Role Summary

We are seeking top-tier Lead Engineers who can design, build, and deliver large-scale distributed systems with high performance, reliability, and operational excellence. The ideal candidate will be a hands-on engineer with expert system design ability, deep understanding of distributed architectures, and strong communication and leadership skills.

  • Ensure designs meet performance, reliability, security, and cost objectives.
  • Make informed design trade-offs with solid technical reasoning.

2. Component & Communication Design

  • Break complex systems into independently deployable services.
  • Define APIs, communication contracts, data models, and event schemas.
  • Apply modern architecture patterns such as microservices, event-driven design, DDD, CQRS, and hexagonal architecture.
  • Ensure component clarity, maintainability, and extensibility.

3. Communication Protocol & Middleware

  • Design both sync and async communication layers: REST, RPC, gRPC, message queues, event streams (Kafka/Kinesis/Pulsar).
  • Define retry/timeout strategies, circuit breakers, rate limiting, and versioning strategies.
  • Handle backpressure, partitioning, delivery semantics (at-least/at-most/exactly once).

4. Data Architecture & Storage Strategy

  • Architect data models and storage strategies for SQL and NoSQL databases, distributed caches, blob stores, and search indexes.
  • Define sharding/partitioning, replication, consistency, indexing, backup/restore, and schema evolution strategies.
  • Design real-time and batch data processing pipelines.

5. Operational Readiness

  • Define observability (metrics, logs, traces) requirements.
  • Collaborate with DevOps to ensure deployment, monitoring, alerts, and incident management readiness.
  • Provide production support as a senior technical owner.

6. Leadership & Influence

  • Lead technical discussions, design reviews, and cross-team collaboration.
  • Mentor engineers and help elevate team practices.
  • Influence technology direction and architectural standards.

Required Qualifications

  • 10+ years of professional software engineering experience with strong backend and distributed systems background.
  • Proven track record of leading large-scale architecture and delivery of production systems.
  • Expert in system design with the ability to simplify ambiguity and craft robust solutions.
  • Strong programming experience in one or more languages (Java, Go, Python, C++).
  • Deep understanding of distributed systems, message streaming, queues, RPC/REST, and event-driven architecture.
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/GCP) and container technologies (Kubernetes/Docker).
  • Strong communication, documentation, and leadership skills.

Preferred Skills

  • Experience with large-scale messaging/streaming (Kafka/Pulsar), caching, and NoSQL.
  • Experience designing for high availability, fault tolerance, and performance at scale.
  • Mentoring and leading global engineering teams.
  • Familiarity with observability tooling (Grafana, Prometheus, Jaeger).
