What You'll Build

Architecture & Technical Ownership

Define and own end-to-end architecture of cloud-native microservices — service boundaries, API contracts, data flows, and system design
Lead solution design from feasibility assessment through rapid prototyping to production-grade delivery
Evaluate architectural trade-offs and produce well-documented decisions that influence current and future platform direction
Treat non-functional requirements — security, observability, scalability, and maintainability — as first-class design concerns
Write production-quality TypeScript/Node.js code for critical components — this is not a purely advisory role
Conduct thorough code reviews that raise quality standards and build team capability

Stay current with the fast-evolving landscape of cloud, AI, and developer tooling across hyperscaler platforms, SAP BTP, and open-source ecosystem
Proactively explore unfamiliar technologies and bring structured, actionable insights back to the team
Approach ambiguous problem spaces with intellectual curiosity — learn from first principles and treat uncertainty as part of the craft

Mentorship & Team Enablement

Coach and mentor engineers on TypeScript patterns, domain-driven design, cloud-native architecture, and clean code principles
Enable team to make better decisions independently

What You Bring

Technical Skills

Strong learning agility — rapidly acquires new skills, navigates unfamiliar domains confidently, and thrives in ambiguity
Proactively stays current with cloud, AI, and emerging technologies — brings new ideas and practices to the team
