As a lead software engineer, you will coordinate the development activities and technical decisions to make sure projects are properly defined architecture-wise and then successfully completed within the agreed parameters (timeline, performance, security and scalability characteristics). You will be primarily technology-focused, but should also display leadership skills and act as a mentor for less experienced developers/team members.

We know this is a demanding role, but you won’t be alone in your expedition - fellow senior technical colleagues will assist you as advisors and the company’s processes will provide a well-defined framework for overcoming any hurdle.

If you're enthusiastic, passionate about developing software development and are looking to use your skills to build projects that address complex business challenges, then you’re a perfect fit for the Zitec team!

• A community driven by courage and creativity (we have our own beer and our own band that sings about us) is challenging you to have serious fun with us;
• We designed benefits that give you the power to create balance in life, on and off work.
• As a Lead Software Engineer (Frontend) you will:
