At our company, we translate strategy into running software. In this role, you will rapidly build functional prototypes (thin slices), validate them with users, and strengthen successful ones into scalable, stable services.
Key Responsibilities
1. Product Development
- Scope proof of concepts (PoC) from business intent with clear acceptance criteria.
- Deliver vertical thin slices across UI, API, data, and deployment layers.
- Instrument usage, latency, and error tracking to validate ideas or terminate them quickly.
- Evolve PoC into pilot and production stages through iterative hardening.
- Align models with the business domain using Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and bounded contexts.
- Operate and maintain the services you build using CI, observability tools, and repeatable templates.
2. Ways of Working
- Apply Agile principles with weekly demos and concise decision logs.
- Use Systems Thinking to map workflows, identify constraints, and establish feedback loops.
- Implement DDD to define clear domains and anti-corruption layers.
- Focus on pragmatic 80/20 solutions that deliver measurable impact.
- Document effectively with concise Architectural Decision Records (ADRs) and runnable readme-first repositories.
- Design solutions with security, cost-efficiency, and least privilege in mind.
- Communicate with structured, pyramid-style logic and clear so-what summaries for stakeholders.
3. Technology Consulting
- Lead discovery sessions to define value hypotheses and leading metrics.
- Translate business goals into architectural choices, highlighting trade-offs and total cost of ownership (TCO).
- Develop a roadmap that balances quick wins with long-term technical foundations.
- Define service level objectives (SLOs), runbooks, and governance basics.
- Advise on build-versus-buy decisions and support vendor evaluations with objective criteria.
- Prepare client teams for success through comprehensive handover plans and checklists.
- Facilitate decision-making forums that surface risks, outline options, and determine next actions.
Preferred Technical Stack
- Languages: Python, JavaScript
- Backend: FastAPI (Python), Node.js (as needed)
- Frontend: React with utility-first CSS
- Data: PostgreSQL, Redis, object storage, lightweight analytics tools
- Cloud: Azure, GCP, AWS, or Alicloud (managed PaaS preferred)
- DevOps: Docker, GitHub Actions, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), OpenTelemetry or equivalent observability tools
Qualifications
- Proven experience delivering full-stack solutions from PoC to production.
- Skilled at breaking down work into incremental deliverables and shipping weekly.
- Strong understanding of Agile methodologies, Systems Thinking, and DDD.
- Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure, or Alicloud).
- Excellent communication skills, especially when collaborating with product and domain stakeholders.
- Bachelors degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.
- Experience working with AI or machine learning models is a strong plus.
