Job Description
 
Role Overview
We are seeking a hands-on Tech Lead to act as the technical authority for one or more strategic initiatives. The Tech Lead will define architecture, service contracts, and technical roadmaps while providing strong engineering leadership.
 
This role is heavily backend-focused (~60–70%) primarily using Node.js and TypeScript, balanced with occasional frontend work (~30–40%) using React and TypeScript. The short-term emphasis is technical discovery, solution design, and laying the foundation for downstream delivery and team scaling.
 
Key Responsibilities
 
Technical Leadership & Architecture
 
  - Serve as the lead developer and technical authority for the initiative(s).
  - Design resilient, cloud-native system architectures and define technical roadmaps.
  - Decompose ambiguous problem spaces into clear, actionable technical plans.
  - Define, document, and negotiate service and API contracts with partner teams.
  - Ensure solutions meet enterprise standards for security, resiliency, and maintainability.
  - Identify technical dependencies, risks, sequencing, and trade-offs across backend and cloud systems.
  - Promote a "Security First" mindset across all development.
 
Hands-On Engineering
 
  - Maintain a heavily hands-on focus in backend development (~60–70%) while supporting UI development as needed.
  - Architect and build services using TypeScript and Node.js (with potential to support Java applications).
  - Review code and enforce engineering best practices across frontend and backend repositories.
  - Support complex technical problem-solving across the stack.
 
Collaboration, Planning & Delivery
 
  - Work closely with product teams and stakeholders to shape scope and priorities.
  - Help determine initiative sequencing based on technical readiness and risk.
  - Inform decisions on future team composition and skill set requirements within a flexible staffing model.
 
Core Technical Skills
 
Required:
 
  - TypeScript: Expert-level proficiency across the software stack.
  - Backend Architecture: Deep experience building APIs/services using TypeScript and Node.js.
  - Frontend Development: Working experience with React for UI enhancements and integration.
  - Cloud Infrastructure (AWS): Hands-on experience with Lambda, ECS, and S3.
  - Databases: Practical experience with DynamoDB.
  - Auth: Solid understanding of common authentication patterns (JWTs, OAuth).
 
Preferred / Nice-to-Have:
 
  - Support-level proficiency with Java and/or Angular.
  - Experience with GraphQL, cross-language migrations (e.g., Java to TypeScript/Node.js), and additional NoSQL/SQL databases.
  - Experience with Kong, Lambda Authorizers, Glue, Security/Monitoring tools, and GitHub Actions.
 
Ideal Candidate Profile
 
  - Strong technical depth with a solution-oriented, modern software architecture mindset.
  - Proven experience providing technical leadership while remaining actively hands-on.
  - Strong background in resilient system, cloud-native, and API-first design.
  - Comfortable operating in environments with high ambiguity and evolving requirements.
