  • Optimize development workflows by identifying bottlenecks and streamlining delivery processes
  • Provide high-level mentorship to senior and mid-level engineers to elevate the organization's technical bar
  • Maintain the long-term health and scalability of the platform while ensuring alignment with broader infrastructure goals
  • Degree in CS or Engineering, or significant equivalent industry experience
  • At least 8 years of professional experience developing large-scale, enterprise-ready software
  • Deep expertise in managing the delivery of multi-faceted, high-availability systems
  • Exceptional architectural judgment paired with a disciplined approach to project execution
  • Demonstrated ability to provide technical direction and maintain momentum in fast-paced settings
  • A history of successfully mentoring technical staff and influencing cross-team engineering standards
  • A strong commitment to operational excellence and long-term system stability
Primary Technology Stack:
  • Cloud Infrastructure: AWS ecosystem (including container orchestration and managed databases)
  • Backend & Data: Python-based microservices, relational databases, and in-memory data stores
  • Frontend: Modern JavaScript frameworks
  • Data Engineering: Large-scale data processing (Spark/ETL) and Medallion architecture patterns
  • Tooling: Modern workflow automation, orchestration engines, and AI-enhanced development cycles
