- Lead design and code reviews; enforce best practices for testing,CI/CD, observability, security, and cost-efficient cloud operations.
- Drive technical roadmaps, ensuring scalability (billions of events, 99.9%+ uptime) and rapid feature delivery.
2.Team Leadership & Growth
- Manage and inspire a distributed team of 6-10 backend engineers across multiple time zones.
- Set clear growth objectives, run 1-on-1s, deliver feedback, and foster an inclusive, high-trust culture.
- Coach the team on AI-assisted development workflows (e.g., GitHubCopilot, LLM-based code review) to boost productivity and code quality.
3.Stakeholder Collaboration
-
Act as technical liaison to Product, Frontend, SRE, and Data teams, translating business goals into resilient backend solutions.
-
Communicate complex concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences; influence cross-functional decisions.
4.Technical Vision & Governance
- Own coding standards, architectural principles, and technology selection.
- Evaluate emerging tools and frameworks (especially around GenAI and cloud-native patterns) and create adoption strategies.
- Balance technical debt and new feature delivery through data-driven prioritization.
Required Qualifications:
- 8+ years designing, building, and operating distributed backend systems with Java & Spring Boot

- Startup experience—comfortable wearing multiple hats and juggling several projects simultaneously
- Prior title of Principal Engineer, Staff Engineer, or Engineering Manager in a high-growth SaaS company
- Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools (Copilot, CodeWhisperer, Cursor) and a track record of introducing them safely
