Descripción de la vacante

Gomining is seeking an Engineering Director to own the GoMining Platform's technology strategy, architecture, and roadmap. You will build scalable shared infrastructure used across multiple products and teams, balancing platform investments with product priorities.

You will lead reliability, performance, and incident-management practices, driving post-incident improvements and raising the engineering bar across the organization.

Formación

• Experience as an Engineering Director or senior engineering leader.
• Strong technical background with architecture and engineering decisions.
• Experience building or operating complex platforms or shared infrastructure.
• Proven leadership of engineering teams and cross-functional initiatives.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems, high-load environments, reliability, and security.
• Experience with authentication, authorization, integrations, identity, payments infrastructure, or other shared platform capabilities.
• Strong product and business mindset and data-driven decision making.
• Hands-on experience with modern AI tools and agents.
• Experience in fintech, payments, crypto, marketplaces, gaming, or another high-scale technology environment is a strong advantage.

Responsabilidades

• Own technology strategy, architecture, and roadmap for the GoMining Platform.
• Build scalable shared infrastructure used across products and engineering teams.
• Define which capabilities should be centralized at Platform level and which should remain within individual product teams.
• Drive major architectural and technical decisions.
• Identify scalability and architectural bottlenecks before they become business-critical.
• Balance long-term platform investments with immediate product and commercial priorities.
• Own platform reliability, availability, latency, scalability, and operational performance.
• Define and improve SLAs, DORA metrics, engineering performance, and incident-management practices.
• Improve release stability, engineering velocity, and system resilience.
• Lead post-incident improvements and eliminate systemic reliability issues.
• Maintain a high engineering bar without unnecessary bureaucracy.
• Own shared authentication, authorization, registration, and 2FA infrastructure.
• Develop common account controls, user restrictions, and security mechanisms.
• Own integrations and shared backend capabilities required across GoMining products.
• Develop shared analytics and event infrastructure.
• Support common infrastructure across web and native applications.
• Partner with Product, Design, Security, and engineering teams on cross-company capabilities.
• Platform at GoMining is not an isolated infrastructure function.
• You will work directly with product leaders, General Managers, and C-level stakeholders to understand where technology can unlock growth and where platform limitations are holding the business back.
• Prioritize engineering initiatives based on technical risk and business impact.
• Understand how platform decisions affect revenue, conversion, customer experience, and product velocity.
• Identify technical changes that can unlock meaningful business results.
• Balance competing priorities across multiple product teams.
• Make clear trade-offs between speed, scalability, reliability, security, and business value.
• Measure Platform not only through technical metrics, but through how effectively it accelerates the company.
• Lead and develop the Platform engineering organization.
• Own team structure, hiring, performance, priorities, and execution.
• Build a culture of strong engineering ownership and accountability.
• Stay close enough to architecture and technology to challenge decisions and make informed trade-offs.
• Develop strong technical leaders within the team.
• Raise the technical and execution bar across the organization.
• Actively use AI tools and agents in your own work.
• Introduce AI-assisted workflows across engineering, specifications, QA, analytics, and operations.
• Identify opportunities to automate repetitive engineering work.
• Use AI to increase engineering velocity and quality.
• Build a team where AI becomes part of the engineering operating model.
• Experience as an Engineering Director, Head of Engineering, Head of Platform, VP Engineering, CTO, or in a comparable senior engineering leadership role.
• Strong technical background and the ability to engage deeply in architecture and engineering decisions.
• Experience building or operating complex platforms, shared services, or infrastructure used by multiple products or engineering teams.
• Proven experience leading engineering teams and delivering complex cross-functional initiatives.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems, high-load environments, reliability, scalability, incidents, and security.
• Experience with authentication, authorization, integrations, identity, payments infrastructure, or other shared platform capabilities.
• Strong product and business mindset — you understand not only how something should be built, but why it matters.
• Ability to prioritize based on business impact rather than technical complexity alone.
• Experience working directly with senior product, business, and executive stakeholders.
• Strong data-driven approach to engineering and decision-making.
• Hands-on experience with modern AI tools and agents.
• Experience in fintech, payments, crypto, marketplaces, gaming, or another high-scale technology environment is a strong advantage.
