Customers & Communication • Communicate clearly with customers, support, product, and engineering — no jargon hiding the actual status. • Unblock customers from a technical perspective: reproduce, triage, explain impact, and drive a fix or workaround. • Own customer escalations: join the call, set expectations, coordinate the engineering response, and close the loop. Technical Leadership • Hold the bar on architecture, reviews, testing, and production readiness for backend systems. • Make or facilitate calls across services, data stores, and messaging — without becoming the bottleneck. • Partner with SDE-3s and tech leads on RFCs, incidents, and the technical roadmap. Production • Ensure the team can deploy, roll back, and debug services on GCP and DigitalOcean. • Drive incident response and post-incident follow-through when production or a customer is hurting. Engineering Practices • Install simple habits: design reviews, on-call, observability, documentation. • Use AI tools for coding, review, tests, and docs; keep accountability with the engineer who ships. Technologies We Use • Languages / runtime: Go, Node.js (JavaScript / TypeScript). • Data: MongoDB, ClickHouse, Redis, Memcached. • APIs & messaging: REST, gRPC, Kafka, Google Pub/Sub. • Cloud & delivery: GCP, DigitalOcean, Docker, Kubernetes, Jenkins / GitHub Actions, Argo. • Observability: Grafana. Requirements • 8+ years in software engineering, including time as an Engineering Manager or lead with direct people responsibility. • BE/Btech graduate. • Comfortable in working from office. • Has owned delivery for a backend team shipping production services. • Strong communicator — can explain a technical issue to a customer and a trade-off to leadership. • Has handled customer or production escalations: triage, communication, and close-out. • Working fluency with distributed backend systems: APIs, gRPC, Kafka or equivalent, data stores, caches. • Hands-on enough in Node.js (JavaScript / TypeScript) and/or Go to review designs and debug with the • team. • Understands deploying and operating services on a public cloud (GCP and/or DigitalOcean preferred). • Can work from production evidence: logs, metrics, traces, Grafana or equivalent. • Uses AI assistants for coding, reviews, tests, and documentation — without lowering the quality bar. Benefits • Performance-driven culture with accelerated growth opportunities for high achievers • Best-in-industry compensation aligned with your skills and contributions • Comprehensive medical insurance coverage and employee-focused benefits • Attractive reimbursement policies that support your professional and personal development • 5-day working week designed to promote work-life balance and long-term career success
