Job Summary

We are looking for an experienced and hands-on Technical Lead with strong software engineering expertise and a proven track record of building scalable, secure, and production-grade web applications.

The ideal candidate will have 6+ years of software development experience, strong expertise across modern frontend and backend technologies, and the ability to take end-to-end technical ownership—from architecture and development through deployment and production support.

The role requires a technically hands-on leader who can provide architectural direction, mentor developers, review code, solve complex engineering challenges, and ensure high standards of engineering quality.

Practical knowledge of AI/GenAI technologies is important. Prior experience in the Indian FinTech/BFSI ecosystem will be strongly preferred.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the technical design, architecture, development, and delivery of web-based applications.
• Take end-to-end technical ownership of projects, ensuring scalable, maintainable, secure, and high-quality implementations.
• Work hands-on across frontend, backend, databases, APIs, cloud infrastructure, and third-party integrations.
• Define technical architecture, technology choices, coding standards, and engineering best practices.
• Conduct code reviews and ensure high standards of code quality, performance, security, and maintainability.
• Mentor developers and provide technical guidance throughout design and implementation.
• Identify technical risks, bottlenecks, scalability concerns, and architectural challenges early in the development lifecycle.
• Collaborate with Product Managers, Business Analysts, Designers, QA, DevOps, and other stakeholders to translate business requirements into effective technical solutions.

• Participate in effort estimation, sprint planning, technical discussions, and delivery planning.
• Troubleshoot complex production issues and drive root-cause analysis and permanent resolutions.
• Evaluate and introduce new technologies, frameworks, development practices, and AI-assisted engineering tools where appropriate.
• Identify opportunities to incorporate AI/GenAI capabilities into products, workflows, and internal engineering processes.
• Ensure applications follow appropriate practices for security, data privacy, authentication, authorization, logging, and monitoring.

Technical Skills & Requirements

Mandatory

• 6+ years of professional software development experience.
• Strong experience building and maintaining production-grade web applications.
• Strong proficiency in modern JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystems.
• Experience with frontend frameworks such as React.js, Next.js, Angular, Vue.js, or similar.
• Strong backend development experience using Node.js and/or other modern backend frameworks and languages.
• Strong understanding of REST APIs, microservices, API design, authentication, authorization, and third-party integrations.
• Experience with relational and/or NoSQL databases such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, etc.
• Good understanding of system design, distributed systems, scalability, caching, asynchronous processing, and performance optimization.
• Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.
• Familiarity with Docker, CI/CD pipelines, Git-based development workflows, monitoring, and modern DevOps practices.
• Strong understanding of application security and secure software development practices.

AI / GenAI Skills

The candidate should have a practical understanding of the modern AI ecosystem and its application in software products.

Experience or knowledge in the following areas will be an advantage:

• LLM-based applications and APIs
• OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or similar AI platforms
• AI agents and agentic workflows
• RAG and vector databases
• Prompt engineering and structured outputs
• AI-assisted development tools
• Integration of AI capabilities into existing web applications

• Reliability, security, privacy, cost, and hallucination considerations in production AI systems

Deep AI/ML research experience is not mandatory. The candidate should, however, be comfortable understanding and integrating modern AI capabilities into software products.

FinTech / BFSI Experience – Preferred

Prior experience working with FinTech, BFSI, lending, payments, banking, insurance, credit, or financial services products in India will be strongly preferred.

Experience in any of the following areas will be particularly valuable:

• Ability to make sound technical and architectural decisions.
• Strong ownership mindset with accountability for project delivery.
• Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with multiple projects and priorities.
• Ability to balance engineering quality with practical business and delivery requirements.
• Strong documentation and communication skills.
