Role Summary
As a Tech Lead, you will own the technical direction and architecture of our platforms, operating with a \"You Build It, You Run It\" philosophy. This role is designed for a software architect who views DevOps, scalability, and delivery excellence as inseparable from high-quality code. You will partner with Product and Engineering teams to build resilient, cloud-native systems that empower our global mission.
Beyond internal development, you will serve as a Technical Consultant for our clients, translating complex business problems into pragmatic, scalable solutions built on our platform. This is a high-impact, hands-on leadership role that blends deep engineering, infrastructure ownership, and strategic client collaboration.
Responsibilities
* Architectural Ownership: Lead the design of scalable, distributed systems and define the future of our cloud-native architectures.
* High-Performance Engineering: Build, review, and maintain mission-critical production systems primarily in Go.
* CI/CD: Help evolve DevOps practices, including CI/CD, Kubernetes, and infrastructure automation.
* Operational Excellence: Set the standard for reliability, security, and observability; we don't just ship features, we ensure they perform at scale.
* Pragmatic Strategy: Manage technical debt and make high-stakes architectural trade-offs that align with business growth.
* Client Solution Design: Act as a bridge between the platform and the customer, designing Proofs-of-Concept (PoCs) and supporting complex integrations.

* Distributed Systems Background: A strong grounding in microservices, asynchronous messaging, and data consistency.
* Obsessively Observant: Proven experience with CI/CD automation and observability stacks (e.g., New Relic, Prometheus, or ELK).
* Client‐Facing Presence: The ability to command a room (or a Zoom call) to explain complex technical roadmaps to non‐technical stakeholders.
