Lead Engineer — High Growth & Quality Excellence

Build the future of human potential with AI, science, and purpose.

At Marlee we’re building the world’s most intelligent technology for human and team collaboration and performance — where AI meets motivational science to help every person and team reach their full potential.

Today, Marlee is used by 96,000+ teams in 195 countries, including 70% of the Fortune 500 and 90% of the Fortune 100. We’re backed by some of the most visionary in tech and venture — including the founders of Canva and Google Maps, as well as Salesforce Ventures, Black Nova, Soma Capital, and Investible.

We’re looking for a Senior Lead Engineer who’s passionate about building quality systems and teams that are elegant, reliable, and deeply human.

Your mission

Lead the evolution of Marlee’s global AI platform — empowering millions to understand themselves and collaborate better, every single day.

As our Senior Lead Engineer, you’ll :

  • Architect and build scalable, secure, and high-performance systems across our modern stack (Node.js, React, GraphQL, AWS).
  • Set the bar for quality excellence — owning standards for testing, reliability, security, performance, and developer experience.
  • Integrate AI to enhance productivity and quality — from automated QA to agentic development tools.
  • Mentor and inspire other engineers, creating an environment and culture of learning, accountability, and continuous improvement.
  • Partner cross-functionally with Product, Design, and Machine Learning to transform motivational science into powerful, usable technology.
  • Shape the future of Marlee’s architecture — influencing long-term strategy, infrastructure, and AI scalability.

You’re probably a match if you...

  • Have 5+ years building production systems (web apps, APIs, distributed services).
  • Built systems from scratch and / or scaled existing systems.
  • Are product minded and confident outlining technical design and strategy.
  • Have had a role as a lead engineer before.
  • Thrive taking a product brief and figuring out the most efficient quality pathway to production.
  • You love being hands on in the code and also steering and guiding technical direction of a technology.
  • You are outcome focused and thrive in fast-changing, high-growth environments — balancing speed with precision.
  • Are incredibly curious and interested in how AI can amplify human capability and creativity.
  • Why you’ll love it at Marlee

  • Impact : Build technology trusted by the world’s most forward-thinking companies.
  • Purpose : Be part of a global movement unlocking human potential through AI.
  • Quality : Lead engineering craft and innovation at a company obsessed with excellence.
  • Growth : Be a foundational leader shaping our systems, tools, and culture.
  • Reward : Competitive salary + Employee Shares Options Plan – we share in success.
  • Flexibility : Hybrid flexibility based out of Sydney HQ.
  • Development : Access to Marlee’s own coaching and performance programs.
  • Not a 100% match? – we still want to hear from you!

    As a company focused on unlocking human potential we know there are exceptionally talented people that may not yet have all of our wish list. If you are truly excited about our opportunity and not a 100% match - please do apply anyway!

    Ready to help the world work better, together?

    Send your LinkedIn, resume, and a short note on why you care about AI, excellence, and human potential to hello@marlee.com

    Join us to build technology that is a force for good.
