Job Description
About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Technical Lead to architect, build, and scale mission-critical, public-facing APIs. This role combines deep hands-on engineering with technical leadership, architectural ownership, and mentorship.
You will define backend standards, guide system design decisions, and ensure our APIs are secure, scalable, and resilient. You are expected to operate at both strategic and execution levels — setting direction while remaining technically hands-on.
Key Responsibilities
Architecture & System Design
- Own end-to-end architecture of public-facing API platforms
- Design scalable, multi-tenant, distributed systems with high availability
- Drive API standards: versioning, backward compatibility, documentation, governance
- Define security, rate limiting, and abuse prevention strategies
- Lead performance optimisation and reliability initiatives
Engineering Execution
- Build and review high-quality backend services using Python and FastAPI
- Architect and optimise asynchronous systems using Celery
- Design and tune complex schemas and queries in PostgreSQL
- Lead production readiness, observability, and incident response improvements
- Drive AWS infrastructure architecture decisions
Technical Leadership
- Mentor backend engineers and raise engineering standards
- Lead design reviews and establish coding best practices
- Partner with Product, Frontend, DevOps, and Data teams
- Drive the technical roadmap and manage technical debt strategically
- Influence long-term platform scalability decisions
Required Skills & Qualifications
- 7-10 years of backend engineering experience with strong production ownership
- Deep expertise in Python/Java and modern API frameworks (FastAPI preferred)
- Proven experience designing and scaling public-facing APIs
- Strong system design expertise (distributed systems, scalability, fault tolerance)
- Extensive experience with PostgreSQL (performance tuning, indexing, transactions)
- Strong experience with Celery or distributed task processing systems
- Hands-on experience with Redis and caching strategies
- Advanced experience with AWS (ECS/EKS, RDS, Lambda, S3, API Gateway, networking)
- Experience implementing secure API architectures (OAuth2, JWT, RBAC, WAF)
- Experience with Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and Infrastructure as Code
- Experience operating high-traffic, production-critical systems
- Experience designing multi-tenant or external partner APIs
Strong Differentiators
- Experience leading backend teams in a product-driven environment
- Experience designing API platforms consumed by third parties
- Frontend exposure (React / Next.js / TypeScript)
- Experience with GraphQL
Experience building developer platforms or SDKs
