Original job description

Key Accountabilities

Job Title	Important Tasks / Activities / Outcomes
Technical Leadership & Architecture	· Design and document the system architecture for assigned products, recording key decisions and trade-offs. · Plan and lead staged rebuilds of existing products so current clients see no disruption or data loss. · Select tools, frameworks and patterns that balance delivery speed, cost and long-term maintainability. · Work with the lead developer to shape the technical roadmap and identify technical debt worth paying down. · Translate business requirements into technical designs, estimates and clear stories with acceptance criteria.

Security, Reliability & Observability	· Apply secure development practices across products, including threat modelling and secrets management. · Design and maintain authentication and access control so each client’s data stays separate. · Ensure every service has logging, monitoring, alerting and backups, with tested recovery procedures. · Maintain CI/CD pipelines and Azure cloud infrastructure, keeping hosting costs under control. · Lead the response to production incidents, identify root causes and put preventive fixes in place.
Team Standards & Mentorship	· Create SOPs to maintain coding standards, review guidelines and best practices. · Conduct thorough code reviews that raise the quality of the team’s code, including AI-assisted code. · Mentor junior developers through pairing, feedback and progressively larger assignments, and track their growth.
