Technical Lead

A self-funded, profitable SaaS company is seeking a senior engineer to serve as the CTO's technical right-hand.

We are growing steadily — without investors, without funding pressure, and without compromising engineering standards.

You will have a high-impact architectural role within a live production system serving thousands of users daily.

The Environment

• Mature Object-Oriented Java monolith (single-tier architecture)
• Modern services built with Spring / Spring Boot
• AWS-based production workloads
• Real revenue, real customers, real operational responsibility

The mission is not to rebuild from scratch.

The mission is to understand deeply, modernize wisely, and evolve sustainably.

What You Will Own

• Architectural decisions and long-term system evolution
• Refactoring and modernization of legacy Java components
• API design, scalability, performance optimization
• Production reliability and observability
• Engineering standards, code quality, and mentoring
• Direct partnership with the CTO on technical strategy

Required Experience:

• 6+ years building backend-heavy production systems
• Deep understanding of classic Object-Oriented Java (monolithic architectures)
• Strong hands-on Spring / Spring Boot experience
• Experience evolving legacy systems
• Proven ownership of production environments (performance tuning, debugging under load)
• Strong system design skills
• AWS experience

Important – Work Model

🕒 On-site, full presence (no hybrid)

Deep architectural work, legacy evolution, and a strong engineering culture require tight collaboration and fast feedback loops.

This role is best suited for engineers who value focus, ownership, and in-person collaboration with their team.

What will happen to know why you're joining us?

• Profitable and financially stable (bootstrapped since day one)
• Growing despite market volatility
• High autonomy and real architectural authority
• Direct impact on company-wide technical direction
• Long-term product vision without investor pressure

If you are a senior engineer who prefers substance over hype and wants to shape the technical backbone of a growing SaaS company, we should talk.
