Development Team Leader

Tech is at the center of everything we do at Fiverr and we're looking for people who are builders at their core. From developers to visionaries and everything in between, we want minds who aren't just interested in putting the pieces together but who can find new ways to innovate. Solid communication, creative problem solving and business understanding are all prerequisites. So, if you're tech savvy, inquisitive, and ready to take the road less traveled, the Fiverr Technology team might be right for you.

We're looking for a brilliant Development Team Leader to step in and lead a critical backend engineering team, ensuring our product roadmap stays on track and our systems remain stable. This is a high-impact opportunity to provide leadership, drive successful project delivery, and foster the growth of talent within our dynamic environment.

• You are a true Technical Solver, leading your backend team not just through direction, but through the kind of deep technical judgment that turns hard problems into clear paths forward.

• Brings a solid background in production support and incident management, ensuring system reliability and swift resolution of issues.

• Excels at providing technical mentorship and conducting effective code reviews for engineers at varying experience levels.

• Possesses excellent cross-functional collaboration skills, adept at navigating dependencies and fostering alignment with partner teams.

• Deep understanding and practical application of Agile methodologies to optimize team workflows and delivery.

• Demonstrates strong experience in technical project management, driving complex software development roadmaps from conception to delivery.

Nice to have

• Experience working with mobile application development teams or integrating services with native mobile platforms.

• Familiarity with modern security best practices and architectural patterns in a SaaS environment.

• Prior experience in a fast-growing tech company, navigating scale-up challenges.

Working with AI

While human leadership, intuition, and mentorship remain paramount, this role will leverage AI-powered tools such as project management assistants to identify potential timeline risks and automate routine reporting. AI will also support in code analysis to flag potential security vulnerabilities, allowing you to focus on strategic guidance and complex problem-solving.
