We are looking for a highly technical, hands-on Tech Lead to build and lead a Core Engineering Team that operates across all R&D squads.
This team will act as a force multiplier – solving complex system challenges, driving architectural improvements, and enabling development teams to move faster with higher quality.
This is a deeply hands-on role (50%), combining system design, architecture, and execution in a data-critical, high-scale environment.
What Makes This Role Different:
Not a feature team – focus on system-level problems
Not a traditional manager – strong hands-on ownership
Not advisory – drives and executes real changes in production
Works across teams – true cross-team impact
Responsibilities:
Cross-Team Technical Leadership:
Lead a Core Team working across multiple squads
Identify system-wide bottlenecks, risks, and architectural gaps
Drive alignment on engineering standards and best practices
Partner closely with Tech Leads, Product, and Dev teams
Architecture & System Design:
Own and evolve system architecture (Monolith → Modular / Services)
Reduce tight coupling and improve system boundaries
Lead major refactoring and modernization efforts
Ensure scalability, performance, and resilience
Microservice architecture (from modular monolith to microservices)
Hands-On Development (70%):
Write complex production code across services
Lead by example in code quality and design
Take ownership of the most challenging technical problems
Engineering Excellence & Enablement:
Define and enforce development standards (Code Reviews, Design Patterns)
Improve observability (monitoring, logging, alerting)
Build reusable tools, infrastructure, and shared components
Enable teams to deliver faster with higher quality
Advantage for AI driven standard validations
Mentorship & Technical Growth:
Mentor engineers and Tech Leads across teams
Raise the engineering bar across the organization
Support teams in production debugging and solving complex production issues
Tech Stack:
Backend: Node.js, (Express,nestJS), PHP (advantage)
Frontend: React, Redux, React Hooks
Data: MySQL, SQL, Redis
Infrastructure: AWS
Advantage: Experience with agent frameworks (agentic flows).
