Technical Team Lead in Eindhoven

Technical Team Lead - Eindhoven I'm partnered with a growing retail company based in Eindhoven that has spent the past few years building a stronger, more capable technical organisation. Having established a solid foundation at home, we're now expanding internationally - with recent launches in Belgium, France and Germany, and further markets on the roadmap. They're looking for a Technical Team Lead to help their engineering team scale in step with the business - someone who can combine hands‑on technical leadership with the structure and rigour to make key decisions. This is a role for someone who is equally comfortable in the detail (code quality, architecture decisions, sprint execution) and in the bigger picture (roadmap planning, stakeholder conversations, team development). Key Responsibilities:

Lead, coach and grow a team of 5 engineers, fostering a culture of ownership, quality, and continuous improvement. Act as a trusted sparring partner to the Head of Technology, contributing to technical strategy and decision‑making, and challenging ideas constructively. Define, track and report on core technical KPIs (e.g. delivery velocity, system reliability, code quality, deployment frequency) that give the business clear visibility into team performance. Own the team’s execution - planning, prioritisation, sprint cadence - ensuring commitments are realistic and consistently met. Safeguard code quality, architectural decisions and engineering best practices across the team’s output. Work closely with product, operations, and other business stakeholders to align technical delivery with business priorities. Contribute to the team’s growth plan, including hiring, onboarding and development of team members as the company scales. What We're Looking For:

Strong hands‑on technical background - able to earn credibility with the team and stay close enough to the work to make informed decisions. Skilled in Python Knowledge of Cloud and APIs is a nice too have. A track record of setting and managing KPIs that meaningfully improve team performance and delivery predictability. Strong communication skills; fluent in Dutch. A natural coach and people leader who genuinely enjoys developing others. What’S on Offer:

A salary of up to €100,000, depending on experience. Above market pension plan. Hybrid working (2-days from home). Staff discounts! A pivotal role in a company at an exciting inflection point - scaling technically and geographically. Direct partnership with the Head of Technology and real influence over technical direction.
