What You’ll Be Working On

• You’ll own the company’s full technical direction: architecture, reliability, delivery, infrastructure, and the people who make it happen.
• Define and drive architectural strategy, introducing clear engineering governance — RFCs, tech radar, vendor evaluation, and practical risk management — without unnecessary bureaucracy.
• Lead the evolution of a high-load, event-driven platform with a focus on scalability, resilience, and fault isolation.
• Own reliability and incident management: observability, SRE practices, incident response, and postmortem culture — with a goal of better uptime, faster detection, and fewer repeated issues.
• Oversee engineering hiring, performance, and development of tech leads; build a culture of end-to-end ownership and accountability.
• Manage cybersecurity protocols, disaster recovery, and business continuity in collaboration with DevOps.
• Drive infrastructure efficiency, cost control, and continuous performance improvement through centralized observability and clear ownership.
• Act as a bridge between engineering teams and executive stakeholders, ensuring technical decisions align with business goals.
• Champion automation, AI integration, and engineering process optimization.
• Design APIs and integration strategies; establish coding, architectural, and infrastructure standards.

What You Need to Succeed

• Proven experience as a CTO, Head of Engineering, or Principal Architect in a high-load SaaS, fintech, or infrastructure company.
• Deep expertise in distributed systems, event-driven architectures, and microservices — including how they behave at scale in production.
• Strong hands-on development background, especially in Go and Python
• Track record of improving reliability, delivery speed, and infrastructure efficiency (uptime, MTTR, MTTD, release cadence, cloud cost).
• Solid understanding of DevOps, CI/CD, SRE, and incident management at scale.
• Comprehensive technical background across architecture, cloud platforms, security, and distributed systems, with a focus on scalability, reliability, and strategic technology leadership.
• Familiar with PCI DSS compliance and secure system design.
• Skilled at hiring and mentoring strong engineers and tech leads.
• Comfortable with vendor evaluation, negotiation, and tooling decisions.
• You understand how engineering decisions affect revenue, risk, and customer trust.
• English language skills at the B2 level and fluent russian language.
