Responsibilities

As our Head of Engineering , you will be the #1 technical leader in the company — responsible for scaling our systems, our people, and our execution velocity. You’ll be expected to work hands-on in the early months to clean up fragmentation, standardize practices, and prepare our architecture for millions of users. Your responsibilities include :

Technical Direction & Execution

  • Own the technical roadmap and architectural standards across backend, frontend, and infra (Golang, Next.js, GCP).
  • Design and enforce standard service architecture, coding guidelines, and error-handling patterns across teams.
  • Build a shared framework / templates to enable plug-and-play feature development with minimal friction.
  • Drive test-first and modular design principles to contain bugs and improve developer confidence.
  • Lead scalability planning to prepare the system to serve 1 million+ check-ins in one hour by Dec 2026.
  • Engineering Excellence & Velocity

  • Improve development workflows (CI / CD, release cycles, code reviews) to reduce PR lead time and increase quality.
  • Own the establishment of testing culture : ensure all critical modules have high test coverage.
  • Introduce monitoring, metrics, and incident response best practices to reduce issue blast radius.
  • Product-Engineering Collaboration

  • Work closely with the Product team to align timelines, scope, and priorities.
  • Introduce structured scoping processes (e.g., tech effort estimation, tradeoff decisions) before product features are committed.
  • Push back smartly when Product requests create long-term risk, and propose better alternatives.
  • People & Team Building

  • Mentor and grow engineers of all levels — especially senior ICs and future tech leads.
  • Identify and promote key individuals into squad or tech lead roles to build a strong mid-layer.
  • Run regular tech syncs, code reviews, and post-mortems to maintain knowledge flow and high standards.
  • Org Design & Engineering Culture

  • Restructure the engineering team into clear squads with defined ownership if needed.
  • Build a healthy engineering culture : balance pragmatism with excellence, and autonomy with accountability.
  • Support engineering brand development (e.g., blog posts, public talks, open-source contributions).
  • Requirements

    Must-Have

  • 6+ years of backend engineering experience, 2+ years in technical leadership roles (Lead, Principal, or Head).
  • Strong hands-on experience building scalable systems using Golang and deploying in GCP or similar cloud platforms.
  • Proven track record of building systems with high modularity, observability, and performance under load.
  • Experience designing and enforcing engineering standards, frameworks, and scalable service templates.
  • Familiarity with testing disciplines (unit, integration, E2E) and setting up CI / CD pipelines.
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration experience with Product, QA, and SRE teams.
  • Clear, structured communicator — especially in messy, high-pressure environments.
  • Nice-to-Have

  • Experience in startups or high-growth environments where systems and teams scaled fast.
  • Exposure to Kubernetes, caching strategies, load testing frameworks, and observability stacks.
  • Ability to code-switch between strategy (roadmaps, hiring, culture) and tactics (code reviews, debugging).
  • Prior success mentoring junior engineers and building internal engineering training / onboarding material.
  • Seniority level
