The role

At Inditex, we are evolving our way of building technology.

In a global company like Inditex, technology is key to making the business work every day: in stores, ecommerce, logistics, transport, distribution, people, or finance.

That is why we are changing how we work: small and autonomous teams, reducing intermediation and giving more space to technical responsibility, judgment, and team autonomy.

We believe that the best products arise when engineering understands the full context in which it operates: the people who use them, the business processes, the data, and the technology that connects them.

We are looking for Tech Leads to accompany small and stable teams working on products and platforms critical to the business.

The Tech Lead role is a role of close technical reference, responsible for helping the team make good technical decisions today without compromising the future of the product.

In this model, technical decisions are made close to the problem, architecture evolves incrementally, and quality and scalability are part of the daily work.

What you'll do

You will understand how the product fits within the technological and business ecosystem.

You will have context regarding the operational processes that depend on the systems you build.

You will help the team anticipate impacts, dependencies, and technical risks.

You will participate from early stages in the definition of the technical solution.

You will design and evolve distributed services architectures.

Backend and frontend.

Data modeling.

Integrations and APIs.

You will manage technical debt consciously and with priority.

You will actively program on a day-to-day basis.

You will review code and propose improvements.

You will accompany the team in design and implementation decisions.

You will drive best practices in testing, quality, and maintainability.
