Backend Technical Lead
ImagineX is a tech company that deploys AI-assisted teams to build and secure mission-critical enterprise solutions with our clients – spanning software, data, and AI. Structured like a software company, not a traditional consultancy, we blend deep technical expertise with authentic values, achieving world-class satisfaction (NPS 91). Our dedicated teams specialize in software, data, and AI across the U.S. and LATAM, bridging the gap between boutique agility and enterprise scale.
We're hiring a Backend Tech Lead who combines strong technical depth with the ability to guide, mentor, and elevate a team. You’ll lead backend development efforts, drive architectural decisions, and help the team navigate complexity with confidence. You’ll also bring a genuine curiosity for AI and a passion for building systems that are robust, testable, and future‑ready. This is a 100% remote role (must be located in the US), full-time with competitive salary, bonus, 401K, and more.
What You’ll Do
Lead backend engineering efforts across design, development, testing, and deployment.
Break down complex technical challenges into clear, actionable work for the team.
Foster a collaborative environment where every engineer feels engaged and empowered.
Partner closely with product and business stakeholders to understand the why behind what we build.
Drive best practices in test automation, code quality, and system reliability.
Provide technical mentorship and guidance to engineers of varying experience levels.
Contribute to architectural decisions and long‑term technical strategy.
Explore and integrate AI‑driven capabilities where they add meaningful value.
What You Bring
Soft Skills
Collaborative mindset — you actively engage the entire team and create space for every voice.
Curiosity — you seek to understand the business case, not just the technical requirements.
Ability to handle complexity — you simplify, decompose, and guide others through ambiguity.
Technical Skills
10+ years of backend engineering experience with a track record of delivering production systems.
Test automation expertise — this is essential.
AI experience — professional experience is ideal; personal projects or demonstrated passion are also valuable.
C# experience — nice to have, not required.
Strong understanding of distributed systems, APIs, cloud services, and backend architecture.
Ability to evaluate tradeoffs and make sound technical decisions.
Who Thrives Here
Engineers who love solving hard problems with smart, collaborative people.
Leaders who elevate others rather than operate as lone experts.
Builders who want to understand the business impact behind every line of code.
Curious minds who see AI as an opportunity, not a buzzword.
