Technical Project & Team Lead
Role Overview
Xponent, established in 2003 and operating from Chattogram, Bangladesh, builds custom software, AI-powered products, and SaaS platforms — including our own products in the digital marketing space. We are a growing technology company with a strong focus on product quality, engineering excellence, and long-term client success.
As we grow, we need someone to own the space between the founder and the development team. This is not a coding role. This is a leadership and delivery role. You will manage projects, lead developers, and ensure that what gets built is the right thing — delivered on time, with quality, and with clear communication throughout.
This role is not for someone looking for a short-term contract or a stepping stone. We are building a team for the long term. We are looking for someone who wants to grow here — into senior leadership — and build a career, not just fill a seat. If you are serious about that kind of trajectory, we want to hear from you.
