Job description

Key Responsibilities :

  • Define and execute the long-term backend / platform architecture strategy aligned with business roadmap (e-commerce, order management, delivery logistics, warehouse / inventory systems, etc.).
  • Architect large-scale, distributed, microservices-based backend systems (services for orders, inventory, delivery, user management, analytics, etc.) using Python and Django (or other Python frameworks where needed) — ensuring modularity, scalability and maintainability.
  • Build, scale and lead backend / platform engineering teams across different domains (e-commerce, delivery & logistics, data, integrations, platform services).
  • Mentor senior & mid-level and junior engineers;

foster a culture of ownership, accountability, code quality, continuous learning and best practices.

  • Define engineering processes, set team standards, ownership, workflows, and drive engineering excellence across the org.
  • Work closely with product, operations, supply-chain, logistics, warehouse, and business stakeholders to translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions.
  • Ensure backend systems meet business needs — order volume, throughput, delivery timelines, real-time data sync, inventory management, customer experience, performance under load.
  • Oversee releases, deployments, monitoring, incident management, post-deployment performance & reliability, and continuous improvement of services.
  • Define and track technical & business metrics (system availability, latency, error rates, throughput, resource usage, cost efficiency).
  • Manage platform roadmap, prioritize initiatives, balance new feature development vs maintenance / refactoring / tech-debt cleanup.
  • Budgeting and resource planning for infrastructure, tooling, cloud costs, team growth.
  • Ensure system architecture is scalable to support expansion — more cities, increased orders, more stores / franchise integration, last-mile & delivery logistics, real-time tracking etc.
  • Required Qualifications & Experience

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related technical discipline.
  • 10+ years of software engineering experience — with significant experience in backend development with Python / Django (or similar) and large-scale systems.
  • Deep technical expertise : Python, Django (or related frameworks), REST API design, microservices architecture, database design (SQL / NoSQL), data modeling, scalable system design.
  • Strong leadership, people management, mentoring, stakeholder communication & cross-functional collaboration skills.
  • Strategic mindset : ability to align engineering decisions with business goals, handle trade-offs (speed vs. quality vs. scale), plan long-term technical roadmap, manage technical debt.
