About Odin

Odin Labs, Inc. ("Odin") is the workforce visibility and compliance platform powering the next generation of infrastructure. As demand accelerates for AI data centers, clean energy projects, and large-scale construction, Odin provides the operational backbone for real-time workforce tracking, credential verification, site access, and compliance management. We experienced more than 7x revenue growth from 2024 to 2025, and 2026 has already surpassed 2025 growth.

Odin’s growth is driven by rapid expansion and adoption of our software platform across complex, high-compliance construction environments. As we continue to see strong market momentum and a growth in complex construction programs, Odin is preparing for its next stage of scale.

We are hiring Lead Software Engineers to anchor an autonomous engineering team h team has 2-3 engineers and takes a scoped project from technical design through development, QA, and release, with the autonomy to decide how, once we've aligned on what. As the lead on one of these teams, you are the technical owner of that project.

You make the calls on how things get built, within the patterns and standards the engineering team has set, and you help raise that bar over time. You keep execution on track, and you mentor the 1-2 engineers working alongside you. You are not a people manager. You are the engineer the rest of the team looks to when a technical decision needs to get made and the one most accountable for whether the project ships well.

You work as a peer to other engineering leads and partner closely with product, which scopes work and coordinates releases. Together you set the technical bar for product engineering at Odin.

• Product defines what the team is building, who it's for, how we'll know it's done, and how long we have to do it. You take it from there.
• Partner with product during scoping to surface technical risk, push back on what isn't buildable, and make sure the team is set up to deliver.
• Take a scoped project from product handoff to production. Build the technical plan, slice it into vertical stories that each ship something users can see, and lead delivery within the time budget product has set.
• Hold the seams together so the pieces ship as a cohesive feature, not a collection of stories that technically met their acceptance criteria.
• Write production code across the stack. In a given week you might design a Postgres schema, build the API on top of it, wire it into the web app, and add a React Native screen that uses it. You will not be exclusively in any one of these.
• Make and defend architectural decisions within your team, within the patterns and standards the engineering team has set, and drive changes to those patterns with your peers when you find a better way.
• Own the output quality of your team and the call on when code is ready to deploy to production. You are accountable for what reaches product for release validation.
• Your team decides when code reaches production. Product decides when customers see the feature. Use feature flags, incremental rollouts, and other release strategies to keep these two decisions independent.
• Build the observability, alerting, and operational instincts to know when something's wrong before a customer tells you. Take your turn on call when something goes wrong anyway. Code that runs in production is your team's responsibility, not someone else's.
• Level up the engineers on your team through code review, technical writeups, and direct feedback. You raise the bar for the people around you and hold yourself to the same standard.
• Improve how your team works, not just what they ship. Automate what can be automated, catch problems earlier in the cycle, and build the safety nets that let the team move with confidence.
• Build first-hand knowledge of how Odin's customers actually work. Visit jobsites, sit with workers and security teams, watch the product in use in a guard booth or trailer. Carry that understanding into every technical tradeoff you make.
