Guide engineers through constructive feedback. - Mentorship: Coach and support engineers through regular feedback, pair programming, and technical guidance, including effective use of AI tools. - Issue Resolution: Debug and resolve production issues, coordinate incident response, and ensure root-cause analysis and prevention. - Planning & Delivery: Plan and prioritize development work, balance workloads, and manage release deliverables. - Cross-Team Collaboration: Work closely with Product, Design, and Business teams to align on requirements, timelines, and technical feasibility. - CI/CD & DevOps: Maintain reliable build and deployment pipelines, monitor system health, and enforce security and automation standards. - Process Improvement: Identify bottlenecks, propose tooling or workflow improvements, and drive overall engineering efficiency. Skills (we are looking for someone with): - Expert in TypeScript, Node.js, React, and Next.js, with strong experience building full-stack web applications and reusable components. - Strong grasp of software architecture and design patterns (microservices, event-driven systems, domain-driven design, API design), with experience designing high-load distributed systems that stay scalable and maintainable. - Hands-on experience using AI coding tools in production work (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot): generating, reviewing, and correcting AI-written code, and helping others do the same. Familiarity with RAG, MCP, and evals is a plus. - Skilled in designing and maintaining microservices and GraphQL APIs for scalable, distributed architectures. - Proficient with SQL databases and modern NoSQL solutions such as MongoDB and Redis, including schema design, query optimization, and caching strategies. - Hands-on experience with Docker and Kubernetes, including container orchestration, automated deployments, and system monitoring, plus working knowledge of AWS and cloud-native infrastructure. - Proficient with GitHub Actions or similar CI/CD pipelines for continuous testing, building, and deployment. - Strong understanding of web security standards, authentication flows, data protection, and secure coding practices. - Familiar with SEO optimization, web performance metrics, and best practices for improving visibility and user experience. - Committed to clean code, testing, observability, and production-grade reliability. - Skilled in leading cross-functional teams, conducting code reviews, mentoring engineers, and aligning technical work with business objectives. - Good to have: familiarity with Java/Kotlin/C#, message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ), and scalable caching or storage solutions. - 10+ years in software engineering, delivering secure, scalable, and high-performance applications. - Excellent business mindset and execution skills, with strong presentation and communication skills in English. #MoneyHeroGroup #LI-SK1 #LI-Hybrid What can you expect from us?
