Lead Software Engineer

Crenno Studio is a startup studio established in 2009 to be a pioneer and leader in technology.

At Crenno, we’re building innovative products across diverse domains — from hybrid mobile apps to AI-driven platforms and immersive gaming experiences. We're a dynamic, fast-scaling team where engineers don't just write code — they shape the foundation of everything we do.

We are a company young enough to be agile, dynamic, innovative; and experienced. We believe that making software is not only great, but also unforgettable, inspiring, eye-catching and fun.

Let's Create the Innovation together!

About the Role

We’re looking for a Lead Software Engineer who will anchor the engineering organization, drive technical excellence across projects, and define a future-proof development culture. You'll lead mobile (Flutter, native iOS/Android), frontend (React and beyond), and backend (Node.js/NestJS, Java Spring, etc.) development teams — working closely with AI/ML engineers and Unity game developers.

This is not just another lead role. You’ll become the technical heartbeat of Crenno — the person who brings vision, structure, and velocity to our software development life cycle (SDLC). You’ll help us modernize our stack, introduce emerging technologies (e.g., AI Agents, LLMs, Agent Frameworks), and ensure we scale with quality, speed, and accountability.

Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and evolve robust SDLC processes and quality standards

• Evaluate, integrate, and champion new technologies (AI agents, LLMs, DevOps, etc.)

• Track, monitor, and report engineering efforts with clarity and precision

• Collaborate with product, design, and executive leadership to align on strategy

• Ensure seamless cross-team coordination, documentation, and delivery

• Build the culture, tools, and architecture needed for scale

What We’re Looking For

• Proven technical leadership in fast-moving environments

• Deep expertise in at least two of the following areas:

  • Mobile development: Flutter, Swift, Kotlin

  • Frontend: React, Next.js, or similar frameworks

  • Backend: NestJS, Java Spring, REST/gRPC APIs, Microservices

• Solid understanding of software engineering best practices and scalable architecture

• Exposure to or strong interest in AI/ML, MLOps, LLMs, and agent frameworks

• Track record of building processes for visibility, accountability, and quality

• Excellent communication, mentoring, and collaboration skills

• Startup or product-focused mindset with hands-on execution ability

Why Join Crenno Studio?

• Be the core technical leader shaping the future of our company

• Work with cutting-edge technologies across software and AI

• Dynamic and collaborative work environment with opportunities for growth and advancement

• Own your work with stock options, autonomy, and impact

• Join a team that values clarity, creativity, and momentum
