Yakeey is a rapidly expanding PropTech firm headquartered in Casablanca, Morocco, dedicated to simplifying and accelerating real‑estate transactions through a unified digital platform. The platform encompasses a property marketplace, a credit application and processing system, and a valuation tool, all powered by a modern data architecture that supports analytics, reporting, and AI‑driven services.
As the Technical Lead, you will be at the forefront of product delivery, guiding a team of approximately four developers to implement high‑quality features that align with Yakeey’s product roadmap and architectural standards. Your responsibilities will span the entire development lifecycle: from translating product requirements and architectural designs into clear, actionable tasks, to overseeing implementation, ensuring code quality, and maintaining alignment with the company’s micro‑services architecture.
Key duties include:
- Leading and coordinating a small engineering team, fostering collaboration and ensuring timely delivery of product features.
- Architecting and reviewing solutions within your scope, guaranteeing consistency with overall platform architecture and design principles.
- Actively contributing to hands‑on development, writing clean, maintainable code, and championing best practices in Java/Spring Boot and related technologies.
- Mentoring team members, providing guidance on technical challenges, code quality, testing, and professional growth.
- Collaborating closely with product managers, architects, and cross‑functional teams to refine requirements, anticipate dependencies, and plan releases.
- Driving continuous improvement by identifying opportunities to enhance development processes, CI/CD pipelines, testing, and documentation.
We are looking for a candidate with:
- Strong background in backend engineering (Java, Spring Boot) and familiarity with front‑end frameworks such as React/Next.js.
- Experience leading a small development team or acting as a technical mentor.
- Deep understanding of micro‑services architecture, RESTful API design, and cloud platforms (AWS). Experience with Kubernetes and Terraform is a plus.
- Ability to interpret architecture and design documents and translate them into implementation plans.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills to work effectively with engineers, product managers, and architects.
- Commitment to quality, including writing clean, maintainable code and promoting best practices in testing and code review.
- Experience in fintech, proptech, or other regulated domains is advantageous; proficiency in French or Arabic is a plus.
The role offers a hybrid working model (office and remote), a competitive compensation package, and the opportunity to shape and deliver features that drive Yakeey’s mission to transform real‑estate transactions. If you are a strong developer ready to lead and inspire a team, we would love to hear from you.
