Hi, you finally found us!

Why work at Blue Coding?

At Blue Coding we specialize in hiring excellent developers and amazing people from all over Latin America and other parts of the world. For the past 10 years, we’ve helped cutting-edge companies in the United States and Canada -both large and small, build great development teams and develop great products. Online shops, digital agencies, SaaS providers, and software consulting firms are a few of our clients. Our team of over 100 engineers is distributed in more than 10 countries across the Americas. We are a fully remote company working with a wide array of technologies and have expertise in every stage of the software development process.

Our team is highly connected, united, and culturally diverse, and our collaborators are involved in many initiatives around the world, from wildlife preservation to volunteering at local charities. We also participate in group activities like movie nights, trivia, and meme competitions. We stand for honesty, fairness, respect, efficiency, hard work, and cooperation.

What are we looking for?

We’re currently seeking a Engineer Team Lead to join the team of one of our international clients. This fast-growing tech company is redefining portfolio management in the world of mortgage trading and asset management.

This is an exciting opportunity to work on a modern platform built from the ground up, using scalable architecture and cloud-native technologies. You’ll play a key role in designing, building, and maintaining backend services, while also contributing to architectural decisions and helping to provide guidance to others across our small engineering team

If you’re independent, a great communicator, a problem solver, and someone who pays close attention to detail, you’ll thrive in this role. Our positions are 100% remote — as long as you’re located in one of the listed countries and can deliver high-quality work, you can work from anywhere you want.

Join us to make an impact in the FinTech space and help shape the future of portfolio management — all while enjoying the freedom and flexibility of remote work.

Here are some of the exciting day-to-day challenges you will face in this role:

  • Design, develop, and maintain the client’s platform, using TypeScript and Node.js
  • Build and consume RESTful APIs for efficient and secure client-server communication
  • Design clear, versioned API endpoints and maintain comprehensive internal documentation
  • Integrate with third-party APIs and external systems as needed
  • Work with containerised services in Docker and manage SQL within our Postgres databases
  • Collaborate closely with product, design, and engineering teams to deliver end-to-end features
  • Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code
  • Participate in code reviews and contribute to architectural and technical decisions
  • Utilize CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions) and cloud services (AWS) for deployment and operations
  • Provide technical leadership within the backend team, influencing best practices in architecture, scalability, and performance
  • Support other engineers in our small team (circa 5 engineers) through guidance, occasional pair programming, and knowledge-sharing
  • Help to drive engineering standards, tooling, and processes
  • Assist with keeping the engineering team organised and unblocked, in collaboration with our product manager engineering leadership

You will shine if you have these:

  • Leadership capability
  • Strong hands-on experience with TypeScript, NodeJS
  • Experience with PostgreSQL, Sequelize
  • Experience with React is a plus
  • Experience with Docker
  • Testing experience with Playwright
  • Familiarity or knowledge with AWS
  • Strong communication, client services, and interpersonal skills
  • Knowledge or experience with either credit, mortgages, trading platforms, or environments is a plus.

Here are some of the perks we offer you:

  • Salary in USD
  • Long-term
  • Flexible schedule (within US Time zones)
  • 100% Remote
