Job Overview

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

  • 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.
