Full Job Description
đź“‹ Description
- • Lead the technical direction of your engineering team as an individual contributor, without direct reports, by defining architecture standards, API contracts, and event-driven system designs using Kafka.
- • Design, build, and scale high-reliability, high-performance services in Ruby on Rails and Node.js, ensuring maintainability and long-term scalability in production environments.
- • Act as a core member of the company’s technical architecture team, contributing to cross-team decisions on domain boundaries, integration standards, observability, and system resilience.
- • Author and review technical RFCs and design proposals, clearly communicating complex technical trade-offs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders in Spanish and English.
- • Resolve the most complex production issues, including debugging distributed systems, managing incident response, and implementing fixes for partial failures, consistency challenges, and capacity bottlenecks.
- • Conduct rigorous yet constructive code reviews and design reviews to elevate the technical quality and maturity of the entire engineering team.
- • Mentor engineers at all levels to grow their technical skills, foster autonomy, and cultivate the next generation of technical leaders within the organization.
- • Collaborate with Product and the Engineering Manager to translate business objectives into executable technical plans, with the discipline to say no to technically sound but misaligned initiatives.
- • Enforce quality standards across testing, CI/CD pipelines, security practices, and AI-assisted development workflows, ensuring rigorous validation of AI-generated code.
- • Operate and optimize microservices deployed on Kubernetes within GCP, AWS, or Azure, with deep understanding of observability tools including tracing, structured logging, and metrics.
- • Make informed frontend architecture decisions by applying solid knowledge of modern React/Next.js to ensure seamless integration between frontend and backend systems.

- • Communicate complex technical concepts clearly and effectively in both written and verbal form across languages and disciplines.
- • Contribute to the evolution of legacy systems by designing and executing strategies for decomposition, migration, and modernization toward scalable microservices.
- • Ensure all systems adhere to industry best practices for idempotency, fault tolerance, and scalability under real-world production loads.
