  • Guide the evolution of system architecture, ensuring scalability, performance, and maintainability. Champion the adoption of modern technologies and development practices.
  • Partner closely with Product, QA, DevOps, and executive stakeholders to align priorities, define technical requirements, and maintain a shared roadmap.
  • Identify and mitigate risks across the development lifecycle. Promote best practices in observability, security, testing, and release management.
  • Foster a high-performance culture grounded in transparency, continuous improvement, and a shared commitment to quality and innovation.

Qualifications & Skills

  • 10+ years of experience in software development, including 5+ years in engineering leadership roles.
  • Proven success leading large-scale, cross-functional engineering teams in complex, high-growth environments.
  • Strong expertise in modern architectures, cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure), and microservices.
  • Deep understanding of Agile development methodologies, CI/CD practices, and engineering metrics.
  • Experience managing distributed teams and scaling organizations across multiple geographies.
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, capable of interfacing with technical and non-technical leaders alike.
  • Sharp decision-making and problem-solving ability in high-stakes environments.
  • Fluent in English (written and verbal).
  • Nice to Have

  • Experience in the gaming, fintech, or platform-as-a-service industries.
  • Familiarity with payments infrastructure, user-facing APIs, or developer tools.
  • Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
