As our business continues to grow, we are looking for an experienced software development professional who can represent our agency in client-facing meetings.
Our development teams typically manage multiple projects simultaneously, and some team members face communication challenges when interacting with native English-speaking clients. Therefore, we are seeking a highly experienced professional with excellent English communication skills and a strong technical background.
This is a client-facing, non-development role that requires the ability to communicate technical concepts, participate in technical discussions, and demonstrate practical software development knowledge when necessary.
Goals and Responsibilities
Attend Initial Client Meetings: Represent our agency during introductory calls, technical discovery meetings, culture-fit discussions, and project requirement meetings to help secure new projects.
Agency Representation: Attend client meetings as an authorized representative of our assigned team member, following the agreed client-facing identity and representation arrangements.
Technical Discussions: Confidently answer technical questions, explain software architecture, discuss development methodologies, and address technical challenges raised by clients.
Live Coding and Technical Assessments: Participate in live coding sessions, technical interviews, coding challenges, and screen-sharing exercises. Demonstrate practical programming skills and solve technical problems in real time.
Ongoing Project Meetings: Attend regular client meetings, provide project updates, discuss milestones, clarify requirements, and maintain strong client relationships.
Project Communication: Coordinate with our internal development teams to communicate client expectations, technical requirements, feedback, and project progress.
Candidate Requirements
English Proficiency: Advanced (C1/C2) or Native-level English proficiency, with excellent spoken communication, pronunciation, and listening comprehension.
Professional Experience: 7+ years of professional software development experience.
Technical Expertise: Strong knowledge of software engineering principles, system architecture, databases, APIs, and modern development technologies.
Live Coding Skills: Ability to solve coding challenges, explain technical decisions, and demonstrate programming skills through screen sharing.
Client Communication: Excellent presentation, negotiation, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills.
Cultural Awareness: Familiarity with US business communication styles and professional client interactions.
Professionalism: Ability to confidently lead meetings, manage technical discussions, and build trust with clients.
Ideal Candidate
We are particularly interested in experienced software engineers who enjoy client interaction, technical discussions, and business development but prefer a position that does not involve day-to-day coding or development responsibilities.
This is an excellent opportunity for senior developers who want to leverage their technical expertise and communication skills in a flexible, client-facing business role.
The ideal candidate combines strong software engineering experience, advanced or native-level English proficiency, and the confidence to represent a software development agency in front of US clients.
