About Bizee

Bizee (formerly Incfile) has helped over 1 million entrepreneurs start and run their businesses. We are transforming from a transaction‑focused formation business to an AI‑powered operating system for entrepreneurs.

We champion the everyday entrepreneur. We believe in self‑determination, grit, and earned success. No fluff, no jargon, no pretense. We work hard, ship fast, and let our products speak for themselves.

We are looking for engineers who build with craft and care and want to own a critical piece of the platform that powers the next generation of American businesses.

• AI‑Native Engineering: AI is not a bolt‑on; it is our core. You will build with AI daily, ship AI‑powered features, and coach your squad on how AI changes the way we develop software.
• Own a Domain:
  Your squad owns a critical domain within Bizee's engineering organization. Depending on the squad, that could mean a customer‑facing product journey, a shared platform capability, or core infrastructure that other teams build on. You ship work that directly impacts business outcomes.
• Squad Model with Real Ownership:
  Your squad owns outcomes, not tickets. You have the autonomy to make technical decisions and the accountability to deliver results.
• Craft Matters Here:
  We care about clean code, thoughtful design, and systems that other engineers enjoy working in. Your squad sets the quality standard for your domain.

As a Technical Lead, you lead a squad of 4–6 engineers responsible for one of Bizee's core engineering domains. This could be a product domain (Growth, Customer Experience, Agent Experience, Partner Enablement) or a platform domain (Core Services, Shared Infrastructure, Data Engineering). You are the technical owner for your domain, responsible for both engineering quality and delivery outcomes.

This is a building role with leadership responsibilities. You spend 60%+ of your time writing production code and reviewing PRs. The rest goes to squad coordination, sprint planning, technical mentorship, and cross‑squad alignment. If your approach is to “coordinate and delegate,” this is not the right fit. You are the strongest engineer on your squad, and you prove it every sprint.

This is an AI‑native engineering role. You use AI tools daily to accelerate your own development and actively coach your squad on effective AI adoption. You are building AI‑powered features into our product and intelligent automation into our platform, not just using AI to write boilerplate. We will ask you to demonstrate this with real examples.

Reports to Engineering Manager. Works closely with Product Manager (for product squads), Principal Engineer, and peer Technical Leads on priorities and technical direction.

• Squad Delivery: 85%+ sprint commitment rate for your squad. Weekly releases with zero rollbacks caused by preventable quality issues.
• AI‑Powered Capabilities:
  Ship AI‑powered features, intelligent automation, or reusable platform capabilities into production within your domain that deliver measurable customer or business value.
• Technical Ownership:
  Own and deliver the technical roadmap for your domain. Complete at least 1 major modernization initiative, whether that is decomposing a product monolith boundary or building a new shared platform service.
• Engineering Quality:
  Establish automated testing standards with meaningful coverage improvements. For platform domains, this includes reliability and observability targets alongside test coverage.
• AI Adoption: 100% of your squad actively using AI tools in daily workflows. Demonstrate AI‑assisted development in every sprint review.
• Team Development:
  Each engineer on your squad has a documented growth plan. At least 1 engineer ready for promotion or expanded scope within 12 months.
• Cross‑Squad
  
  Collaboration:
  
  Participate in solution design reviews. Ensure your squad's work creates clean interfaces, APIs, and contracts that other squads can build on. For platform squads, this means your services are well‑documented, observable, and easy for product teams to consume.

• AI‑Native Builder:
  You use AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor,…
