  • Collaborate closely with Product, SRE, DevOps, Data, Operations, and other R& D teams to achieve business goals.
  • Design robust technical solutions, evaluate architectural options, and define technical direction and quality standards.
  • Promote a culture of innovation and personal development within the organization.
  • Take ownership of team growth, recruitment, and development processes.

 

Requirements:

  • A collaborative team player with strong leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to mentor, inspire, and build high-performing engineering teams.
  • A passion for managing and growing talent.
  • Ambition and a strong eagerness to learn and adapt.
  • Strategic thinking with a strong problem-solving and analytical mindset.

 

What you will need:

  • Leadership: 5+ years of managerial experience, leading large development groups or overseeing R& D in small/medium companies.
  • Development: 10+ years as a developer with full-stack experience (e. g., C#, . NET, Java).
  • Technical Expertise: Proficiency with REST APIs, Queues, and Microservices architecture.
  • Architectural Knowledge: Strong understanding of OOP, design patterns, and system development (not just services).
