This role offers significant impact and growth opportunities while staying hands-on. We focus on lean teams without traditional management layers, working in small, collaborative teams (2-5 people) where a well-founded argument holds more weight than the years of experience. You’ll develop tailored software solutions to meet clients’ unique needs across multiple domains.

• Lead architecture and design decisions, ensuring adherence to best practices in technology choices and system design.
• Utilize DevOps tools and practices to automate and streamline the build and deployment processes.
• Work closely with Data Scientists and Engineers to deliver robust, production-level AI and Machine Learning systems.
• Develop frameworks and tools for efficient data ingestion from diverse and complex sources.
• Operate in short, iterative sprints, delivering working software aligned with clear deliverables and client-defined deadlines.
• Demonstrate flexibility by learning and working across multiple programming languages and technologies as required.

Additional Responsibilities

• Actively contribute to a high-performing engineering culture by collaborating closely with fellow senior techies, fostering strong technical discussions and decision-making.
• Provide hands-on mentorship and technical guidance that encourages knowledge sharing, continuous improvement, and innovation within your team.

Skills you’ll need

• 8+ years relevant experience.
• Deep understanding of programming fundamentals and expertise with at least one programming language (functional or object-oriented).
• A nuanced and rich understanding of code quality, maintainability and practices like Test Driven Development.
• Experience with one or more source control and build toolchains.
• Working knowledge of CI/CD will be an added advantage.
• Understanding of web APIs, contracts and communication protocols.
• Understanding of Cloud platforms, infra-automation/DevOps, IaC/GitOps/Containers, design and development of large data platforms.
• A maker’s mindset – to be resourceful and have the ability to do things that have no instructions.
