Senior Tech Lead (Full Stack)

At Mindbox we connect top IT talents with technology projects for leading enterprises across Europe. 

We’re looking for a Senior Tech Lead to guide technical design and delivery for a Cybersecurity engineering squad. This position blends hands‑on engineering with technical leadership, ensuring robust, secure, and scalable software delivery.

As a key member of the Cybersecurity Assessment & Testing team, you’ll design and deliver Python‑based microservices, integrations, and APIs supporting data, automation, and vulnerability management solutions. You’ll also help introduce AI-assisted engineering and AI‑enabled features that improve detection, prioritisation, and automation within cybersecurity products.

Sounds like your kind of challenge? 

• Lead technical delivery and architecture for engineering squads, providing guidance, unblocking engineers, and ensuring high‑quality outcomes.
• Design and build microservice‑based services, REST APIs, and integrations for cybersecurity use cases.
• Drive DevSecOps practices, including CI/CD pipelines, observability, documentation, and service reliability.
• Implement and coach secure‑by‑design development approaches, ensuring compliance and resilience.
• Build and optimise automation, pipelines, and container deployments (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Develop AI‑powered components and workflows that enhance security operations (triage, summarisation, anomaly detection).
• Promote responsible adoption of AI coding tools and automation within development teams.
• Mentor other engineers through code reviews, pairing, and design sessions while maintaining hands‑on coding responsibilities.

Note: Detailed project information will be shared during the recruitment process. 

• Strong Python engineering expertise (preferably with FastAPI; Flask or Django also welcome).
• Proven experience delivering production‑grade REST APIs and integrations.
• Solid background in microservices and distributed systems design.
• Proficiency in Docker, Kubernetes, Linux administration, network fundamentals (TCP/IP).
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab, GitHub Actions) and test automation.
• Excellent Git fluency and knowledge of branching strategies.
• Strong SQL skills and database interaction experience.
• Demonstrated ability to lead technical teams, make engineering decisions, and uphold coding standards.
• Hands‑on experience with AI‑enabled software (e.g. ML/NLP, LLM‑based tools, or applied AI workflows).
• Clear and structured communication across technical and non‑technical teams.

Nice to have:

• Cybersecurity engineering experience (SAST/DAST integration, threat detection, pen testing concepts).
• Cloud delivery experience (AWS, Azure, GCP) and IaC (Terraform).
• Exposure to monitoring tools (Prometheus) and service meshes.
• Front‑end experience (React, JS frameworks).
• Familiarity with Kafka, RabbitMQ, PostgreSQL, MSSQL, MongoDB.

Joining this project you’ll become part of Mindbox – a tech-driven company where consulting, engineering, and talent meet to build meaningful digital solutions. We’ll back you up every step of the way, accelerate your development, and ensure your skills make a difference.
