Key Problem Areas
- Modernizing Foundational Systems: You’ll get to shape and evolve the core services that power every part of Mindtickle’s platform—from Notifications and User Management to Rule Automation and beyond. Many of these systems have been around for years, offering both the challenge and opportunity to streamline, consolidate, and upgrade.
- Creating Focus from Breadth: The CoCo team owns a wide range of services. You’ll help bring clarity and structure by introducing ownership models, SME (Subject matter expert) roles, and documentation practices, ensuring depth in expertise while maintaining agility.
- Driving Stability and Scalability: These services need to work with high uptime. You’ll lead initiatives that improve reliability, reduce alert fatigue, and harden operational processes so that our platform remains trusted and responsive at scale.
- Bringing Clarity to Cross-Team Interfaces: The team often acts as a glue layer across Mindtickle. You’ll help define clear ownership boundaries, smoothen collaboration with other teams, and ensure there’s no ambiguity about who owns what.
- Enabling Scalable Growth: As the company scales, so does the complexity of our systems. You’ll play a key role in helping the team move from reactive firefighting to proactive planning, creating systems and rituals that support long-term velocity and team health.
What’s in it for you?
- Drive sprint planning, backlog grooming, and delivery tracking with technical leads and PMs.
- Shape and enforce clear ownership boundaries for CoCo systems; lead service consolidation and scope redefinition.
- Champion creation of runbooks, escalation paths, system dependency maps, and KT sessions to raise team baseline.
- Manage stakeholder expectations and actively resolve blockers across product, infra, and adjacent platform teams.
- Lead the team through incidents, root cause analysis, and preventive action to ensure high system availability.
- Foster a psychologically safe, feedback-driven team culture that values learning, visibility, and impact.
- Provide strong technical judgment during prioritization discussions, planning trade-offs, and roadmap alignment.
What we are looking for
- 8+ years of total experience, with at least 2–3 years leading or owning backend/platform teams or core services.
- Strong technical fundamentals in building and maintaining high-scale distributed systems (notifications, auth, infra integrations, etc.).
- Proven experience driving clarity in ambiguous problem spaces and upholding system boundaries across teams.
- Strong project management and execution discipline—can set up and run sprints, manage dependencies, and measure delivery health.
- Excellent collaboration and stakeholder management skills—comfortable driving cross-functional discussions and tradeoffs.
- Hands-on experience or working knowledge of technologies like Postgres, Kafka, Redis, Python/Node.js microservices, or similar.
- Bonus: Familiarity with event-driven systems, on-call rotations, and developer experience in platform teams.
