Associate Technical Lead

Codup is scaling up. As we expand our portfolio of complex digital commerce and B2B solutions, we're looking for a talented and insightful Associate Technical Lead to help guide and grow our engineering teams.

If you're passionate about building robust software at scale, mentoring engineers, and driving high-quality technical delivery across multiple concurrent projects — this role is for you.

What You'll Do

Lead engineering teams (dozens of developers across squads specializing in WordPress, Shopify and custom solutions), ensuring adherence to technical direction and ensuring best practices across projects.

Help engineers follow architectural decisions and establish coding standards, driving long-term maintainability and performance.

Conduct trainings and mentor engineers of all levels — running code reviews, sharing knowledge, and helping engineers follow growth paths to develop technical talent.

Collaborate closely with project managers, BAs, designers, QA and stakeholders to ensure requirements are technically sound and projects stay on track.

Contribute hands-on on challenging projects to unblock teams, build critical modules, or prototype complex solutions.

Contribute to robust integration architectures, especially around B2B commerce (ERPs, CRMs, logistics, headless setups, Shopify, WordPress and custom solutions).

Establish and enforce DevOps, CI/CD and QA processes, ensuring consistent, high-quality deliveries.

What We're Building

• Shopify Plus and Shopify ecosystem, including custom apps, extensions & headless solutions (Hydrogen, Remix).
• React, , GraphQL, TypeScript, Tailwind & modern JAMstack architectures.
• WordPress
• Laravel, NestJS, NextJS, VueJS and more custom solutions
• Integrations with ERPs, CRMs, shipping & other B2B systems.
• Explorations into serverless, Gadget and newer commerce stacks.

What We're Looking For

6+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 2+ years in a technical leadership capacity (leading multiple teams or large squads).

Deep expertise in modern JavaScript ecosystems (React, , Laravel, REST, GraphQL, TypeScript) and scalable API-first architectures.

Strong architectural instincts: you know when to pick monolith vs microservices, headless vs monolithic commerce, serverless vs containerized.

Passion for engineering quality — you advocate for automated testing, linting, documentation, and rock-solid CI/CD.

Excellent mentorship skills: you love developing people, sharing your experience, and lifting up juniors and mid-level engineers.

Sharp communication skills, equally comfortable explaining solutions to developers, PMs, or clients.

Experience with complex integrations (ERPs, CRMs, logistics) and high-volume transaction systems is a big plus.

Eagerness to learn new technologies and soft skills to grow as a leader in the engineering industry.

Nice to Haves

Familiarity with Shopify Plus & B2B commerce implementations.

Background in performance-heavy systems, Rust, or serverless.

A curiosity for evolving commerce stacks like Hydrogen & Gadget.

Why Codup?

• Shape the future of our engineering teams: Set the technical tone for dozens of engineers, introduce processes that scale, and architect the next wave of digital commerce solutions.
• Mentor & uplift: Build engineering ladders, share best practices, and leave a mark on Codup's growing tech culture.
• Solve real-world B2B challenges: From robust ERP integrations to high-performance storefronts.
• Grow your career in a collaborative, detail-focused environment that values ownership, quality, and continuous improvement.
