About the Role

We are looking for a Java Engineering Lead with 12+ years of experience to lead and drive the design, development, and delivery of enterprise-grade Java applications and microservices. You will combine deep technical expertise with strong leadership capabilities — guiding a team of engineers, setting technical direction, and delivering high-quality, scalable, and secure solutions in a fast-paced Agile workplace. This is a senior hands-on leadership role — requiring you to be equally effective writing production code as you are driving architecture decisions and mentoring engineers.

Key Responsibilities

Technical Leadership
- Lead and mentor a team of Java engineers — providing technical direction, code reviews, architectural guidance, and career development support.




- Set and enforce engineering standards — coding guidelines, design patterns, testing practices, and security standards across the Java development team.
- Drive technical decision-making — evaluating technology choices, architecture trade-offs, and implementation approaches with authority and pragmatism.
- Lead technical design sessions — producing architecture decision records, solution designs, and technical specifications for complex Java engineering initiatives.
- Champion engineering best practices — clean code, TDD, CI/CD, shift-left testing, and DevOps culture across the team.
- Collaborate with Solution Architects and Product Owners — translating business requirements into well-architected, deliverable technical solutions.
- Contribute to recruitment and capability building — supporting technical interviews, onboarding, and skills development across the engineering team.

Hands-on Java Development
- Design, develop, and maintain
