Product Technical Lead
We’re looking for a Product Technical Lead to take ownership of our established AI enabled software product CyINTer, guiding it through its next phase of evolution - roadmap features, scalability, and user experience as it grows in reach and capability. At the same time, you’ll play a key role in shaping and building new product ideas from the ground up, helping Daintta expand its digital product portfolio.
This is a hands-on leadership role that blends strategic technical direction with active development. You’ll work closely with product and business teams to define roadmaps, make architectural decisions, and deliver high-quality, production-ready software that meets real-world needs. If you enjoy balancing long-term vision with practical delivery, refining proven systems while exploring new opportunities, this role offers both.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the technical design, architecture, and implementation of a complex, user-facing software product.
- Write high-quality backend code in Python, taking features from definition through to release.
- Work closely with the Product Manager to translate product goals into technical plans, milestones, and deliverables.
- Make key architectural and implementation decisions to ensure scalability, performance, and maintainability.
- Guide the development team through Agile delivery cycles, leading sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives.
- Establish and uphold engineering best practices, code quality, testing, documentation, and security.
- Conduct code reviews and mentor developers, supporting their technical growth and productivity.
- Collaborate with UX/UI designers to ensure technical feasibility and excellent user experience.
- Continuously improve the development process and infrastructure to enhance product velocity and quality.
