Lead Full Stack Engineer (Laravel, Remote NL/UK Based)

WorkwizeAmsterdamHybridFull-time21 Sept 2026

Workwize is hiring a Lead Full Stack Engineer to lead feature work end to end, coach engineers, and drive technical and process improvements. The role requires 8+ years of software engineering experience at product companies, deep architecture skills, and default use of AI and agents in development. Based in Amsterdam with a flexible hybrid work environment.

What you'll do

Lead feature work end to end: shape the scope with the PM, make the architectural calls, decide what to cut, and own whether it actually worked once it's live.
Use agents and AI tooling as your default way of building, and pull the rest of the team up to where you are.
Coach the engineers around you, including the ones who are not junior. Pairing, review, handing over scope, and direct feedback that changes how someone works.
Change how we work without asking permission first. Spot the process that's costing the team time, build the case, get the buy in, and show the before and after.
Be a real partner to the EM and PM. Push back on the roadmap, bring the problem nobody had noticed, and say the uncomfortable thing early rather than politely late.
Connect what you ship to what the company is trying to achieve, with a number you chose and then went back and looked at.
