The Opportunity

Our client are a well-regarded Auckland digital consultancy who are looking for a Tech Lead that genuinely understands the "why" behind what they build, can talk confidently with clients, and is ready to grow into a leadership position. If you're someone who stays curious, uses AI as a genuine tool in your work, and can explain architecture to a room of stakeholders without breaking a sweat, keep reading.

The Role
  • Lead technical delivery across varied client engagements, from full-stack builds to complex legacy integrations
  • Work directly with clients to understand needs and shape solutions, not just execute briefs
  • Explain technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
  • Contribute to pre-sales conversations and proposal development alongside the leadership team
  • Champion security, architecture, and engineering best practice by explaining the reasoning, not just following convention
  • Grow into line management responsibilities as you settle in
What You'll Bring
Must-haves:
  • Solid software engineering foundations, you understand how architecture fits together and can articulate why decisions are made
  • Strong communicator who can simplify the complex without losing accuracy
  • Genuinely AI-savvy, you use AI tools daily and know how to get good outcomes from them
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and adapting across different tech stacks and environments
  • Curious by nature, you ask why, not just how
Nice-to-haves:
  • Consulting or client-facing experience
  • Exposure to pre-sales or solution design conversations
  • Experience mentoring or leading small teams
Why This Role
  • A clear pathway into technical leadership with line management responsibility on the horizon
  • Genuinely varied work, no two projects are the same
  • An AI-forward team that is actively evolving how it works, your input is welcome
  • A culture that values curiosity and communication as much as technical depth
  • Be part of a sharp, collaborative team that takes quality seriously
