This role is suited for a senior engineer who thrives in high-growth environments and is ready to take ownership of architecture and technical direction. You’ll work across the full stack — designing microservices, building modern front-end applications, optimizing databases, and ensuring cloud systems run reliably at scale. The position is structured to provide a clear path toward software architecture leadership, making it an ideal opportunity for someone eager to combine hands-on engineering with architectural vision.

What You’ll Do

• Lead the design and development of scalable applications that balance performance, reliability, and maintainability.
• Influence architectural decisions, establish coding standards, and champion best practices across the engineering team.
• Build, optimize, and maintain Java/Spring Boot microservices and modern Angular front-end applications.
• Ensure database schemas and queries are efficient, scalable, and secure, with a focus on continuous performance improvements.
• Design and maintain cloud-based infrastructure using AWS, containerization, and CI/CD pipelines to support rapid delivery.
• Drive quality engineering by implementing testing strategies, observability practices, and proactive issue resolution.
• Collaborate closely with product, QA, and operations teams to deliver features that meet business needs.
• Mentor and support fellow engineers, helping the team grow both technically and professionally.

Basic Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science or related field.

• Solid knowledge of Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience in TDD/BDD and automated testing frameworks.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.

Preferred / Nice to Have Requirements

• Deep understanding of microservices and REST API design.
• Strong track record in system performance tuning and caching strategies.
• Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform/CloudFormation).
• Experience mentoring teams and influencing technical direction.
• Strong knowledge of observability and operational excellence practices.

The Challenges

• Designing resilient systems that support rapid business growth.
• Maintaining scalability and performance in cloud-native architectures.
• Adapting to evolving priorities in a fast-moving digital environment.

Your Impact
