Role Summary

The Technical Lead owns the tactical technical decisions for the team and is the hands-on anchor for architecture, code quality and delivery. This person sets the technical direction, unblocks the team, and ensures the product is built to scale across markets on a cloud-agnostic platform.

Key Responsibilities

  • Make day-to-day tactical technical decisions and drive architecture for the Virtual C-Suite product.
  • Lead design and hands-on development of scalable microservices in Java / Spring Boot and AI capabilities in Python.
  • Own engineering quality – design reviews, code reviews, coding standards, and technical debt management.
  • Guide integration of Azure AI Foundry / LLM models (Claude, GPT-4.1, Mistral) into product workflows.
  • Ensure robust CI/CD, observability and Kubernetes-based deployment across Azure (and emerging AWS) environments.
  • Mentor senior SDEs and QE, and collaborate with the TPM on roadmap, estimates and exit criteria.
  • Champion autonomy – enable the team to independently plan and deliver roadmap priorities.

Must-Have Skills

  • Strong hands-on Java / Spring Boot; solid Python for AI/LLM integration.
  • Cloud-native engineering on Azure (AWS a strong plus); Kubernetes and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Proven experience taking products from concept to production at scale.
  • Excellent technical judgement, communication and mentoring ability.

Nice to Have

  • Experience building agentic / GenAI applications and RAG pipelines.
  • Databricks and data-platform experience; fintech / payments domain exposure.
  • Comfortable operating in a fully autonomous team that owns delivery end-to-end.
  • Strong fundamentals in the relevant discipline and a good culture fit – collaborative, ownership-driven and outcome-focused.
  • Able to work in a cloud-agnostic environment (Azure today, expanding to AWS).
  • Hybrid working – 3 days per week from the Mexico City office, with emphasis on in-person collaboration during the early build phase.
  • Clear communication and the ability to move fast without compromising engineering quality.
