• Team Collaboration: Work effectively within a team of 10+ members, including three team leads, fostering collaboration, knowledge sharing, and alignment across development streams. 

• AI-Forward Engineering: Champion AI-enabled software development practices, exploring and implementing Agentic SDLC approaches to accelerate development, improve engineering productivity, automate repetitive tasks, and enhance software quality. 

• Engineering Standards: Define and enforce technical standards, coding guidelines, design patterns, architectural principles, and engineering best practices. 

• Mentoring and Development: Mentor engineers and team leads, conduct architecture reviews and code reviews, and promote continuous technical learning. 

• Full-Stack Development: Guide the development of responsive, maintainable frontend applications and robust backend services. 

• API and System Integration: Drive REST API design, system integrations, microservices architecture, and distributed system design. 

• Performance and Security: Ensure application scalability, performance optimization, security, reliability, and responsiveness. 

• Technology Evaluation: Assess and recommend emerging technologies, frameworks, developer tools, and AI-powered engineering solutions. 

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with product managers, designers, QA, and other stakeholders to translate business requirements into effective technical solutions. 

Required Skills & Experience 

• Experience: 10+ years of experience in software engineering, full-stack development, and technical solution design, with demonstrated architectural leadership. 

• React.js: Strong expertise in React.js for frontend application development. 

• Node.js and Next.js: Solid experience with Node.js and Next.js for server-side development and full-stack applications. 

• Express.js: Hands-on experience with Express.js for building RESTful APIs and backend services. 

• Python: Proficiency in Python for backend services, scripting, automation, and microservices. 

• Frontend Technologies: Strong knowledge of HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript ES6+, and modern frontend development practices. 

• APIs and Distributed Systems: Experience designing REST APIs, microservices, system integrations, and distributed applications. 

• Databases: Familiarity with SQL and NoSQL databases, including PostgreSQL and MongoDB. 

• System Design: Strong understanding of system design, scalability, performance optimization, application security, and architectural patterns. 

• Cloud Platforms: Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP is an advantage. 

• People Leadership: Demonstrated ability to provide technical direction, mentor engineers, and collaborate with multiple team leads in a large development team. 

Preferred Skills & Experience 

• Agentic SDLC: Practical experience implementing AI-assisted software engineering and Agentic SDLC workflows. 

• AI Agents and LLMs: Understanding of AI agents, LLM-powered development tools, and automation across software development activities. 

• AI Across Engineering: Experience applying AI to requirements analysis, code generation, testing, code reviews, documentation, and developer productivity. 

• AI Tooling: Familiarity with AI development tools and agentic frameworks, with the ability to evaluate their practical value in enterprise engineering environments. 

• Continuous Improvement: A continuous-improvement mindset focused on engineering efficiency, quality, delivery predictability, and responsible AI adoption. 

Leadership Expectations 

• Shared Architectural Vision: Act as a collaborative technical leader who aligns engineers and team leads around a shared architectural vision. 

• Hands-On Leadership: Balance hands-on technical problem-solving with architecture, mentoring, and technical decision-making. 

• Ownership and Accountability: Encourage ownership, accountability, transparency, and effective collaboration across the team. 

• Measurable AI Adoption: Drive experimentation and adoption of AI-enabled engineering practices based on measurable business and delivery outcomes. 

• Business Alignment: Translate business objectives into scalable technical solutions while balancing quality, maintainability, delivery timelines, and cost.
