01Responsibilities
Define and execute a long-term technical roadmap that aligns with business goals.
Move the team from "reactive maintenance" to "proactive innovation."
Own the SDLC. Move beyond basic Agile/Scrum participation to designing the
process. Identify bottlenecks in the CI/CD pipeline, QA handoffs, or requirements
gathering and fix them.
Define, track, and report on engineering KPIs (e.g., Sprint Velocity, Cycle Time,
Defect Removal Efficiency, Code Coverage). Use these metrics to predict delivery
timelines and identify training needs.
Handle capacity planning, hiring, and performance appraisals. Ensure the right
people are working on the right tasks.
You will not review every line of code, but you will set the Standard Operating
Procedures (SOPs) for code quality. You will approve high-level architectural
designs and technology choices.
Anticipate technical debt and scalability issues. Create strategies to modernize
legacy systems (specifically in Java/MSSQL environments) without disrupting
business operations.
Serve as the final escalation point for technical roadblocks. When the team is stuck,
you provide the decision-making framework to move forward.
Mentor Team Leads and Senior Developers to become future managers or
architects.
Translate "what we are building" into "why we are building it," ensuring every
developer understands the long-term impact of their work on the garment
manufacturing industry.
Qualifications:
8 to 12 years of total software industry experience, with at least 2+
years dedicated to leadership or management roles.
Proven experience managing teams of 10+ developers and QA engineers. You
must have a track record of creating and sustaining high-performing
engineering teams.
A background as a developer is essential for context, but your core expertise should
be in unlocking team potential and ensuring consistent delivery, rather than
writing code.
Deep conceptual understanding of Java, Angular, and Database
(SQL) architectures. You should be able to look at a proposed solution and
immediately identify scalability risks or security flaws.
Strong experience with project management tools (Jira), version control (Git), and
CI/CD pipelines.
Ability to discuss technical debt with engineers and ROI with business stakeholders
in the same hour.
Excellent communication skills to articulate technical vision to non-technical
stakeholders.
Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field. .
