Lead Backend Engineer & Team Lead

Role Summary:

We are seeking a visionary and hands-on Technical Team Lead to architect and build a highly scalable, multi-vertical marketplace platform. While the initial launch will focus on the Healthcare & Medical sector, the roadmap includes rapid expansion into other service industries. You will be responsible for designing a flexible and modular architecture that can support new business verticals without refactoring the core system. You will also lead the engineering team (Frontend & Mobile) to deliver a world-class product.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Architecture for Scale & Expansion:

• Design a Modular & Extensible Architecture capable of supporting multiple business verticals (e.g., Medical, Beauty, Lifestyle) on a single core platform.
• Ensure the database design is abstract enough to handle different types of service providers and booking workflows.
• Lead the decision-making process for a "future-proof" tech stack.

2. Team Leadership & Management:

• Lead the cross-functional team (Backend, Frontend, Mobile), ensuring alignment between technical execution and the long-term product vision.
• Translate business goals into technical roadmaps, breaking down complex requirements into manageable sprints.
• Conduct code reviews with a focus on reusability and clean architecture.

3. Core Backend Development:

• Develop secure, high-performance RESTful APIs and Microservices.
• Implement robust identity management (SSO, OAuth 2.0) that works across different user roles.
• Manage cloud infrastructure (Azure/OCI) with a focus on auto-scaling and cost-efficiency.
• Integrate flexible payment gateways and notification systems applicable to various industries.

Required Skills & Qualifications:

1. Technical Skills:

• Backend Mastery: Strong proficiency in .NET Core and Node.js.
• Architectural Patterns: Deep understanding of Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and Modular Monolith/Microservices architecture.
• Database Design: Ability to design abstract data models (SQL/NoSQL) that serve multiple use cases.
• Cloud & DevOps: Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Full-Stack Awareness: Understanding of Frontend and Mobile constraints to guide the wider team.

2. Mindset & Soft Skills:

• Product-Oriented: Ability to think beyond the code and understand the "Super-App" or "Multi-Service" business model.
• Agile Leadership: Experience leading teams in a fast-paced, evolving startup environment.
• Strong communication skills to articulate architectural trade-offs to stakeholders.

3. Experience:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field.
• 5+ years of backend development experience.
• 2+ years in a Team Lead role, preferably working on SaaS platforms or Marketplaces.
