Ensure robust unit, integration, and end-to-end testing coverage.
Work closely with frontend/mobile teams to define API contracts and integration points.
Collaborate with product and design teams to translate requirements into sound engineering solutions.
Present architectural decisions and trade-offs clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Support business development efforts through technical discovery and estimation.
Oversee CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation, and environment configuration.
Ensure reliability, observability, and operational readiness of backend systems.
Work with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure) to support scalable and secure deployments.
 

Qualifications

7+ years of backend development experience.
Proficiency in multiple backend languages/frameworks including Java and Node.js.

Experience designing and scaling REST or GraphQL APIs.

Comfort with agentic development models using AI-assisted tools such as Claude Code CLI.
Experience leading engineering teams or acting as a senior-level project owner.
Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams.
