Key Responsibilities

  • Own and drive the technical architecture for complex, cross-team full-stack initiatives spanning front-end, backend, and data layers.

  • Design, build, and maintain scalable, high-performance web applications and distributed services in a cloud-native environment.

  • Architect and integrate agentic AI workflows (autonomous agents, LLM-driven automation, AI copilots) into engineering and product systems to drive efficiency and new capabilities.

  • Set engineering standards and best practices for code quality, system design, testing, and deployment across the organization, including responsible use of AI-assisted development tools.

  • Lead technical design reviews and provide architectural guidance to multiple engineering teams.

  • Partner with product, design, and engineering leadership to translate business strategy into scalable technical roadmaps, including AI-driven product capabilities.

  • Identify and resolve systemic performance, reliability, and scalability issues across the stack.

  • Mentor and coach senior and mid-level engineers, raising the technical bar across the organization on both full-stack and AI engineering practices.

  • Drive adoption of modern frameworks, tools, and engineering practices, including agentic AI and LLM tooling, to improve developer velocity and system resilience.

  • Maintain awareness of emerging technologies and industry trends, particularly in agentic AI and automation, and assess their applicability to the business.
