Job Summary:
Our client is a fast-growing B2B SaaS company building enterprise-grade platforms for global partners. We are establishing our Hyderabad engineering hub and looking for a Java Team Lead to be one of its founding members. You will own technical delivery end-to-end, collaborate as a peer with our engineering teams across hubs, and help define what great engineering looks like in Hyderabad.
You will sit at the intersection of hands-on engineering and team leadership — writing code, guiding juniors, and ensuring what gets shipped is reliable, scalable, and delivers real value to our enterprise clients.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead the design and delivery of microservices and backend systems that form the core of client's B2B platform.
- Make and defend architectural decisions — data models, API contracts, service boundaries — in collaboration with senior engineers across hubs.
- Set and enforce coding standards, PR review practices.
- Be the technical point of contact for the Hyderabad hub in cross-team discussions with other hubs.
- Contribute hands-on code — this is a lead role, not a manager role.
- Guide and mentor junior and mid-level engineers in the Hyderabad team; accelerate their growth through structured feedback and pairing.
- Participate in hiring — technical interviews, code assessments, and culture-fit evaluations for the growing Hyderabad team.
- Foster a team culture of ownership, peer accountability, and continuous improvement.
- Own sprint-level delivery commitments — plan, estimate, identify risks early, and unblock the team.
- Champion engineering quality: test coverage, CI/CD discipline, observability, and zero-surprise production deployments.
- Track and improve DORA metrics (deployment frequency, lead time, change failure rate, MTTR) as a measure of team health.
- Collaborate with QA to embed quality upstream — not as a handoff, but as a shared responsibility.
- Translate technical constraints into business language clearly — proactively, not reactively.
- Identify technical debt that impacts product velocity or client experience and build a case for addressing it.
Required Qualifications:
MUST HAVE
- Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or any relevant field.
- 6+ years of Java engineering experience, with at least 1–2 years in a tech lead or senior engineer capacity.
- Deep proficiency in Java (Java 11+), Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, REST APIs, and microservices architecture.
- Fluency in English. Effective communication skills, both verbal and written, with the ability to convey technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
- Knowledge of project management methodologies.
- Ability to work effectively across time zones
- Hands-on experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL/MySQL) — schema design, query optimisation, indexing.
- Build tools (Maven or Gradle) and standard Java logging/observability frameworks (SLF4J, Logback, OpenTelemetry, Prometheus/Grafana).
NICE TO HAVE
- Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure), Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines.
- Experience with event-driven architecture — Kafka, RabbitMQ, or similar.
- Exposure to frontend technologies (ReactJS) — enough to collaborate meaningfully with full-stack & frontend engineers.
- Familiarity with enterprise SaaS integration patterns — webhooks, OAuth, multi-tenancy, API gateways.
- Experience working in a multi-hub global engineering team.
- Understanding of SaaS business metrics — churn, NPS, SLA — and how engineering decisions affect them.
- WebSocket workflow
- Comfortable with exploring new technologies.
- Have a strong understanding of software development lifecycles and modern transaction processing environments.
- Experience with distributed caching (Redis) or NoSQL databases (MongoDB, DynamoDB).
- Self-motivated with a “can-do” attitude, result-oriented, organized and ability to work independently with priorities under tight timelines, in a complex customer environment.
- Excellent interpersonal skills to establish and maintain good relationships with colleagues, clients and head quarter management.
What We Offer
- A founding role in Vortech's Hyderabad engineering hub — high visibility, high impact from day one.
- Peer-level collaboration with experienced engineering teams across the globe.
- Direct mentorship from the Head of Engineering with a clear growth path
- Competitive compensation benchmarked to Hyderabad senior engineering market rates.
- A culture that values engineering craft, business awareness, and user empathy equally.
