Engineering Team Lead (Python + Typescript) — Bengaluru

Experience: 5–7 years | Joining: Immediate

About the Role:

Lead a small engineering team building high-volume, data-intensive systems that transform complex enterprise data into accurate, machine-readable outputs. You’ll work closely with the founder on architecture and own system reliability, scalability, and correctness.

What Makes This Role Different:

This is not a pure people-management role. You’ll remain deeply hands-on with architecture, production systems, and technical decisions. You’ll also be expected to operate effectively in ambiguity and challenge existing architectural decisions when needed.

What You’ll Own:
Drive architecture across TypeScript/NestJS workflows and Python data/AI services
Build reliable long-running workflows with durable execution, retries, and idempotency
Design scalable data processing using Polars, DuckDB, Parquet, and streaming
Build evaluation and regression frameworks to measure AI/system accuracy
Own production systems running in customer cloud environments
Lead hiring, code reviews, technical decisions, and mentor engineers
Maintain clean boundaries between workflow orchestration,



AI/agent execution, and bulk data processing

What We’re Looking For:
5–7 years building backend, distributed, or data-intensive systems
Solid expertise in Python or TypeScript, with working proficiency in the other
Experience taking systems from design → production → ongoing ownership
Strong understanding of distributed systems, retries, idempotency, failures, and long-running workflows
Hands-on experience with high-volume data processing
Engineering leadership experience — mentoring, reviewing, and raising technical standards
Robust focus on correctness, observability, and production reliability

Strong Plus:
Temporal or similar workflow orchestration platforms
LLM/AI systems with measurable evaluation
Polars, DuckDB, Arrow, Parquet
Azure and enterprise cloud settings
LangGraph / agentic workflows
Docker, Terraform/Bicep, OpenTelemetry

Tech Stack:

Python · TypeScript · NestJS · Temporal · LangGraph · Polars · DuckDB · Parquet · Pydantic · PostgreSQL · Redis · Azure · Docker · Terraform/Bicep · React
