Fullstack Lead Engineer

Role Description

GlobalLogic is seeking a Fullstack Lead Engineer to step into a Tech Lead role for our engineering bench, supporting a sophisticated, regulated medical technology platform. This position is ideal for a seasoned backend-heavy leader with deep expertise in Python and Django, a solid understanding of AWS, and the ability to oversee a cross-functional engineering team.

• Set the quality bar for the team, drive code reviews, and ensure the operational excellence of the platform.
• Focus on scaling and maintaining Python/Django services and AWS infrastructure.
• Oversee the frontend scope without needing to be a Vue.js expert.
• Support strategic platform evolutions, including an upcoming Kubernetes migration.

Qualifications

• End-to-End Project Ownership: 2+ years of continuous experience on a single relevant project, guiding it through the entire lifecycle - from initial concept and deployment to production support and maintenance.
• Tech Lead Experience: Proven track record in a Tech Lead or Team Lead role, with experience mentoring developers and establishing engineering best practices.
• Python & Django Expertise: Extensive professional software development experience with deep, hands-on mastery of Python and the Django framework.
• AWS Competency: Practical familiarity with AWS infrastructure and core services, particularly serverless and messaging components (Lambda, SNS, SQS).
• Frontend Oversight Capability: A solid conceptual understanding of any modern JavaScript framework (such as Vue, React, or Angular) - enough to assess tasks, manage delivery, and unblock engineers. Deep frontend development expertise is not required.
• Infrastructure Basics: Practical familiarity with Docker and CI/CD pipelines to support platform migration initiatives.

Requirements

• Technical Leadership: Act as the Tech Lead for the engineering bench, driving code reviews and setting a high quality bar for overall team delivery.
• Backend Development: Take ownership of core backend services using Python and Django within a multi-region SaaS architecture.
• Infrastructure & Cloud: Work with AWS services (Lambda, SNS, SQS) to support application workflows and assist with the ongoing Kubernetes (K8s) migration.
• Frontend Oversight: Effectively manage and distribute tasks across the frontend scope (built on Vue.js), focusing on high-level architecture and task delivery rather than hands-on frontend development.

Benefits

• Empowering Projects: With 500+ clients spanning diverse industries and domains, we provide an exciting opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking projects that leverage cutting-edge technologies.
• Empowering Growth: We foster a culture of continuous learning and professional development, providing timely and comprehensive assistance for every consultant through our dedicated Learning & Development team.
• DE&I Matters: We deeply value and embrace diversity, providing equal opportunities for all individuals and fostering an inclusive work environment.
• Career Development: Our corporate culture emphasizes career development, offering abundant opportunities for growth and regular interactions with our teams.
• Comprehensive Benefits: We provide a comprehensive benefits package that prioritizes the overall well-being of our consultants.
• Flexible Opportunities: We prioritize work-life balance by offering flexible opportunities tailored to your lifestyle, including relocation and rotation options.
