Overview:

As Flare continues to grow, we need engineering teams that can deliver quickly without compromising technical quality, product usability, or long-term scalability.

As an R&D Team Leader, you will lead a full-stack team of Backend and Frontend developers responsible for designing and delivering high-quality software solutions. You will combine hands-on technical judgment with people leadership, guiding projects from ideation through delivery while creating an environment where engineers can grow and do their best work.

You will own your team’s execution, technical direction, and development. Working closely with Product Managers and other stakeholders, you will help translate business priorities into clear technical plans, remove obstacles, and make thoughtful decisions that balance immediate delivery needs with robust architecture and long-term code quality.
