Squad Tech Lead (Mobile)

At Q-Tech , we are looking for a Squad Tech Lead on behalf of one of our clients, a leading European tech-driven retail company with millions of active users and an international footprint, to lead a team focused on Design System and mobile applications (iOS/Android/React Native). We're looking for a hybrid profile between engineering manager and tech lead : someone focused on the big picture, decision-making and people growth rather than hands-on low-level coding, since the team already includes very senior technical profiles.

Your responsibilities

Own critical technical decisions for a cross-platform design system, helping the team evaluate trade-offs and balance technical debt against user and developer experience. Manage, coach and grow a multidisciplinary engineering team (ongoing feedback, 1-on-1s, development plans). Drive squad delivery alongside the Product Owner, balancing velocity, quality and business alignment.

Embed accessibility standards (WCAG, native iOS/Android frameworks) into component design. Oversee mobile release lifecycles and CI/CD pipelines (e.g. Fastlane).

What we're looking for

3+ years directly managing software engineering teams, with a genuine ability to lead through influence. Solid technical judgment across frontend/mobile technologies (React, React Native, Swift/iOS, Kotlin/Android). Proven experience making technical decisions in complex environments with no single clear-cut answer. Strong communication skills and ability to work across teams and business stakeholders.

Fluent English and Spanish.

Nice to have

Practical experience with web/mobile accessibility standards (WCAG, Voice. Over, Talk. Back). Experience building or maintaining design system component libraries. Experience in large, multi-team or international/Enterprise environments. Conditions Competitive salary Flexible benefits package (~€3,700 net/year) Private health insurance Remote work allowance (1-2 days office/week) Wellbeing benefits
