- Excellent knowledge of service architecture, PostgreSQL, and Redis
- Experience building CI/CD pipelines and reliable release processes
- Confident work with Docker in local development and on production servers
Leadership and Scaling
- Ability to switch between product tasks, architecture, and development processes
- Experience in hiring, training, and improving engineering culture within a team
- Strong system design skills and a focus on pragmatic solutions
- Willingness to closely collaborate with founders, product, and design teams
- English language proficiency at B1+ level for professional communication
What you'll be doing
Technical Direction
- Define the company's technical vision: web, backend, infrastructure, and internal tools
- Develop the technology stack: Nuxt 3, Vue 3, Python, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, and CI/CD
- Translate product requirements into a development plan with clear stages and priorities
- Set standards for architecture, code quality, testing, monitoring, and incident management
- Write code and participate in development where architect-level expertise is required
Team and Delivery
- Build a culture of fast and reliable development without sacrificing quality
