- Mentor and guide senior engineers in backend services, APIs, infrastructure, and frontend architecture best practices.
- Drive scalability strategy through multi-region deployments, zero-downtime releases, resilience engineering, and disaster recovery.
- Shape data strategy by making decisions on database selection, schema design, caching strategies (Redis, CDN, edge compute), and event-driven architectures.
- Ensure frontend excellence by implementing scalable React/Next.js architecture and modern state management patterns.
- Advance DevOps maturity by automating AWS processes, setting up CI/CD pipelines, and focusing on observability and reliability engineering.
- Establish engineering standards that prioritize performance, security, and resilience.
- Build and scale distributed engineering teams, define processes, and cultivate a culture of technical excellence and ownership.
**Qualifications Required:**
- 9-15 years of experience in software engineering with strong leadership exposure.
- Proven track record in architecting and scaling cloud-native, event-driven SaaS applications.
- Hands-on expertise with Kubernetes, containers, serverless architectures, and microservices.
- Experience in building and scaling distributed engineering teams.
- Strong product mindset with the ability to lead technical discovery, manage tech debt, and deliver impactful products.
- Active hands-on contributor in backend (Node.js/TypeScript, Rails) and frontend (React/Next.js/React Native) technologies.
- Strong DevOps and analytics understanding including infrastructure scaling, CDP, and data-driven product optimization.
- Expertise in performance optimization such as query tuning, caching strategies, and latency reduction.
- Experience in integrating AI into developer workflows and customer-facing products.
In this role, you will have the opportunity to evaluate and evolve the technology stack, introduce modern frameworks and patterns, and establish architectural standards that align with business growth.
