Role Overview:

We are seeking a Tech Lead (5–14 yrs experience) to design, build, and scale the technology

foundation for our Support Excellence function. This role sits at the intersection of engineering,

product, and operations ensuring that our internal teams and, eventually, our end users

experience seamless, efficient, and data-driven support.

You will lead a small but high-impact team of engineers, own the support tooling roadmap, and

implement solutions that handle ticket triage, data quality issues, automation, and integrations

with our healthcare SaaS platform.

This is a hands-on technical leadership role ideal for someone who thrives on solving

operational challenges through technology, building frameworks from scratch, and enabling

customer-facing and internal support teams to scale effectively.

Key Responsibilities

1. Build & Enhance Support Platform:

● Own the engineering roadmap for support tooling — ticketing systems, triage workflows,

knowledge bases, and automation bots.

● Design and implement scalable support frameworks, ensuring fast triage, data-driven

escalation, and high-quality resolution.

● Integrate support tooling with product backend, CMS, and analytics systems to enable

context-aware assistance.

2. Technical Leadership & Delivery:

● Lead a small team of engineers (SEs and SSEs), providing guidance on design, architecture,

and coding standards.

● Stay hands-on with coding and reviews while enabling the team to deliver high-quality,

maintainable solutions.

● Partner closely with Program Managers and Business Analysts to translate requirements

into technical execution.

3. Automation, Data & AI-Driven Support:

● Implement automation workflows (bots, routing, notifications) to reduce manual load and

optimize SLA adherence.

● Drive the adoption of AI/ML solutions for ticket classification, triage, and predictive

resolution.

● Build analytics dashboards to track support KPIs (FRT, TTR, resolution quality).

● Partner with Product Managers, Designers, and Engineers to ensure delivery fidelity.

● Restore transparency and speed between business stakeholders and tech teams.

4. Cross-functional Collaboration:

● Work with Product, QA, Customer Success, and Ops to ensure support needs are captured

early in the roadmap.

● Serve as the engineering voice in discussions on escalation flows, release readiness, and

customer-facing support enablement.

● Collaborate with content and ops teams to power self-service experiences (knowledge

bases, FAQs, in-app help).

5. Documentation & Knowledge Management:

● Maintain technical documentation for support tooling, workflows, and integrations.

● Contribute to knowledge bases (internal + external) alongside ops and content teams.

● Foster a documentation-first culture to enable faster onboarding and smoother

collaboration.

What We’re Looking For

Must-Have

● 5–7 years of experience in software engineering, with at least 2+ years in a senior/lead

role.

● Proven track record in building internal platforms, support tools, or automation systems.

● Strong technical skills: Python/Node/Java, SQL, cloud services (AWS/GCP), and integration

experience with ticketing/support platforms (e.g., Zendesk, Freshdesk, ServiceNow, Jira

Service Management).

● Experience leading small teams and owning delivery from design → build → release.

● Excellent problem-solving skills with a bias for execution in fast-paced environments.

Nice to Have

● Exposure to SaaS or healthcare platforms with multi-tenant architecture.

● Familiarity with AI/ML-driven support solutions (classification, prediction, NLP chatbots).

● Hands-on experience with support metrics and dashboards (CSAT, SLA adherence, TTR).

● Knowledge of documentation frameworks (Confluence, Notion, Git-based wikis).

WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON

• Design and implement scalable APIs and microservices using Node.js & Express
• Manage deployments via GitHub Actions and CodeDeploy; work with Docker & AWS
• Optimize MongoDB queries and use Redis caching for high-concurrency traffic
• Bridge Figma designs to backend logic using Next.js and Tailwind CSS
• Maintain monitoring with Nginx & PM2 to ensure 99.9% uptime

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• 1+ year of professional experience building and maintaining production applications
• Deep Node.js knowledge: async programming, RESTful API architecture
• MongoDB mastery: schema design, indexing strategies, complex aggregation pipelines
• Hands-on AWS (EC2/S3 minimum) and practical CI/CD pipeline experience
• Proven ability to take a feature from PRD / Figma to stable production deployment

WHAT WILL MAKE YOU STAND OUT

• Experience maintaining apps with high concurrent user counts
• Comfortable with Nginx configs and Dockerfiles
• Hands-on with payment gateway integration (Cashfree) and webhook handling
• Obsession with maintainable, well-documented, DRY code

AI Usage Policy:

AI tools (Cursor, Copilot, GPT-4) are force multipliers — use them. But you must own your code, reason hrough architectural trade-offs, and debug without relying solely on AI.

HOW TO APPLY:

• Tell us about the most complex bug you've solved or a backend system you built from scratch
• Share your GitHub profile
• Include at least two live project links showcasing your best work
• Your code will directly impact the learning outcomes of thousands of students.
