Job description

About the Role:

At XTS we are redefining how learning content is created and delivered. We’re building an AI-powered SaaS platform using React, Python, OpenAI, and AWS, empowering organizations to streamline knowledge sharing and training at scale. We’re a seasoned team with deep expertise in ed tech, AI, and product development. As we scale, we’re looking for a senior technical leader who can bridge infrastructure and application development—shaping cloud architecture, guiding secure and scalable deployments, and building high-quality features alongside our engineering team.

Why This Role Matters

We’re entering a critical phase:

• We're growing product capabilities like user, license, and storage management.
• Our DevOps maturity needs to level up—from ad hoc pipelines to continuous delivery.
• We're operating in a containerized AWS environment (ECS, Lambda, API Gateway) with hybrid IaC (CloudFormation + Terraform).
• We need detailed architectural documentation and a consistent approach to performance, security, and multi‑environment deployments.

This role brings hands‑on development strength plus the cloud systems thinking needed to guide and mentor others.

What You’ll Do

Cloud Architecture & Security

• Document and evolve our current AWS architecture (ECS, Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, S3).
• Improve isolation and IAM structure as we transition to multi‑account setups.
• Partner with the team to define performance monitoring, resource scaling, and vulnerability detection using tools like AWS Inspector, GuardDuty, and CloudWatch.

DevOps Mentorship & CI/CD Maturity

• Collaborate with our DevOps engineer to improve GitHub Actions workflows, Terraform module structure and state management, artifact versioning and promotion across QA → Staging → Production.
• Establish CI/CD best practices and guide the team toward safe, secure continuous delivery.

Feature Development

• Design and build scalable, secure features in React and Python (e.g., license limits, storage quotas, access management).
• Set high standards for code quality, performance, and reliability.
• Contribute to our definition of best practices for full‑stack development and deployment.

What You Bring

• 8-10 years+ in full stack development, including front‑end: React, TypeScript, HTML/CSS; back‑end: Python (FastAPI or Flask), REST APIs.
• Strong hands‑on experience with AWS ECS, Lambda, API Gateway, S3, DynamoDB.
• Expertise with Terraform, GitHub Actions, Docker‑based workflows.
• CI/CD architecture and monitoring with tools like CloudWatch, Inspector, OpenSearch.
• Passion for performance optimization, clean architecture, and secure delivery practices.
• Bonus: Experience with OpenAI API integration, LaunchDarkly, or microservices documentation practices.

What We Offer

• A unique opportunity to shape the technical foundation of a growing SaaS product.
• The autonomy to lead while being hands‑on with impactful product features.
• A smart, supportive team that values collaboration and shared ownership.
• Basket of benefits including covered meal & other perks.

Technical Stack

• Front‑end: React, TypeScript, HTML/CSS
• Back‑end: Python (FastAPI or Flask), REST APIs
• AWS ECS, Lambda, API Gateway, S3, DynamoDB
• Terraform, GitHub Actions, Docker‑based workflows
• CI/CD architecture and monitoring with tools like CloudWatch, Inspector, OpenSearch
• Passion for performance optimization, clean architecture, and secure delivery practices.
• Bonus: Experience with OpenAI API integration, LaunchDarkly, or microservices documentation practices.
