We are looking for a Lead Software Engineer to join our EMEA Engineering team in France (remote).
What does a Lead Software Engineer at CoderPad do?
As a Lead Software Engineer at CoderPad, you’ll design, build, and ship features across our full stack — taking ownership of complex technical problems end to end and raising the engineering bar for the EMEA team. You’ll combine hands-on coding with technical leadership: driving architecture decisions, backlog grooming and planning with the Product Manager, making sure what we ship is reliable, scalable, and a pleasure for developers to use.
As the global leader in the technical interview space (4,000+ customers in 165+ countries) it is our goal as a Engineering team to build and scale the products that power millions of technical interviews and assessments worldwide.
This role is located in France and works standard CET / CEST hours, collaborating asynchronously with our distributed EMEA and US teams.
What you’ll be doing
•
Design and develop new full-stack features (React / TypeScript on the frontend, Java, Node.js, or Ruby on the backend) in collaboration with the Product Manager and the designer.
•
Use AI coding assistants and agents (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) as a core part of your workflow — to accelerate feature delivery, automate repetitive engineering tasks, and offload boilerplate so you can focus on design and review.
•
Contribute to architectural and technical design decisions within the team.
•
Write automated tests and ensure code quality through code reviews.
•
Deploy and monitor your own features in production (GitLab, AWS, Kubernetes).
•
Contribute to the continuous improvement of the team’s engineering practices.
•
Partner with Product and other teams to scope, prioritise, and deliver impactful work.
What you should bring
•
6+ years of professional software engineering experience, including senior or lead-level ownership
•
Proficiency in at least one backend language (Java, Ruby, Node.js), a modern frontend framework (ideally React), and SQL. You don’t need to master all technologies from day one.
•
Solid experience designing scalable, reliable systems and conducting thorough code reviews.
•
Comfortable working autonomously in a distributed, remote-first environment.
•
Hands-on experience leveraging AI tools to ship faster — code generation, agentic workflows, scripting/automation, or building internal tooling on top of LLMs. We care about how effectively you use these tools, not which ones.
•
Professional working proficiency in English.
