About Bitcoin.com

Bitcoin.com is a leading platform in the cryptocurrency space, providing news, educational resources, wallet services, and affiliate partnerships in gaming and beyond. We empower millions of users worldwide with accessible tools and information to navigate the world of Bitcoin and digital assets.

Role Overview

We are seeking an experienced Technical Lead, Web Engineering to own and drive the entire web technology stack at Bitcoin.com—one of the most valuable pieces of internet real estate in the cryptocurrency industry. You will report directly to the Senior Director of Engineering (solid line) with a dotted-line reporting relationship to the Web Product Manager. In this capacity, you will lead engineering efforts across our flagship website and related properties while managing, building, and maintaining a high-traffic platform that supports explosive growth in products, services, affiliates, and wallet adoption.

This is a high-impact, hands-on leadership role requiring exceptional technical depth, proven AI-native expertise, and the ability to deliver complex, cross-functional initiatives at high volume and high velocity in a demanding, always-on environment. You will oversee distributed engineering teams across multiple time zones, with mandatory online availability and overlap during European and Asia time zones to ensure tight collaboration.

This is a very demanding role—not suited for someone seeking a standard 9-5. Website uptime, rapid feature velocity, and cross-team momentum are mission-critical, and the role involves overseeing team members in various global time zones. You will thrive here if you are energized by high-stakes execution and driving outsized impact.

Work Arrangement

• Fully remote-friendly, with mandatory overlap with European and Asia time zones, as our engineering team is primarily located in these regions.


• We maintain physical hubs in Dubai, Singapore, and Tokyo—you are welcome (and encouraged) to work from any of these offices.


• For this role we ask for a minimum of three months per year spent in one of our hubs to foster in-person collaboration and team alignment.


• Close, real-time coordination with your team via Slack and other tools is non-negotiable. 

Key Responsibilities

• Full Stack Ownership: Lead architecture, development, and maintenance of the entire web stack, ensuring scalability, security, performance, and seamless integration across all Bitcoin.com properties.


• MPC Wallet Integration: Drive end-to-end integration of our multi-party computation (MPC) wallet account system across all platforms, enabling secure, unified user experiences.


• Affiliate Business Enhancement: Oversee major upgrades to our igaming affiliate program, including seamless account linkage, frictionless onboarding from affiliate referrals, and incentives (better deals, cashback tied to external activity).


• Personalization & User Behavior Tracking: Implement robust, data-driven user analytics to power personalized experiences across site content, promotions, email campaigns, and news feeds.


• AI-Enabled Development Pipeline: Embed specialized AI agents throughout the engineering and content workflow, including:


• Dedicated SEO agent for ongoing optimization


• Dedicated compliance agent to enforce regional rules and regulations (e.g., content restrictions, data privacy).


• Agents for site performance monitoring, UI/brand consistency reviews, and automated code/build assistance.


• New Product & Feature Expansion: Lead delivery of new web capabilities, including CMS platforms, payment rails, localization infrastructure, and emerging AI-driven features.


• Team Leadership & Velocity: Manage and mentor distributed engineering teams across news, education, marketing, affiliates, and product promotion areas. Set and maintain a culture of high-volume, high-velocity delivery while remaining a hands-on contributor who leads by example.


• Data-Driven Scaling: Use metrics and analytics to guide decisions, rapidly scale the team through strong hiring, and aggressively incorporate AI tools into workflows to sustain velocity as the platform grows.


• Project Lifecycle Management: Initiate projects from scratch, define roadmaps, coordinate cross-functionally, and drive completion amid competing priorities. 

Required Qualifications

• 8+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 3+ years in technical leadership roles overseeing full web stacks (frontend, backend, DevOps, databases).


• Proven track record of building with AI—deeply AI-native with extensive daily use of tools such as Claude, Cursor, Gemini, and other leading AI coding/assistant platforms integrated into your personal and team workflow.


• Hands-on engineer who actively codes, reviews, and contributes while leading teams.


• Demonstrated ability to operate at high volume and high velocity, setting those standards across teams.


• Strong expertise in modern web technologies (e.g., React/Next.js, Node.js, TypeScript, cloud infrastructure).


• Highly data-driven mindset with experience using analytics to inform architecture, prioritization, and personalization.


• Experience integrating secure wallet/authentication systems (crypto/fintech a plus; MPC knowledge a plus).


• Expertise in personalization engines, user behavior tracking, and recommendation systems.


• Proven success embedding AI agents into CI/CD, review, and compliance processes.


• Strong background in SEO, performance optimization, accessibility, and regional compliance.


• Experience building/scaling CMS, payment integrations, and internationalization.


• Comfortable scaling teams through hiring and AI augmentation while maintaining velocity.


• Mandatory significant overlap with European and Asia time zones; proven experience managing globally distributed teams.


• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Prior experience in any: cryptocurrency, ecommerce, fintech, affiliates, or high-traffic media/news platforms.


• Familiarity with affiliate tracking, cashback mechanics, and referral systems.


• Contributions to open-source projects or active presence in the crypto/AI community a plus.
