AWSCloudKubernetesPythonReact
About the role
- Drive technical leadership and delivery with expertise in Amazon SageMaker, Kubernetes/EKS, and generative AI frameworks including AWS Bedrock agents and LangGraph.
- Run day-to-day technical leadership for the offshore squad: plan sprints, refine user stories, track sprint metrics, and remove blockers quickly.
- Provide hands-on guidance in a modern React/AWS/LLM stack; review PRs, set coding standards, and coach engineers toward independent problem-solving.
- Engineer/build React and Python rapid prototypes or production-ready code for high complexity, high visibility requirements.
- Enforce architectural patterns and cloud guardrails; prefer fully managed services over bespoke builds.
- Ensure all solutions and processes are documented and manage document lifecycle.
- Maintain a tight feedback loop with product and architecture leads; surface risks early and convert business context into clear technical direction.
- Coordinate delivery of project milestones across offshore and US teams to ensure one accountable delivery stream.
- Drive agile and support processes across time zones: daily standups, office hours for rapid Q&A, and a clear escalation path.
- Track delivery health in Jira (throughput, blockers, rework) and report concise status to stakeholders.
- Deliver on 90-day success metrics: reduce blocker time, implement PR review checklist, improve velocity, log architecture decisions, and increase offshore self-sufficiency.
Requirements
- 7+ years in modern full-stack engineering with 5+ years deep in React. Experience mentoring React developers and setting technical standards.
- 2+ years in LLM application development and modern LLM-enabled coding practices.
- Expertise with Amazon SageMaker, Kubernetes/EKS, and familiarity with AWS Bedrock agents and LangGraph.
- Solid grasp of frontend architecture (state management, performance, testing, accessibility) and integration with APIs/backends.
- Cloud delivery experience (preferably AWS) with a bias toward managed services and cost/operational efficiency.
- Proven leadership of offshore teams and multi-vendor delivery; effective communication and expectation-setting across time zones.
- Strong Agile practice: story slicing, definition of ready/done, metrics in Jira, and pragmatic ceremony management.
- High degree of familiarity with software engineering methodologies, source code control, project management, and issue tracking best practices.
