- Ensure seamless integration of AI capabilities with core web products.
- Act as a full-stack authority, driving best practices across a multi-tier environment spanning JavaScript, Node.js, Python, and MySQL.
- Own the technical roadmap and architecture for at least two major professional-grade products, ensuring high availability, security, and performance on AWS.
- Oversee the development of robust, secure REST APIs and integration with advanced visualization libraries and database technologies.
- Lead complex engineering projects from initial conception through to successful deployment and continuous iteration.
- Accurately estimate timelines for complex engineering initiatives, manage stakeholder expectations, and maintain strict accountability for deadlines.
- Implement and refine engineering processes to maximize team velocity without compromising code quality or architectural integrity.
- Champion a culture of creative engineering, design thinking, and high technical standards.
- Lead by example with strong personal values, transparency, and a collaborative mindset.
- Leverage your reputation within the broader technology community to mentor internal talent and attract top-tier engineering professionals.
Required Profile & Skills:
- 10 - 15 years of progressive experience in software engineering, with a mandatory, heavy focus on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.

- A proven track record of 10+ years successfully building, deploying, and running complex, large-scale web or data products.
- Demonstrated experience having built at least two professional-grade products as the primary technical owner or chief architect.
- Deep understanding of Machine Learning workflows, production algorithms, and deployment pipelines.
- Advanced proficiency in Python, Node.js, and MySQL.
- Strong architectural grip on database tech and visualization libraries.
- High proficiency in JavaScript and modern web ecosystems in a multi-tier infrastructure.
- Expert-level familiarity with AWS services and cloud-native application patterns.
- Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science, IT, or a related field (B.E / B.Tech / M.Tech / M.S) from premier institutes.
- A strong background in competitive programming (e.g., successes in hackathons, ACM-ICPC, Codeforces, LeetCode) is highly preferred.
- An established, respected reputation within the local or global technology community
