About the Role
Real Chemistry is looking for a Senior Technology Lead to join our growing team! 21GRAMS, Real Chemistry’s advertising agency, has done a lot in its first 5+ years. Known for our creativity, we've just been ranked as the #2 creative health agency in the world by Cannes Lions. It takes a team to do ambitious things, and our ambition is to help people connect with healthcare – by making advertising less of an interruption and more worth people’s time because it gets them.
At ROOM42 — 21GRAMS' in-house production company, content studio, and Digital & Technology services arm — we are seeking an AI-Forward Technical Lead who is simultaneously a craftsperson, a creative partner, and an accelerator. This person moves fluidly between writing production-quality code, protecting design intent through every build decision, and orchestrating AI tooling to compress the distance from concept to shipped experience. Whether the starting point is a client brief, a Figma file, or a napkin sketch, this Technical Lead is the person who figures out the fastest, most technically sound path to a working, beautiful, compliant deliverable — and builds it.
This role spans the full ROOM42 output spectrum: marketing websites, microsites, conference kiosks and panel experiences, interactive apps, and data-driven digital tools for healthcare and pharma clients. The ideal candidate has mastered the traditional web development lifecycle and is actively transforming it — using AI at every meaningful stage.
What You'll Do
Build and Architect
- Own end-to-end technical execution for ROOM42 deliverables — websites, microsites, interactive apps, conference kiosk and panel experiences, and real-world evidence platforms
- Write and review production-quality code across the full stack; maintain a target of 50% direct hands-on contribution alongside leadership responsibilities
- Architect solutions that balance speed-to-market with long-term maintainability, security, and accessibility compliance
- Lead technical solutioning on new engagements — translating UX wireframes and creative briefs into clearly scoped, achievable builds
DevOps and Delivery Infrastructure
- Own Git-based version control strategy, CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and deployment workflows to ensure reliable, repeatable releases
