Description & Requirements
Join our team and take the lead on a flagship product delivered for the International Olympic Committee (IOC). We are looking for a hands-on Frontend Tech Lead who combines deep frontend expertise with strong people leadership, delivery excellence, and a consulting mindset.
This is more than a leadership role.
This is your opportunity to shape the digital experience of a global audience.
🌍 Why This Project Is Exceptional
🏅 Work on systems supporting the Olympic ecosystem
📱 Build a flagship mobile and web experience for a historic global event
🌎 Collaborate with international teams across Europe and beyond
⚙️ Deliver high-scale, mission-critical systems that must perform under worldwide attention
🚀 Operate at the forefront of digital transformation
What we expect from you:
Core experience & engineering leadership
- 7+ years in software engineering with strong frontend focus; 2+ years in a technical leadership role (Tech Lead / Staff / Principal).
- Proven track record of delivering large-scale web platforms with a strong emphasis on maintainability, performance, and reliability.
- Hands-on leadership: comfortable being in the code when needed (critical reviews, spikes, unblocking, guiding refactors).
Frontend stack & architecture
- Strong expertise in React + TypeScript and modern frontend patterns.
- Experience building scalable UI foundations: component architecture, reusable libraries, design systems, and/or design tokens.
- Solid grasp of state/data patterns and trade-offs (e.g., client state vs server state, caching, error handling).
- Practical knowledge of performance engineering (profiling, bundle optimization, rendering performance, Core Web Vitals).
- Familiarity with common enterprise UI challenges (data-heavy views, tables/grids).
Cross-team collaboration (Design / FE / BE)
- Strong opinions (and the ability to implement them) on how to improve collaboration between Design, Frontend, and Backend:
- clear handoff processes
- shared ways of working and Definition of Done
- pragmatic contracts between UI and APIs
- reducing rework loops and improving delivery predictability
AI-driven delivery excellence
- Acts as an AI champion: uses AI to measurably improve frontend delivery (speed + quality), e.g.:
- accelerating implementation and refactors
- strengthening test coverage and quality gates
- improving code review effectiveness
- automating repetitive engineering tasks
People leadership & maturity
- Strong people-leadership drive: mentoring, coaching, growing talent, building a high-performing team culture.
- Comfortable running performance and feedback sessions and handling difficult conversations with empathy and clarity.
- High level of professional maturity and accountability.
Consulting mindset
- Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills (including English C1+).
- Confident in tough discussions and being challenged by senior stakeholders.
- Able to structure complex problems, facilitate alignment discussions/workshops, and communicate clearly through concise documentation and simple visuals (e.g., slides) to visualize thinking and align stakeholders.
Logistics
- Willingness to travel up to 20% (Europe / USA), depending on project needs.
Nice to have
- Basic knowledge of Angular (ability to operate in a mixed environment).
- Experience with sports, media, streaming/live-event ecosystems.
- Exposure to real-time UX patterns (live updates, event-driven UI, high-frequency data refresh).
- Client-facing delivery or consulting experience (discovery, estimates, scoping, risk management, PoCs).
As a Frontend Tech Lead (IOC) you will:
- Lead a cross-functional team delivering a flagship IOC application, partnering closely with Product, Design, Backend, QA, and DevOps.
- Own frontend technical direction: architecture, standards, performance strategy, testing strategy, and release readiness.
- Drive delivery excellence: predictable execution, milestones, dependency alignment, risk management, continuous improvement.
- Establish and enforce engineering practices: code quality, review culture, testing discipline, accessibility, observability for frontend.
- Improve collaboration between Design / FE / BE to accelerate delivery and reduce rework.
- Develop the team: mentoring, coaching, regular 1:1s, feedback loops, performance conversations.
- Act as a technology-and-delivery bridge: support discovery, scoping, estimates, and clear documentation when needed.
