Project description

The Lead Software Engineer role at Tricentis sits at the intersection of technical excellence and
team effectiveness. You will drive the architectural and technical direction of your team while staying
hands-on — owning critical engineering decisions, removing blockers, and helping translate
strategy into execution.
NeoLoad helps enterprises test at scale — think Black Friday traffic, mission-critical banking
systems, global SaaS platforms. Our customers depend on us to ensure their applications won't fail
when millions of users hit them simultaneously. You will work with our Prague and Gemenos
engineering teams across product streams that span AI-powered testing capabilities, enterprise
integrations, and full-stack product development.

Responsibilities

What You'll Actually Do

bullet icon

Drive technical decision-making for your team: define architectural patterns, evaluate

bullet icon

technology choices, and ensure decisions are well-reasoned, documented, and socialised.

bullet icon

Own the tactical execution of your team's engineering roadmap — break down ambiguous

bullet icon

problems into well-scoped work, maintain delivery momentum, and proactively surface risks

bullet icon

before they become blockers.

bullet icon

Stay hands-on: contribute to critical parts of the codebase, lead by example in code quality

bullet icon

and engineering practices, and take ownership of the most complex technical problems.

bullet icon

Collaborate closely with Product and UX from discovery through delivery — challenge

bullet icon

requirements, propose better solutions, and ensure the team builds the right thing, not just

bullet icon

any thing.

bullet icon

Work across the NeoLoad product and platform — spanning core test execution engines,

bullet icon

integrations, and the UIs that make complex data accessible for enterprise users.

bullet icon

Set and uphold engineering standards across the team: code reviews, design reviews, testing

bullet icon

discipline, and operational readiness.

bullet icon

Lead production incident response for your team — coordinate investigation and resolution,

bullet icon

ensure clear communication during incidents, and own post-incident reviews that drive lasting

bullet icon

improvements.

bullet icon

Act as a technical bridge between your team and the broader engineering organisation —

bullet icon

aligning on cross-team dependencies, reusable patterns, and platform direction.

Skills

Must have

bullet icon

Proven experience driving technical architecture in distributed, event-driven SaaS systems.

7+ years overall experience as a Software Engineer,

4+ years on a similar technology stack (TypeScript/React on the frontend, Java and Spring or similar framework on the backend)

bullet icon

comfortable owning both.

bullet icon

At least 2 years of experience working with SaaS aplications, API and microservices development

bullet icon

Solid experience with API and microservices development; good grasp of distributed, event driven SaaS architecture.

bullet icon

Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and application security fundamentals.

bullet icon

Good experience with relational databases (MSSQL, PostgreSQL, MySQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB, Cassandra, DynamoDB).

bullet icon

Familiarity with build pipelines, CI/CD, and frontend/backend tooling.

Nice to have
