## About the role

As an Engineering Lead at Counterpart, you are the architect and tech lead for a domain: the claims system, the underwriting platform, the infrastructure layer, or another area where the systems are tightly coupled and need one person keeping them honest. You know how your systems work, how they should evolve, and where they break. You own the technical vision for them.

## What they're looking for

- Deep experience designing, building, and operating complex software systems. You have built systems that lasted and maintained systems you inherited
- The ability to operate as both architect and individual contributor. You know which the situation calls for and you do not default to one
- Demonstrated experience reviewing technical work from other engineers. You turn reviews into decisions, not debates. You can say no with clear reasoning and say yes with conviction
- Proficiency with Python, Django, Amazon Web Services (AWS), React, and PostgreSQL
- Proficiency developing with AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor, or similar) and the drive to stay ahead of how AI development practices are evolving
- Experience setting technical direction across teams without being the manager. You influence through architecture, reviews, and the quality of your own work
