Counter - Associate Tech Lead

Background to the role:

In 2024 Northcoders Group launched a new standalone tech consultancy brand, Counter, using aspects of our Incubate proposition. To provide organisations with a new, high quality and affordable onshore technology partner to help them to overcome their unique tech challenges and then to provide long term and sustainable capability. Allowing them to scale, prosper and successfully deliver on their respective missions.

Working with a team of advisors and consultancy experts, we have devised innovative Discovery Frameworks and workshops that will help our clients uncover and understand their technical and strategic challenges that may be blocking their route to productivity, revenue or profitability.

Once we understand clients’ challenges, we will assemble and land teams of highly skilled UK based technical problem solvers, handpicked from our diverse and highly sought after Northcoders and Tech Returners talent pools. These consultants will be selected on technical excellence as well as cultural alignment to respective clients so that they can seamlessly deliver the precious business value they need at speed.

The consultant teams will be mentored by dedicated Tech Leads ensuring that every team member is technically and strategically aligned with our client’s mission and up-skilled to deliver within our client’s technology stack, working practices and ceremonies. The Associate Tech Lead role is a transitional role towards tech lead. It provides an environment in which an individual can up-skill towards becoming a tech lead whilst being largely focused on internal and managed service Counter offerings.

- Clients will often require travel and whilst we will focus on clients within a commutable distance you can expect the potential for travelling to the clients office on a form of regular cadence when in a tech lead or supporting tech lead role capacity.

The Associate Tech Lead role is a transitional role towards tech lead.

Associate tech leads operate on a Counter live project as an individual contributor whilst working towards taking on their own project (as a Tech Lead) in the future.

Outside of the on project requirements, an Associate Tech Lead can be expected to be supported by the Technical Director and existing Tech Lead individuals to develop their knowledge and progress towards a Tech Lead role deployed on engagement.
