The Full Stack Engineering Lead (C13) is a senior technical leadership role responsible for the architecture, design, and end-to-end development of critical, high-performance enterprise applications. This role requires an experienced engineering leader who can bridge the gap between modern, responsive front-end user interfaces and robust, scalable back-end distributed microservices. As a C13 Technical Lead, you will drive technical excellence across the full Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), mentor engineering teams, establish coding and architectural standards, and implement automated CI/CD deployment pipelines within a fast-paced, Agile delivery environment.
Key Responsibilities
1. Technical Leadership & Solution Architecture
• Architectural Strategy: Design resilient, scalable, and secure full-stack enterprise solutions aligning with up-to-date microservices architectures and cloud-native patterns.
• Technical Governance: Drive code quality, code reviews, design patterns, and engineering best practices across front-end and back-end workstreams.
• Framework Modernization: Evaluate emerging technologies, frameworks, and tools to modernize existing legacy systems and accelerate digital transformation. 2. Full Stack Application Engineering
• Front-End Development: Lead UI/UX implementation using modern web technologies (Angular 14+ / React 18+, TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3/SCSS, State Management like NgRx/Redux, Webpack/Vite).
• Back-End & Microservices: Develop high-throughput, low-latency RESTful APIs and distributed services using Core Java (Java 17/21), Spring Framework (Spring Boot, Spring Security, Spring Cloud, Spring Data JPA).
• Database Architecture: Design relational database schemas, write complex SQL queries, stored procedures, and packages (Oracle DB, PL/SQL), and perform database performance tuning, indexing, and query optimization. 3. CI/CD & DevOps Automation
• Pipeline Delivery: Design and implement robust automated Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines using tools such as Jenkins, Tekton, Harness, GitHub Actions, or GitLab CI.
• Containerization & Orchestration: Package and deploy applications using Docker and deploy to container platforms such as Red Hat OpenShift.
• Quality & Security Automation: Integrate static code analysis (SonarQube), open-source scanning, dynamic security testing, and automated artifact publishing (Artifactory / Nexus) directly into CI/CD gates. 4. Agile Delivery & Team Mentorship
• Agile Leadership: Collaborate closely with Product Owners, Business Analysts, Scrum Masters, and QA engineers to define technical user stories, estimate delivery velocity, and manage sprint backlogs.
• Team Development: Provide hands-on mentorship, technical guidance, and career coaching to mid-level and junior engineers.
• Production Support & Operational Resilience: Drive incident resolution, root cause analysis (RCA), observability (using tools like Splunk, Grafana, Prometheus, or Loki), and maintain high system uptime and disaster recovery readiness. Technical Skills & Competencies Front-End
• Strong expertise in Angular (v12+) or React.js (v16+)
• Advanced TypeScript, JavaScript (ES6+), HTML5, SCSS/CSS3
• State management libraries (NgRx, RxJS, Redux, Zustand)
• UI Component Libraries & Responsive Design (Material UI, Bootstrap, Tailwind CSS) Back-End
