Lead Java Developer
Location : Cape Town City Centre (onsite with flexibility to miss traffic)
We are searching for a Cape Town-based Senior Java Team Lead for an international startup that builds high-performance, next-gen 5G smart routers and networking hardware to deliver seamless, global connectivity.
About the role
The Senior Java Team Lead will run a small team building high-volume, low-latency systems on a modern Java / Spring Boot stack. This is a hands‑on lead role : you'll write and review code, but your bigger job is organising the team's work, unblocking people, and making sure what we ship is solid.
You’ll own delivery for your team's slice of the platform: planning, work allocation, code quality, technical direction, and stakeholder communication. You'll report into engineering leadership and have a real say in architecture and hiring.
