  • Collaborate closely with Product, SRE, DevOps, Data, Operations, and other R& D teams to achieve business goals.
  • Design robust technical solutions, evaluate architectural options, and define technical direction and quality standards.
  • Promote a culture of innovation and personal development within the organization.
  • Take ownership of team growth, recruitment, and development processes.

Requirements:

  • A collaborative team player with strong leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills.

  • Technical Expertise: Proficiency with REST APIs, Queues, and Microservices architecture.
  • Architectural Knowledge: Strong understanding of OOP, design patterns, and system development (not just services).
