What you will do

Own the technical direction and architecture of your product area, keeping it aligned with the product roadmap.
Write production code across backend, frontend, and mobile - hands-on engineering will make up most of the role.
Take on the hardest technical challenges, especially those crossing services, applications, or teams.
Make architecture decisions around service boundaries, APIs, contracts, and data flows, and clearly communicate the trade-offs behind them.
Set the standard for code quality, reviews, automated testing, CI/CD, and engineering practices across the team.
Identify technical risks early and make pragmatic trade-offs between speed, maintainability, security, reliability, and regulatory requirements.
Work with Product, Engineering, Platform/DevOps, Compliance, Risk, Security, and external partners to deliver solutions that are technically sound and production-ready.
Own observability and production health, participate in incidents, and ensure follow-up improvements are completed.
Reduce technical debt and knowledge silos, ensuring critical systems do not depend on a single person.
Help the team adopt AI coding agents, automation, and shared engineering tooling effectively.
