As a Technical Lead, you'll not just write code; you'll design scalable architectures, coach engineers, and lead technology-first projects. You'll drive backend systems that support 100M+ DAUs, optimize APIs to sub-50ms latencies, and be a champion of engineering excellence. We expect you to actively use AI tools to accelerate architecture design, code reviews, prototyping, and developer productivity.

Requirements :

- 5+ years of hands-on backend engineering experience with Java, Spring Boot, and AWS.

- Proven ownership of high-scale distributed systems.

- Deep knowledge of microservices, messaging systems, caching, storage optimization, and cloud scalability.

- Clear architectural thinking; you can design systems for billions of transactions, not just millions.

- An AI-first mindset : You should know how to augment yourself with GPT and other AI coding tools to move 2x faster.

- Strong leadership skills: mentoring, code reviewing, and pushing for engineering best practices.

Ideal Profile :

- Obsessed with system scale, performance, and reliability.

- Already using or excited to use AI tools (GPT, Copilot, etc.) for development.

- Loves deep backend engineering and believes technology should move fast, with high impact.

- Wants to grow into a principal engineer, architect, or CTO over time.

- Preferred Qualifications : Bachelor's/Master's Degree in Computer Science or equivalent (only from Tier 1/2 colleges).
