Tech Lead — Full Stack (On-Site)

About Attention

At Attention, we’re transforming how go-to-market teams operate by turning every customer interaction into structured data, insights, and intelligent action. Our GTM platform helps organizations execute faster, learn continuously, and make every deal cycle more efficient and predictable.

We’re trusted by teams at Scale AI, Lovable, BambooHR, Elise AI, Abridge, and hundreds of other rapidly growing companies and we’re just getting started.

We believe the best AI products will feel deeply human-centered. Rather than replacing sales representatives, our agents help them answer critical questions and automate manual work:

• Which deals need attention and what are the next steps?

• How much revenue do we expect this quarter based on our sales pipeline?

• Why did we win or lose this deal and how do we improve for next time?

What You’ll Do

We use AI to reinvent how we build. Internally, we’ve built agents to augment every stage of the software development lifecycle from investigating issues, filing tickets, and drafting implementation plans to writing code, testing changes, communicating releases, and more. This has helped our team respond much more quickly to incidents, ship faster while maintaining quality, and focus on the product, technical, and strategic decisions that improve our platform and actually drive outcomes for our customers.

As a Tech Lead at Attention, you’ll be a technical anchor on the team. You’ll own important product surfaces, lead technical decisions, and help build the systems, tools, and workflows that enable engineers and coding agents to do their best work together.

Technical Leadership

• Lead complex projects from an ambiguous problem through architecture, delivery, and long-term ownership.

• Set a high bar for architecture, code quality, and engineering judgment and level up the engineers around you.

• Help define how engineers and agents work together across planning, implementation, testing, review, and production operations.

Product Mindset

• Work closely with product and design to decide what to build and determine the right technical approach.

• Develop a deep understanding of our users and bring strong product judgment to technical decisions.

• Champion a high-quality user experience across reliability, performance, usability, and craft.

Scaling and Reliability

• Help evolve products and systems from early traction to broader adoption and greater complexity.

• Own the reliability, observability, performance, and maintainability of the systems you build.

• Improve the engineering foundations, tools, and agent-driven workflows that help the broader team scale.

What We Look For

Must Have

• 6+ years of professional software engineering experience.

• At least 3 years at a single company, demonstrating continued ownership and progression.

• Experience owning meaningful customer-impacting workflows.

• Demonstrated experience helping a product or system scale from 1→N.

• Strong product judgment and a demonstrated sense of engineering and product craft.

• Experience leading important technical initiatives and increasing the effectiveness of other engineers.

• Strong frontend fundamentals and solid experience architecting and owning backend services, APIs, and data models.

• Experience operating production software, including testing, observability, CI/CD, and incident response.

• The ability to take an open-ended problem, form a clear technical approach, and execute with limited direction.

• Willingness to work in-office five days a week at our NoHo office.

We care more about the depth of your ownership and judgment than exact keyword alignment with every part of our stack.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Postgres, event-driven architectures, Kafka, or Temporal.

• Experience building AI-powered products or production LLM integrations.

• Experience at a product-led or high-growth technology company.

• History of leading migrations, platform improvements, reliability work, or other team-wide technical initiatives.

Culture

• Passionate about Attention’s mission and deeply empathetic toward our users.

• Excited to rethink how software is built in an environment where agents are active participants in the development process.

• Comfortable working closely with product, design, leadership, and customers.

• Takes responsibility for outcomes, not only assigned tasks.

• Holds strong opinions while remaining open to better ideas.

• Cares deeply about quality while making pragmatic tradeoffs.

• Thrives in fast-moving environments and helps others navigate ambiguity.
