• Technical Mentorship: Guide and coach engineering teams through code reviews, design discussions, and knowledge sharing sessions. Foster a culture of excellence and continuous improvement.
• Product Collaboration: Partner closely with Product Owners to translate business requirements into technical specifications, estimate effort, and assess risk. Influence the product roadmap with a focus on long‑term technical health.
• Innovation & Debt Management: Identify technical debt hotspots, propose refactoring initiatives, and implement cutting‑edge solutions that enhance developer productivity and system reliability.

Key qualifications include:

• 3–5 years of senior or principal engineering experience, with a proven track record in system design and architecture.
• Deep expertise in cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and experience with containerization, orchestration, and serverless patterns.
• Strong command of code review practices, automated testing frameworks, and CI/CD tooling.
• Excellent communication skills in both English and French, capable of articulating complex technical concepts to non‑technical stakeholders.
• Experience in FinTech or related domains, with familiarity in microservices, event‑driven architectures, and data‑centric design.
