Lead Software Engineer

Building a team starts with valuing the team. We hire the best of the best to ensure you’re working with people you can constantly learn from. You’re trusted to get your work done your way while testing the limits of what’s possible and what’s next. We work hard to provide a culture where everyone feels supported, and our employees feel it—their votes helped us become one of Newsweek's Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces in 2023.

We also value sports. Not just because of the big wins and highlight-worthy plays, but because of the lasting impact sports can have: the lifelong lessons in teamwork and dedication; the influence of inspiring mentors; the priceless opportunities to play at the next level. Sports can change lives—that’s what we value.

Our team helps the world see sports differently through products that make it easier to capture video, analyze data, share highlights and do a lot more. Ready to join us?

Your Role

We’re looking for a Lead Software Engineer to join our first product teams in Mumbai. You’ll be improving the operations of our internal team of sports analysts across Hudl Assist, Wyscout, InStat and Volleymetrics products. These products are used by thousands of teams around the world, from youth clubs to the pros. Example projects might include:

• Improving the tools used to deliver training to sports analysts
• Instrumenting our processes to facilitate continuous improvement for our operations team
• Iterating on manual data collection workflows to improve speed and accuracy

As a Senior Engineer, you’ll:

• Work with a cross-functional team. You’ll collaborate with Engineering, Quality Assurance, Product, Design and Scrum disciplines to deliver full-stack web features. With our global team, these team members and stakeholders are located all over the world—so you may need to work evenings a few days a week.
• Test new ideas. At Hudl, we iterate rapidly, deploying changes to the product hundreds of times a day across our Engineering team. Outside of working on concrete features, you’ll have the opportunity to propose solutions to more ambiguous technical problems and provide guidance to less experienced engineers.
• Help improve analysis. You’ll work to improve training tools, processes and manual data collection workflows used by our sports analysts to improve their speed and accuracy.

This role requires 5 days in the office per week, so we're currently considering candidates who live within a commuting distance of our offices in Mumbai. We're able to offer a salary of between 40 LPA - 55 LPA, dependent on skills and experience, and please note this is an initial 1-year contract.

Must-Haves

• Experience in mature, full-stack web applications. You have several years experience building across all levels of a web application, from the client-side code, all the way down to the database. You have a professional background in technologies such as TypeScript, React, GraphQL, C#, Java, PHP, MongoDB, MySQL and/or AWS.
• Technical leadership experience. You’ve guided other Engineers through substantial product investments. You’re comfortable translating requirements, creating architectural proposals, breaking work into digestible increments, setting milestones, and providing mentorship to other Engineers during implementation.
• English language proficiency. You have strong verbal and written communication skills.
• Flexible schedule. We strive to maintain a healthy work-life balance, but in this role, it will be necessary for your schedule to overlap with stakeholders and collaborators across time zones.

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience working with cross-cultural remote teams. Our product team is currently spread across the U.S. and Europe, and your remote collaboration skills and cross-cultural understanding will be essential to adapt to Hudl’s culture.

Our Role

• Champion work-life harmony. We’ll give you the flexibility you need in your work life (e.g., national and public holidays and timeout (meeting-free) days) so you can enjoy your personal life too.
• Guarantee autonomy. We have an open, honest culture and we trust our people from day one. Your team will support you, but you’ll own your work and have the agency to try new ideas.
• Encourage career growth. We’re lifelong learners who encourage professional development. We’ll give you tons of resources and opportunities to keep growing.
• Provide an environment to help you succeed. We’ve invested in our offices, designing incredible spaces with our employees in mind. We’ll also provide you the tech stack and hardware to do your best work.
• Cover your medical insurance. We’ll provide both medical and accidental coverage for you.
• Retiral benefits. Provident fund and Gratuity.
