Team Lead - Staff Software Engineer

Team Lead - Staff Software Engineer OUR MISSION At Omnea, we’re reinventing how enterprise businesses operate, starting with the most painful parts: procurement – where a single purchase can drag on for months, trigger 50+ emails, and pull in Finance, Legal, Security, and IT just to get something approved. We’ve raised $75M from Khosla Ventures, Insight Partners, and Accel to change that. Our AI-native platform connects every person, step, and system so buying is fast, safe, and efficient – one place to request, automated approvals and renewals, real-time supplier risk, and complete spend visibility. It's a $7B+ untapped market, and our traction reflects the scale of the opportunity: we’ve 10x’d ARR to double-digit millions in 18 months and are trusted by global enterprises like Spotify, MongoDB, Monzo, and Albertsons. We’re now the 4th fastest growing startup https://sifted.eu/leaderboards/sifted-future-50-2025 in Europe. Our team previously scaled Tessian (cybersecurity tech, backed by Sequoia, Balderton, Accel, acquired post-Series C), and our team includes ex-founders operators who’ve grown unicorns, shipped world-class products, and executed at the highest levels. You’ll work alongside leaders like Ben https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-freeman-a8542166/, Abs https://www.linkedin.com/in/abhirukt/, Sabrina https://www.linkedin.com/in/scastiglione/, and Rebe https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebecatristan/.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR We’re seeking an exceptional, product-focused Team Lead (Staff Software Engineer, L4) to join our engineering team and help guide Omnea through its next phase of rapid growth. Over the coming year, our team will double in size, our enterprise customer base will expand from around 100 to over 200, and our revenue will triple. This Staff-level role offers domain-level impact, blending senior technical leadership with people management responsibilities. You’ll lead a team, mentor and develop engineers, and influence architecture and product outcomes across a wider domain, while staying hands-on where it matters most. You’ll be joining us at a pivotal moment. We’ve just closed a $50M Series B round led by Khosla Ventures https://www.khoslaventures.com/, Insight Partners https://www.insightpartners.com/, Accel https://www.accel.com/, Point Nine https://www.pointnine.com/, and First Round Capital https://www.firstround.com/. In the past year, we’ve grown revenue 5x, tripled our customer base, and maintained enterprise retention above 99% with clients like Spotify, Wise, Albertsons, Adecco, and McAfee. Our small, high-calibre team was built by interviewing over 10,000 candidates to hire our first 50 Omneans. Now, we’re scaling rapidly, building the category of AI Supplier Relationship Management. We’re seeking Staff-level engineers who can lead teams or initiatives, influence technical direction across domains, and help make procurement a strategic advantage. You should be prepared for a pair-programming interview stage in JavaScript or TypeScript, as if it were your primary language. This is a hands-on leadership role—we expect Team Leader – Staff Engineers to lead by example through code, technical decisions, and delivery ownership. We’re hiring full-stack engineers, so if your experience is mainly in frontend, backend, devops/platform, or in a substantially different language (like Java), this role may not be the right fit. We value skills over years of experience, but as guidance, candidates for this role typically have 8–10+ years of software engineering experience, including meaningful team or complex initiative leadership. As a Staff Engineer at Omnea, you’ll stay hands-on, writing code, and leading through technical execution and ownership—rather than through meetings or high-level architectural discussions.
