Responsibilities

Provide technical leadership for complex, high‑impact initiatives, ensuring solutions are scalable, secure, maintainable, and aligned with product and business objectives.
Lead system and component‑level architecture design in partnership with engineers and architects.
Own end‑to‑end technical execution for key projects, from design through delivery, proactively managing risks and dependencies.
Translate high‑level designs into well‑scoped tasks, estimates, and implementation plans.
Design, implement, and evolve cloud‑native architectures using modern patterns (microservices, event‑driven systems, API‑first design), technologies and tools.
Set and enforce high engineering standards through code reviews, CI/CD, testing, TDD, observability, and DevOps practices.
Build, prioritize, and manage technical debt and drive performance, scalability, and reliability improvements using data‑driven insights.
Mentor and coach engineers, fostering strong engineering judgment, collaboration, ownership, continuous learning and skill development.
Partner closely with Product Managers, UX, QA, Security, and Infrastructure teams to deliver solutions that meet functional and non‑functional requirements.
Clearly communicate technical trade‑offs, risks, and recommendations to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
Support alignment between product priorities and technical execution, ensuring predictable, high‑quality delivery.
Remain deeply hands‑on, contributing with high‑quality, production‑ready code for critical components and complex problem areas.
Troubleshoot and resolve complex production issues, applying strong diagnostic and problem‑solving skills.
Continuously evaluate and adopt modern technologies and tools that improve system reliability and team effectiveness.
Perform other duties as assigned to support departmental and company objectives.
