Software Automation Team Lead

Job Title: Software Engineer Lead Location: MARS Cosmetics
MARS Cosmetics is hiring a Software Engineer Lead to build and lead internal software, automation, and AI systems across the organisation. This role is for someone who can combine strong engineering judgment with speed, product sense, and practical business understanding.

You will work closely with leadership and cross-functional teams to turn operational complexity into simple, scalable software.

Lead development of internal tools, workflow systems, dashboards, and automation layers across functions.

• Drive AI adoption in practical business use cases such as knowledge search, reporting, decision support, content workflows, and process automation.
• Establish engineering standards across code quality, system design, reliability, documentation, and security.
• Integrate internal systems across business tools, databases, APIs, and external platforms.

• Experience building real products, internal platforms, or workflow software from scratch.
• Strong understanding of APIs, databases, integrations, and modern software architecture.
• Practical experience with AI-enabled applications, LLM workflows, automations, or internal copilots.
• Someone who builds, simplifies, and ships — not just manages.

• Familiarity with React, Node.js, Next.js, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, cloud deployment, and workflow automation.
• Experience working across ops, sales, supply chain, finance, or marketing systems is a plus.
• Prior experience leading engineers or owning technical direction is preferred.

This role will help build the internal software and AI backbone of MARS Cosmetics — reducing manual work, improving decision-making, and making execution faster and less people-dependent.
