Want to build cities with code? 🏙️

Imagine you're the one shaping the future of urban life, not with blueprints and steel, but with data and code. At Plaace, that's exactly what you do. As our Tech Lead, you'll be a master builder of our platform, laying the foundations for growth, designing the blueprints for new features, and making sure all the different districts of our tech stack connect and thrive.

This isn't a role for someone who prefers to follow an old map. This is for you who want to be actively shaping the architecture of a platform that’s already transforming how our cities evolve.

About Us

Plaace is a fast-growing Norwegian tech scale-up on a mission to create vibrant streets and cities that people truly love. Our platform combines state-of-the-art analytics with newly available data sources to power smarter, data-driven decisions for everyone who wants to understand and shape the physical world. We have established valuable strategic partnerships with key data providers, including Telia and BankAxept. These collaborations ensure we have access to the comprehensive data required to develop our insights. We’re already trusted by leading retailers, restaurants, gyms, and service providers, including Elkjøp, Eplehuset, and SATS, as well as the public sector and major property owners. Together, we’re transforming how locations are chosen and how our cities evolve.

The Opportunity

As our Tech Lead, you will join us at a pivotal stage where the foundations are already laid. We have spent the last five years building a robust platform and have already secured over 100 customers in the Nordics. You won’t be starting from scratch; instead, you'll be joining an exciting scaling phase with a unique opportunity to play a central role in building out our new tech team and shaping the future direction of the entire development department. You will be a key part of a company that is challenging major market players by offering more user-friendly and effective solutions.

You'll serve as the hands-on Tech Lead, primarily dedicated to the PLG (Product-Led Growth) team. Your core focus will be on coding and guiding the team while owning the technical vision and ensuring architectural and development alignment across the teams. You will report to the CTO (Peder) on technical matters and collaborate closely with the COO (Tobias) on product strategy.

🏗️ What you will be doing

You'll be hands-on, contributing directly to our codebase across the stack. You'll also take the lead in driving good practices for testing, CI/CD, and ensuring a clean, maintainable codebase that serves as a solid foundation for our product.

Oversee the architectural design, working with the team to ensure our systems are scalable, secure, and well-structured.
Collaborate cross-functionally with designers, product managers, and commercial colleagues to create a product that balances customer needs with business goals.
Shape the future by making our platform AI-friendly and ready for Product-Led Growth (PLG).

👤 Who we're looking for

We are looking for someone who enjoys hands-on coding, focusing on writing clean code, and is ready to take on the responsibility of shaping a city. You know how to connect the Frontend and Backend, and you have architectural experience with system design, API design, and scaling infrastructure.

You're hungry to deliver, pragmatic in trade-offs, and motivated to build great products.
You are based in Oslo, with a hands-on and empowering leadership style.
You have experience mentoring or leading engineers.
You are a collaborative person who can bring out the best in others.
You take ownership and enjoy solving problems end-to-end.
You are pragmatic and solution-oriented, balancing short-term and long-term needs.

We know great candidates don’t all follow the same path. If you believe you can create impact in this role, we’d love to hear from you, even if your profile doesn’t match every single point.

🧰 Your toolkit for building the city

We build modern solutions with technology that allows us to move quickly and securely. We don't expect you to know our entire stack beforehand. The most important thing is that you have a good technical foundation, are familiar with common frameworks and languages, and, of course, are eager to learn new and modern technology.

Frontend: Typescript with Next.js
Backend: Typescript with Node.js, GraphQL
Databases: PostgreSQL
Infrastructure: AWS
Bonus Tools: Python, GCP, BigQuery

We are in the process of modernizing our tech stack to ensure a more scalable, robust, and efficient platform. We are now laying the foundation to deliver better and faster solutions, and you can help shape it.

🚀 What we offer you:

A central role in a growing, VC-backed startup.
The opportunity to shape the technical direction and culture of our engineering team.
A friendly, ambitious, and collaborative team with high motivation and good code quality.
The chance to see your work have a direct, real-world impact on urban development.
