- Define and enforce engineering best practices in code quality, testing, CI/CD, observability, and secure development.
- Drive modernization initiatives such as microservices, cloud adoption, event-driven patterns, and reusable component libraries.
- Full Stack Development
- Architect and build scalable, maintainable systems across the stack using:
- Frontend: React, Angular, or similar frameworks
- Backend: Python, Java, or Node.js services
- APIs: REST, GraphQL
- Databases: relational and NoSQL

- Manage a team of full-stack engineers, fostering a culture of ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement.
- Provide coaching, technical mentorship, and career development for team members.
- Conduct performance reviews, define role expectations, and support talent acquisition.
- Allocate resources, plan sprints, and ensure smooth execution across multiple projects.
- Create strong engineering processes around estimation, planning, code review, testing, and deployments
- Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Partner with product managers, business stakeholders, operations, and security teams to translate requirements into technical solutions.
- Ensure delivery of high‑impact features with predictable timelines and measurable business value.
- Communicate technical tradeoffs and architectural decisions to both technical and non‑technical audiences.
Knowledge And Experience
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
- 8+ years of full-stack engineering experience, including significant hands‑on coding.
- 2–4 years of engineering management or technical leadership experience.
- Strong expertise in building production‑grade front-end and back-end applications.
- Proficiency with cloud technologies (AWS preferred).
- Solid understanding of DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, Git workflows, automation, and infrastructure basics.
- Excellent communication, team-building, and stakeholder management skills.
Preferred Knowledge And Experience
- Experience with microservices, distributed systems, and high-performance architectures.
- Familiarity with Airflow, container orchestration (ECS/EKS), or serverless frameworks.
- Experience working in regulated or mission‑critical environments.
- Background leading globally distributed engineering teams.
