About the Role

We are looking for a hands-on Tech Lead to join our Supply Chain & Services Portal program. This role blends strong backend and integration expertise with frontend oversight in React, plus architectural responsibilities.

This is not a paper architect role you ll be coding, guiding developers, reviewing designs, unblocking technical issues, and owning releases. You will work across Node.js/Java backend tracks, supply chain ERP integrations, and frontend alignment to deliver reliable, secure, and scalable solutions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Backend & Integrations
    • Lead backend and integration design using API-first principles and event-driven architecture.
    • Build and maintain production-grade services in Node.js/TypeScript (NestJS) and/or Java (Spring Boot, Microservices).
    • Define and enforce best practices around error handling, retries/DLQs, RBAC/ABAC, observability, performance, and security.
    • Architect and oversee AWS serverless solutions (Lambdas, Step Functions, SQS/SNS, API Gateway) and CI/CD pipelines.
    • Drive orchestration on platforms like Workato to replace point-to-point integrations, ensuring robust monitoring, error handling, and rollback strategies.
  • Supply Chain Focus
    • Bring strong understanding of ERP (SAP/Oracle) integrations and EDI flows (850/855/856/810, costing updates, etc.).
    • Support cutover planning, validations, and ensure data accuracy across supply chain transactions.
  • Frontend Oversight (React)
    • Provide guidance to frontend developers, ensuring proper use of React + TypeScript.
    • Oversee micro-frontend contracts, authentication flows, and integration with backend services.
    • Ensure resilience and alignment across frontend-backend boundaries.
  • Leadership & Collaboration
    • Partner with cross-functional teams (product, ERP, infra, frontend) to deliver end-to-end supply chain solutions.
    • Mentor developers, unblock technical challenges, and ensure on-time, high-quality releases.
    • Stay current with emerging backend, integration, and frontend practices, shaping technical strategy.

Required Qualifications

  • 12+ years of software development with strong backend expertise.
  • Proven experience as a Tech Lead, balancing hands-on coding with architectural leadership.
  • Expertise in Node.js (TypeScript) and/or Java (Spring Boot, Microservices).
  • Deep experience with API-first design, integrations, and event-driven systems.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS serverless services and modern CI/CD.
  • Strong understanding of ERP integrations (SAP/Oracle) and EDI flows.
  • Familiarity with frontend architecture in React/TypeScript (micro-frontends, auth, integration contracts).
  • Excellent communication and leadership skills for technical and business stakeholder engagement.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Prior experience in Supply Chain management, logistics, or service portals.
  • Exposure to Workato or similar integration/orchestration platforms.
  • Background in automotive, logistics, or manufacturing domains.
  • Knowledge of Kafka, schema registries, and idempotent pipelines.
  • Relevant certifications (AWS, Java, ERP, architecture).
