## Description

Reset Health are looking for a Development Team Lead to guide our new Live Platforms development team, balancing hands-on technical delivery with day-to-day scrum master duties.

You'll split your time between writing code alongside the team and running the agile ceremonies that keep the team delivering predictably — planning, refinement, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives — while acting as a first point of contact for technical guidance and mentorship.

-   Close collaboration with our Product team and Client Programme Lead to groom the backlog and plan each production update.
-   Report on sprint progress, velocity, and delivery risk to engineering leadership and other stakeholders.
-   Assist in designing and personally develop new platform capabilities requested by current customers. This will involve hands-on development in our React Native front end, Kotlin backend or both.
-   Apply AI tools responsibly to deliver productivity benefits while maintaining full oversight.
-   Champion strong technical standards and best-practise software engineering: code reviews, unit testing, CI/CD, secure software development.
-   Take ownership of the Live Platform which comes with the right to challenge any code/change contributed by other teams that does not meet a Quality Standard you will be pivotal in agreeing.
-   Support the recruitment and training of engineers as we grow the team.
-   Manage 2nd line support for technical issues as per the Global support Standard Operating Procedure.
-   As we grow, help plan out how we’ll evolve the Live Platforms to support our deployments in other timezones.

The successful candidate will demonstrate

-   Strong problem-solving techniques and sound technical judgement.
-   Excellent interpersonal, coaching, and facilitation skills.
