  • Work with product managers and stakeholders to define sprint plans, roadmaps, and releases.
  •  Guide architectural decisions and ensure best practices across backend, frontend, and API layers.
    Ensure consistency in software design, scalability, security, and maintainability.

  •  Facilitate collaboration across engineering, product, QA, and DevOps teams.
  • Report regularly to the CTO on team progress, risks, dependencies, and resource needs.
  •  Implement and refine engineering processes (Agile, CI/CD, code reviews, documentation).
    Champion automation, testing, and observability initiatives.

    service orchestration.

  • API & Data Handling
    Strong understanding of RESTful API design principles; experience with GraphQL is a plus. Skilled in both SQL (e.g.,
    PostgreSQL) and NoSQL (e.g., MongoDB) data modeling.

  • Cloud & DevOps
    Practical experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP), containerization using Docker, and orchestration 
    using Kubernetes. Familiarity with Infrastructure-as-Code (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation).

  • Engineering Practices

    frameworks.

  • Soft Skills
    Exceptional communication skills with the ability to clearly articulate technical decisions. Experience in mentoring and 
    leading cross-functional engineering efforts.

 QUALIFICATIONS
  •  - Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
