Role overview

You own technical delivery end-to-end. You lead the three developers and co-write the Go backend with the Senior Go Engineer.

This is a hands-on leadership role, not a pure management seat.

• Architecture and standards: the modular-monolith design, the adapter pattern, the outbox and reconciliation model.
• Every PR: code review, technical risk, and delivery quality.
• AWS infrastructure: ECS Fargate, RDS, ElastiCache, ALB — provisioned with Terraform.
• Security and compliance posture: PCI DSS controls, PII encryption, key management, audit logging.
• The team: sprint planning, mentoring, performance, and stakeholder expectations.
