Overview of the Role
As the Principal Engineer for our Campaign Platform, you will act as the technical authority driving architectural excellence, scalability, and operational reliability across our distributed systems and services. You`ll lead backend technical direction and collaborate closely with Team Lead, Software Engineers, Solution Architects, and QA to ensure our systems are secure, efficient, and resilient at scale.
What you`ll do:
Technical Leadership & Architecture
** Architect and Evolve Systems: Own the backend architecture vision across multiple services and domains. Design systems optimized for performance, observability, and scalability, ensuring they meet multi-market and multi-product requirements.
** Technical Direction: Guide the evolution of our microservice and monolithic components, ensuring maintainability, performance, and clear service boundaries.
** Problem Solving: Lead complex technical investigations, propose long-term solutions, and ensure alignment with architectural principles defined at the Tribe/Engineering level.
** Code Quality & Standards: Define backend coding standards and enforce best practices in Node.js (NestJS) and related backend frameworks. Promote reliability through code reviews, automation, and CI/CD pipelines.
Collaboration & Delivery
** Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Product Owners, QA, DevOps, and other teams to define interfaces, data flows, and integration strategies that ensure seamless delivery.
** Release Management: Support release activities by ensuring production readiness, performance validation, and rollback strategies are in place.
** System Governance: Represent backend engineering decisions and dependencies in cross-tribe and company-wide architecture discussions.
Mentorship & Knowledge Sharing
** Engineer Development: Mentor backend developers, fostering technical excellence, ownership, and growth across the team.
** Best Practices: Champion backend engineering best practices in API design, data modeling, observability, and scalability.
** Innovation: Encourage experimentation with new backend technologies, patterns, and cloud-native solutions that improve delivery and reliability.
Quality, Reliability & Automation
** Test Strategy Collaboration: Work closely with QA and DevOps to ensure strong test automation coverage across unit, integration, and load testing layers.
** Operational Excellence: Partner with SREs to ensure robust monitoring, alerting, and incident management processes are in place.
** Quality Mindset: Promote a "build it right" culture—prioritizing security, performance, and long-term maintainability over short-term fixes.
Core Technologies
** Node.js (NestJS) and TypeScript-based backend development
** RESTful APIs and microservices
** Message queues (Kafka)
** PostgreSQL, Redis, and other persistence layers
** CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and cloud platforms
What you`ll Bring:
** 5-8+ years of experience in backend software engineering, with strong expertise in Node.js (preferably NestJS) and related backend frameworks.
** Proven track record in system architecture and design, including both microservice and monolithic systems.
** Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, code quality enforcement, and automated testing (unit, integration, load).
** Experience leading technical investigations and solving complex scalability or performance issues.
** Strong understanding of API design, data modeling, and system observability (logs, metrics, monitoring).
** Previous involvement in multi-product or multi-market environments — ideally in fintech, e-commerce, or large-scale digital platforms.
** Knowledge of DevOps principles, cloud-native architectures (AWS, GCP, or Azure), and collaboration with QA and SRE teams.
** Experience in release management and ensuring production readiness.
** Background in mentoring developers, guiding best practices, and driving technical excellence within teams.
** Involvement in cross-functional collaboration — working closely with Product Owners, QA, DevOps, and other engineering teams.
