Key Responsibilities

• Lead the design and implementation of full-stack features and systems across frontend, backend, APIs, and supporting infrastructure.
• Translate business and product priorities into clear technical execution plans, milestones, and dependencies.
• Own architecture and implementation decisions with a strong balance of speed, flexibility, quality, and long-term maintainability.
• Work closely with iOS and Android teams to ensure backend and cross-platform dependencies are planned and delivered well.
• Write high-quality production code and raise the engineering bar through thoughtful code reviews and technical guidance.
• Identify and resolve technical debt, performance bottlenecks, reliability issues, and release risks early.
• Improve development practices across testing, debugging, deployment readiness, monitoring, and post-release stability.
• Bring stronger ownership and execution discipline to projects, especially where requirements are evolving or ambiguous.
• Support faster experimentation and product iteration by building systems that can evolve cleanly.
• Contribute to hiring, onboarding, and mentoring from a technical leadership perspective.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong hands-on experience building and shipping full-stack products in a product-focused environment.
• Solid depth across web and backend systems, with the ability to drive end-to-end execution.
• Strong judgment on architecture, trade-offs, scalability, reliability, and maintainability.
• Able to break down ambiguous product asks into practical and well-scoped technical plans.
• Experience collaborating closely with cross-functional teams including product, design, and mobile engineering.
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment with evolving priorities and high ownership expectations.
• Strong problem-solving ability and a bias toward action.
• Clear communication skills and the ability to work effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

What Success Looks Like

• Key product initiatives move from idea to launch with stronger speed, clarity, and technical quality.
• Web and backend systems become more reliable, easier to scale, and better aligned with product needs.
• Cross-platform execution improves, with fewer handoff issues across backend, web, iOS, and Android.
• Engineering decisions show strong judgment around trade-offs, maintainability, and long-term scalability.
• The team operates with better technical discipline, accountability, and confidence in delivery.
