- Culture Building: Foster an engineering-first culture focused on automation, security-by-design, and proactive production monitoring.
What you will need to have:
- Leadership Experience: 12+ years in progressive technology roles, with at least 3+ years specifically spent building and leading high-performing engineering teams.
- Management Mindset: Proven ability to manage large-scale teams (10+) and navigate the complexities of a large-scale organization.
- Technical Foundation: Strong foundational knowledge in the Modern Java Ecosystem (Spring Boot/Security) and Database management (RDBMS/NoSQL).
- Cloud & Architecture: Experience overseeing applications deployed via Containerization (Docker/Kubernetes) on Cloud platforms like Google, AWS.
- Process Expertise: Mastery of Agile/Scrum and a deep understanding of DevOps/CI-CD pipelines.
- Communication: The ability to explain technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders and advocate for your team’s needs.
What would be great to have:
- Payments Expertise: Experience in Banking, Financial Services, or the Payments industry.
- Real-time Systems: Experience with high-volume transaction processing (200+ tps) and messaging platforms like Kafka.
- Developer Advocacy: A passion for "shipping" software that solves real-world problems while maintaining clean, testable code.
- Mentorship: A track record of developing junior engineers into senior leaders.
