About Leoforce

Leoforce builds AI-native agentic platforms that automate and accelerate hiring. Our engineering team focuses on building fast, scalable systems that integrate AI in practical, production-ready ways.

Role Overview

We’re hiring an Engineering Manager with deep technical expertise, strong execution skills, and experience leading teams that deliver production-grade software. You’ll work closely with Product and AI teams to drive architecture, delivery, and performance across backend systems that power our agentic automation platform.

This is a hands-on leadership role. You should be comfortable diving into code, designing scalable systems, and setting a high bar for engineering quality.

Responsibilities

• Lead a team of engineers delivering AI-integrated backend systems
• Design and review architecture for scalability, reliability, and performance
• Guide and unblock engineers across design, implementation, and deployment
• Ensure clean, well-tested code and solid system observability
• Partner with AI, DevOps, and Product to turn concepts into shipped features
• Drive planning, estimates, and team-level execution
• Own hiring, mentorship, and growth within your team

Key Requirements

• 6 to 8 years of experience in backend engineering
• At least 1 to 2 years in a tech lead or engineering manager role
• Strong in system design, API design, and service-oriented architecture
• Proficient in .NET Core (preferred) or similar backend stacks like Python or Node.js
• Experience building distributed systems using microservices and message queues
• Familiarity with AI, LLM APIs, or agent-based workflows (integration or conceptual understanding is sufficient)
• Experience with cloud platforms like Azure or AWS
• Proficiency in containerization using Docker and Kubernetes
• Proven track record of delivering production systems in high-performance environments
• Experience with Kafka, Redis, or other event-streaming and data caching systems
• Exposure to prompt engineering or chaining LLM APIs into workflows
• Experience hiring and building high-performing engineering teams

Why Join Leoforce?

• Work on real AI-first products, not AI add-ons
• Lead architecture and delivery with full ownership
• Build and scale systems from scratch
• Join a strong tech culture focused on clean code and fast execution
