About Univest

Univest is a fast-growing WealthTech platform building research-first, goal-linked investment solutions for Indian investors. We are scaling our engineering organization to support rapid growth, complex financial workflows, and high-availability systems.


Role Summary

We are looking for a Director of Engineering who will report directly to the CTO and own the end-to-end backend and platform engineering function. This role requires a rare mix of deep hands-on coding expertise and strong people leadership, managing 20–30 engineers across multiple squads.

You will drive architecture, scalability, engineering excellence, and delivery, while remaining deeply involved in complex technical problem-solving.


Key Responsibilities

Technology & Architecture

  • Own the backend and platform architecture built primarily on Java, Spring Boot, and GCP
  • Design and scale high-performance, low-latency, highly available systems
  • Lead decisions around system design, microservices, data flows, security, and reliability
  • Solve hard technical problems related to scale, performance, fault tolerance, and cost optimization
  • Be a hands-on coder when required (design reviews, critical fixes, POCs)

Engineering Leadership

  • Lead and manage 20–30 engineers (Backend, Platform, Infra)
  • Mentor Engineering Managers, Tech Leads, and Senior Engineers
  • Set engineering standards for code quality, reviews, testing, documentation, and deployment
  • Build a culture of ownership, accountability, and engineering excellence

Delivery & Execution

  • Drive execution across multiple teams with predictable delivery
  • Partner closely with Product, Data, DevOps, and Security
  • Balance speed vs stability in a fast-scaling startup environment
  • Own roadmap execution, tech debt prioritization, and platform evolution

Org & Process

  • Help scale the engineering org structure, hiring bar, and performance management
  • Establish and improve engineering processes (Agile/Scrum, OKRs, metrics)
  • Act as a thought partner to the CTO on long-term technology strategy


Must Have

  • 8+ years of software engineering experience, including people leadership
  • Strong expertise in Java & Spring Boot (deep backend fundamentals)
  • Hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
  • Proven experience building and scaling production systems at scale
  • Experience managing large teams (20+ engineers) or multiple squads
  • Strong system design skills (distributed systems, microservices, APIs)
  • Ability to dive deep into code when needed, not just delegate
