• Solid understanding of SQL Server internals (transactions, isolation levels, indexing, query plans, replication, Always On for HA) and experience with Cosmos DB (partitioning strategies, consistency levels, throughput tuning).


• Experience designing and running event-driven architectures using messaging platforms (Azure Service Bus, Event Grid, or similar).


• Familiarity with modern frontend stacks (React, state management, TypeScript) and mobile (React Native) sufficient to review designs and unblock full-stack teams.


• Experience with observability: structured logging, distributed tracing, metrics, and APM tools (Application Insights, Prometheus, Grafana, or similar).

• 7–14 years in software engineering with at least 3+ years in a tech lead or engineering management role.


• Proven experience leading full-stack, product-focused teams in fintech, high- throughput, or mission-critical environments.
