Job Description

Technical Lead (Product Engineering)

Band: MM1-SM1

EXPERIENCE: 15+ Yrs

About the Role

We are looking for a seasoned Technical Lead with 15+ years of experience in building, scaling, and leading technology solutions for product-based organizations. This is a hands-on technical leadership role you will be responsible for defining architecture, driving scalability, and guiding engineering excellence across the product lifecycle. Unlike an Engineering Manager, this role emphasizes technical depth over people management. You will collaborate with product managers and stakeholders on strategy but stay deeply involved in coding standards, design reviews, and solving complex technical challenges.

Key Responsibilities

Technical Strategy & Ownership

Define and own the technical architecture for scalable, secure, and high-performing products.
Drive long-term technical vision and ensure alignment with product and business goals.
Evaluate and adopt emerging technologies, frameworks, and best practices.
Ensure sustainable engineering practices and manage technical debt proactively.

Product Engineering Leadership

Lead the technical design and end-to-end development of critical product features.
Ensure architecture supports multi-tenancy, high availability, and global adoption.
Drive modernization initiatives: microservices, APIs, cloud-native, and DevOps-first practices.
Collaborate with Product Management to shape backlog priorities and release readiness.

Team Leadership & Mentorship

Mentor senior & junior engineers and act as the go-to technical authority for the team.
Conduct code reviews, design sessions, and technical workshops.
Foster a culture of innovation, continuous learning, and technical excellence.

Operational Excellence

Implement engineering best practices: CI/CD pipelines, automation, observability.
Embed SRE practices to improve system resilience and performance.
Ensure compliance with security, governance, and data privacy standards.

Required Skills & Qualifications

15+ years of experience in software engineering, with at least 5+ years leading technical teams in product companies.
Proven expertise in designing and scaling cloud-native, distributed architectures.
Hands-on proficiency in Laravel, Python, .NET, Flutter and JS based frameworks such as NodeJS, VueJS/ReactJS/NextJS/Nuxt
Strong knowledge of AWS, Azure, or GCP, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and microservices.
Experience building SaaS platforms/products with global scale and adoption.
Strong grasp of system design principles (event-driven, API-first, DDD).
Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills.
