Overview
Manages Cross-functional team of full-stack developers (backend + frontend + mobile) across multiple product areas
About The Role
We run multiple product areas on a shared microservices platform.
You will own end-to-end delivery, architecture, and code quality for your assigned product areas, run their squads, and represent them in cross-product platform decisions.
What You'Ll Do
- Lead a squad of 5–10 engineers (backend, frontend, mobile) across your assigned product areas sprint planning, design reviews, PR reviews, 1:1s, performance management.
- Own architecture decisions inside your product areas and partner with other Tech Leads and the Head of Technology on platform-wide concerns (shared auth, common backend, mobile app, analytics pipeline).
- Set engineering quality bars: PR review standards, branching / cherry-pick discipline between QA and production, test coverage, migration safety, incident response.
- Drive technical roadmap conversion from product requirements — break down work, estimate, sequence, ship.
- Be hands-on: write code on critical paths, unblock the team, prototype risky changes yourself, ship hotfixes.
- Run incident response for production issues in your product areas — root-cause analysis, post-mortems, prevention.
- Must-have experience
- 7+ years building production web platforms; 2+ years leading engineering teams.
- NestJS monorepos (apps + libs structure) — multiple apps per service sharing typed libs.
- Next.js App Router with server components, ISR / SSR, dynamic routes.
- TypeScript end-to-end (strict mode), modern React (hooks, MUI, Tailwind).
- PostgreSQL at scale — schema design, indexing, query optimisation, Sequelize ORM, migration discipline. Familiarity with Azure Cosmos DB for PostgreSQL for distributed workloads is a plus.
- Search platforms — Azure AI Search (scoring profiles, semantic configurations, synonym maps) and / or Elasticsearch (mappings, aggregations, dashboards).
- Azure application platform: Container Apps, App Services, Function Apps, Service Bus, Storage Blob, Front Door.
- CI/CD on Azure DevOps Pipelines — build → ACR push → container app update; cherry-pick workflows for promoting QA → production.
- AI integration experience — Azure OpenAI (chat, embeddings), prompt design, structured JSON response_format, retries / fallbacks.
- Nice to have
- Marketplace / multi-vertical platform experience.
- Mobile app delivery (Flutter or React Native) — Android + iOS.
- BullMQ / queue-based async processing.
- Multi-tenant / B2B subscription / quota systems.
- Regional payment integrations.
- Moderation systems (Implio or similar).
- ERP integration (e.g. Microsoft Dynamics 365).
- Third-party ATS / recruitment integrations (e.g. Zoho Recruit).
