Want to be a part of a company that’s making a difference? We’re a growing global tech company committed to delivering solutions that protect people and the planet for future generations. Our team focuses on creating meaningful impact for customers.

We’re on a mission to protect people and the planet by building and deploying transformative software. Join Eco Online and contribute to driving positive change.

Help Build The Platform Behind Eco Online's Product Ecosystem:
We are building the shared platform services that power and connect our suite of products.

We’re looking for a Platform Engineering Team Lead to manage experienced engineers responsible for core services such as identity, authentication, user management, hierarchy services, access management, enterprise integrations, and product connectivity.

This hybrid leadership role combines people management, technical leadership, and hands‑on engineering. Approximately 60-70% of your time will focus on leading and developing a team of senior engineers, driving delivery, supporting technical decision‑making, and maintaining engineering standards. The remaining 30-40% will be spent contributing directly through architecture, design, code reviews, technical problem‑solving, and software development.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys leading engineers but doesn’t want to step away from hands‑on development.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead, mentor, and develop a team of senior platform engineers.
  • Drive delivery across Eco Online’s shared platform services, including identity, access management, enterprise integrations, and product connectivity.
  • Balance people leadership with hands‑on engineering, architecture, and technical decision‑making.
  • Own and promote high standards across security, quality, reliability, and operational excellence.
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, Cloud Ops, and Security teams to deliver scalable platform solutions.
  • Champion AI‑assisted and agentic development practices across the team.
What We're Looking For
  • Strong software engineering background in PHP, .NET, or similar backend technologies.
  • Experience leading or managing software engineers in a modern SaaS environment.
  • Hands‑on AWS experience and familiarity with Infrastructure as Code.
  • Strong understanding of microservices architecture and distributed systems.
  • Experience designing secure, scalable, and reliable software solutions.
  • Practical experience using AI‑assisted development tools and modern engineering practices.
  • Strong communication, stakeholder management, and mentoring skills.
What We're Looking For
  • Identity and Access Management (OAuth2, OIDC, SAML, SSO).
  • Event‑driven architectures and messaging platforms such as Apache Kafka.
  • Experience working with security and compliance frameworks such as SOC 2 or ISO 27001.
  • Python, machine learning, or AI‑related development experience.
Our Benefits
  • Generous Paid Time Off
  • Extended Parental Leave
  • Robust Health Coverage
  • Accelerated Learning Paths
  • Team Wellness Initiatives
  • Company‑wide Events
  • Employee Resource Groups
  • Recognition awards
