• 2–8+ years of professional software engineering experience, depending on technical depth, seniority, and leadership scope.

• Ability to lead and mentor other engineers while remaining hands-on

• Demonstrate strong curiosity, observance, and drive.

• Strong technical proficiency in:

• React, JavaScript, TypeScript, UI/UX

• Node.js, Python, Java, REST APIs

• PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Data Modeling

• System Design, Microservices, Modular Architecture

• AWS, Azure, GCP

• CI/CD, Docker, Kubernetes

• AI-assisted Development, GitHub Copilot, AI Workflows

• Technical Leadership, Mentoring, Engineering Standards

• Product Thinking, Technical Discovery, End-to-End Ownership

What you'll be doing: 1 . Build, Prototype & Ship End-to-End

• Act as a primary hands-on builder in an autonomous pod, taking features from whiteboard design through full-stack implementation to production deployment.

• Leverage modern AI-assisted development workflows (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) to rapidly prototype, iterate on user interfaces, and build high-performance backend services.

• Deliver resilient, clean, and maintainable code across the entire stack—spanning responsive React frontends, Python microservices, and cloud-native backends.

2 . Drive Hypothesis-Driven Product Engineering

• Partner closely with product managers and domain experts to deconstruct complex user journeys and identify the highest-leverage technical solutions.

• Design quick, low-cost technical experiments and interactive prototypes that generate high-signal user feedback before committing to full-scale architecture.

• Challenge assumptions at every stage—focusing relentlessly on solving the right problem and measuring real product outcomes rather than raw engineering activity.

1. Architect Scalable, Resilient Cloud Systems

• Design robust, modular system architectures and clean API contracts that scale cleanly across enterprise workloads.

• Make deliberate build-vs-configure-vs-orchestrate decisions, leveraging modern serverless primitives (AWS Lambda, S3, CloudFront), PostgreSQL, document/data stores (PostgreSQL / RDS PostgreSQL), and Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform).

• Establish lightweight architectural patterns, reusable UI components, and shared service utilities that enable the pod to move with high velocity without accumulating unsustainable technical debt.

4 . Provide Technical Thought Leadership & Rigorous Validation

• Serve as the technical benchmark and final line of validation for complex codebases and system architectures—whether authored by engineers or generated by AI tools.

• Maintain deep technical fluency to spot correctness bugs, security vulnerabilities, edge cases, and performance bottlenecks in AI-generated output.

• Define and champion automated testing strategies (unit, integration, and end-to-end), CI/CD governance, and modern observability practices.

• Mentor fellow engineers through pair programming, architectural discussions, and sharing reusable mental models.
