About the Role
We are looking for a highly driven Senior Technical Lead who can own our technology vision, lead engineering teams, architect scalable products, and become the future Chief Technology Officer (CTO).
This is not just another engineering management role. We need someone who thinks like a founder, takes complete ownership, makes technology decisions independently, and builds world-class products from the ground up.
The ideal candidate should be equally comfortable discussing architecture with engineers, presenting solutions to enterprise clients, solving production issues, and defining the company's long-term technology roadmap.
Key Responsibilities
Technology Leadership
- Own the complete technology roadmap across products.
- Define engineering standards, architecture, and best practices.
- Lead technical decision-making with long-term scalability in mind.
- Build highly scalable and secure enterprise-grade platforms.
- Drive engineering excellence across backend, frontend, cloud, AI, DevOps, and infrastructure.
- Review architecture before implementation.
- Establish coding standards and engineering governance.
- Continuously improve product performance, security, and reliability.
Product Ownership
- Convert business requirements into technical execution plans.
- Work closely with founders, product managers, and customers.
- Own product delivery from design to deployment.
- Identify risks early and proactively solve them.
- Prioritize engineering efforts based on business impact.
Team Leadership
- Build, mentor, and inspire engineering teams.
- Conduct code reviews and technical mentoring.
- Hire top engineering talent.
- Create a high-performance engineering culture.
- Drive accountability and ownership across the team.
Engagement
- Interact directly with enterprise customers.
- Lead technical discussions, architecture workshops, and solution presentations.
- Understand customer requirements and convert them into scalable solutions.
- Build trust with CXOs, CTOs, and technical stakeholders.
- Evaluate emerging technologies.
- Build reusable engineering frameworks.
- Introduce automation wherever possible.
- Drive engineering productivity without compromising quality.
Strong expertise in multiple areas including:
- Distributed Systems
- Microservices
- Cloud Architecture (AWS/Azure/GCP)
- Kubernetes & Docker
- DevOps & CI/CD
- System Design
- API Architecture
- Security Best Practices
- Databases (SQL & NoSQL)
- Performance Optimization
- Event-driven Architecture
- AI Platform Integration (where applicable)
- Monitoring & Observability
The candidate must possess exceptional communication skills.
They should be able to:
- Present technology confidently to enterprise customers.
- Explain complex architecture in simple business language.
- Lead customer meetings independently.
- Handle technical escalations professionally.
- Work effectively with founders, sales, product, and engineering teams.
We are looking for someone who:
- Takes complete ownership.
- Thinks like a founder.
- Is proactive rather than reactive.
- Makes decisions independently.
- Challenges ideas with technical reasoning.
- Builds systems that last for years, not months.
- Inspires teams through execution.
- Is comfortable handling ambiguity.
AI Usage Policy- ImportantWe value engineers who can solve problems through deep technical understanding—not by relying excessively on AI tools.
The ideal candidate should:
- Have strong fundamentals in computer science and software engineering.
- Be capable of independently designing systems, debugging complex issues, and writing production-quality code.
- Use AI assistants (such as ChatGPT, Claude, GitHub Copilot, etc.) as productivity aids—not as substitutes for engineering knowledge, architecture decisions, or problem-solving ability.
- Demonstrate original thinking, technical judgment, and ownership during interviews and day-to-day work.
Candidates who are unable to explain or defend their technical decisions without AI assistance are unlikely to be a good fit.
What We're Looking For
- 10–15+ years of software engineering experience.
- Proven experience leading engineering teams.
- Experience building enterprise SaaS products.
- Strong architecture and system design skills.
- Excellent stakeholder management.
- Strong ownership mindset.
- Experience scaling products from startup to enterprise.
- Passion for building products, not just managing teams.
Work Culture
- 100% Work From Office
- No remote or hybrid work.
- We believe great products are built through close collaboration, rapid decision-making, and strong team interaction.
- Candidates should be comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment with high ownership and accountability.
This role is designed for someone who wants to build, lead, and eventually become the Chief Technology Officer (CTO). High performers will have the opportunity to own the complete technology organization and play a strategic role in shaping the company's future.
Compensation
Compensation will be among the best in the industry for the right candidate and will include a performance-based growth path aligned with future technology leadership responsibilities.
