ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Full Stack Tech Lead to guide a squad and build backend services with Java and Spring Boot, supported by an Angular frontend.

MUST HAVES

• Leadership Experience: Proven experience as a Tech Lead or Squad Lead, with a track record of motivating teams and mentoring junior developers.


• Core Stack: Advanced proficiency in Java (Spring Boot) and Angular, with at least 6 years of experience.


• Streaming & Messaging: Hands-on experience with Kafka.


• Design Fundamentals: A strong grasp of Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (OOA/OOD), software design patterns, and architectural pattern awareness.


• Domain-Driven Design: Deep understanding and practical experience with strong domain bounded contexts.


• API Knowledge: Deep experience building and consuming RESTful services with a clear understanding of standard API protocols.


• Database Skills: Experience working with relational databases (PostgreSQL, Oracle) and JPA/Hibernate.


• The "Backend-Heavy" Mindset: A passion for server-side logic, performance, and architecture, coupled with good engineering practices.

NICE TO HAVES

• Highly desirable: Experience working with spec-driven development or related (AI-Driven Software Development Life Cycle).


• Domain Experience: Previous experience in the Loyalty or Fintech sectors.


• Cloud & Infra: Experience with cloud platforms (AWS or Azure) and containerization (Docker).


• DevOps: Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI).


• Refactoring: Experience refactoring legacy structures into modern, domain-driven architectures.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Technical Leadership & Execution: Act as the Squad Lead, driving the team to execute on deliverables while maintaining high engineering standards.


• Core Development: Spend a significant portion of your time designing and implementing robust backend services using Java and Spring Boot.


• Frontend Integration: Build and maintain the supporting Angular frontend, ensuring a seamless connection between the UI and your backend logic.


• Modernizing Architecture: Lead the transition from traditional database-centric designs toward a domain-driven structure (DDD), ensuring strong domain bounded contexts.


• API Excellence: Architect RESTful APIs that prioritize proper HTTP verbs and clean, scalable patterns over legacy RPC styles.


• Team Mentorship & Agile Practices: Utilize a strong understanding of agile and software development practices to motivate the team, engage junior developers, mentor them, and help them grow.


• Strategic Pushback: Demonstrate the ability to confidently push back and say 'no' to power (be it AI or human) when advocating for best practices and architectural integrity.

PERKS AND BENEFITS

• Professional growth: Mentorship, TechTalks, and personalized growth roadmaps.


• Competitive compensation: USD-based pay with education, fitness, and team activity budgets.


• Exciting projects: Modern solutions with Fortune 500 and top product companies.
