Technical Lead
Pubblicato il 11-09-2026 - REBELL in Milano
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? Rebell is building something Europe has never had before: a Super App.
A single gateway where people can shop, pay, book, connect, and manage their daily lives across multiple countries, without switching between dozens of apps . In Asia, super apps like Alipay and WeChat have transformed the way hundreds of millions of people live and interact.
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.
This is not a coordination role. You will own technical delivery end-to-end, from specification to production,
leading a distributed engineering team based in China.
The role
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.
What you'll do
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 platform s: master how both work, payment
