About Us
Launched in 2019, Constructor is an AI-first ecommerce search and discovery platform that helps shoppers find the right products at the right time and enables leading global e-commerce brands to drive meaningful revenue and conversion gains.
About The Role
We are hiring a technical lead to define the developer experience for the Customer Dashboard that is used by the world's largest retailers – Sephora, Target, Petco – to control their product discovery experience. You will define what Customer Dashboard developer experience looks like at Constructor – and your work will multiply the impact of every engineer on the dashboard.
Requirements
What You'll Do
You and your team will own three areas:
- Dashboard reliability – infrastructure, monitoring, alerting, incident response, CI/CD pipelines
- Developer experience – tooling, development environment, design system, agentic coding infrastructure
- Platform capabilities – authorization, audit logging, configuration management, and other features that provide horizontal value across the dashboard
You’ll lead a small team, spending roughly 50% of your time on technical work, 20% on team leadership, and 30% working across teams. Success looks like: reduced build times, fewer production incidents with lesser impact, and teams reporting that the platform makes them more effective.
Preferred Qualifications
- Platform engineering experience – you've built internal tools, developer platforms, or infrastructure that other engineers depend on
- Full-stack technical depth – strong hands-on experience with React & TypeScript + Node.js backend experience
- Infrastructure and operations experience – you have experience building & maintaining CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, and alerting; you've been on-call and handled production incidents
- Leadership experience – you've led projects, mentored engineers, or managed a small team; formal management experience preferred but not required
- Systems thinking – you think in tradeoffs and understand how decisions affect multiple teams
- Communication skills – you'll work across 7 teams and need to influence without authority
- Comfort with ambiguity – you can take a vague problem and structure an approach
