Technical Lead
Pubblicato il 07-09-2026 - REBELL in Italia
If you enjoy turning complexity into clarity, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks between business and engineering, this role is for you. What if you could help build Europe's first Super App from the inside? A single gateway where people can shop, pay, book, connect, and manage their daily lives across multiple countries, without switching between dozens of apps. Rebell is already funded (+35M EUR) and staffed with senior leaders from Alipay, Twint, Scalapay, Qonto, and Glovo. The launch is planned for late 2026, and the project is fully financed, thus no dependency on short-term fundraising.
We are now hiring a Tech Lead to lead the definition and evolution of our merchant-side platform, dedicated to in-store and online digital payments.
You will own technical delivery end-to-end, from specification to production, leading a distributed engineering team based in China.
Rebell's merchant platform runs across two engineering hubs, one of them a 15-person team based in Chengdu.
We're hiring a Tech Lead to take full ownership of the China-based engineering team, planning,
execution, release quality, and become the person who actually understands how both platforms talk to each other: payment lifecycle, merchant integration, bank gateway. You'll turn a distributed, multi-vendor setup into one that ships fast and doesn't surprise anyone.
If you like walking into a team that's technically solid but can be improved structurally, and leaving it running like clockwork, this is the job.
Own end-to-end delivery of the Chengdu-based platform team: planning, execution and release quality, reporting to the IT & Integration Director.
Be the technical bridge between the two platforms: master how both work, payment lifecycle, merchant integration, bank gateway, and make cross-platform dependencies visible and managed, not discovered.
Raise specification quality at the source: write PRDs, ISAs, API contracts and acceptance criteria to Rebell standards, cutting review ite
