Description

As a lead software engineer, you design, build, and deliver high-performance, scalable software systems. This is a hands-on role: you spend your time in the code, combining deep technical expertise with mentorship as you build and run production-ready solutions.

You are responsible for:

  • Designing and building scalable solutions with a strong focus on performance, maintainability, and cross-component integration.
  • Taking ownership of delivery from design to production, and living "you build it, you run it", so your team owns what it ships and keeps it reliable in production.
  • Staying hands-on in the code while keeping delivery on track: unblocking the team, holding the bar on quality, and mentoring fellow engineers.
  • Challenging and refining requirements with product analysts to ensure clarity, feasibility, and delivery readiness.
  • Owning technical correctness, including performance and scalability.
  • You shift quality left and reimagine how QA is done, building AI-based testing frameworks that deliver strong automation and fast feedback so issues surface early. This covers the full range of testing: performance, load, spike, soak, and security testing.
  • Building observability into the software as a core principle, so your team can run it with confidence and catch issues before customers do.
