Architectural Stewardship: Work closely with Technical Architects to ensure the long-term health of our AWS-based ecosystem, making pragmatic decisions that balance speed-to-market with technical excellence.
Engineering Culture: Set the "gold standard" for engineering routines. From robust CI/CD pipelines to insightful code reviews, you will drive a culture of technical pride.
Team Leadership & Enablement
Distributed Team Growth: Act as the bridge between our London-based stakeholders and our Nearshore development teams. You will be responsible for creating a "one-team" environment, ensuring high code quality and consistency across geographical boundaries.
Mentorship: Support the growth of ANDis and client developers alike, fostering a high-achieving environment through coaching and peer reviews.
Stakeholder Management
Collaborative Influence: Navigate a multi-faceted stakeholder landscape. You’ll be equally comfortable discussing API design with engineers as you are discussing roadmap priorities and business value with Product Owners and Senior Executives.
Requirements
Full-Stack Mastery: Extensive professional experience with Java (Spring Boot) and React. You should have a deep understanding of modern frontend patterns and backend microservices.
Cloud Expertise: Solid experience building and deploying on AWS, including serverless components and data pipelines.
