Senior Forward Deployed Engineer (ReactAngular + Python + SQL)

Own client workstreams from discovery through delivery. Youll translate ambiguous goals into buildable plans ship thin-slice outcomes rapidly and harden them into production-ready solutions with quality security and observability. Youll set patterns others can follow and actively use AI-assisted engineering safely (catching hallucinations strengthening tests and accelerating migrations/refactors).

Responsibilities

• Lead discovery-to-delivery cycles: scope milestones acceptance criteria and risk management.
• Design and implement scalable UI architecture (React/Angular) and reliable Python services/APIs.
• Drive SQL performance work: window functions/CTEs indexing strategy query plan analysis correctness guarantees.
• Establish team patterns: review checklists testing standards definition of done and reusable components.
• Lead delivery hardening: CI/CD reliability build/test automation environment parity and container-first local dev patterns.
• Improve observability: logs/metrics/traces and production debugging playbooks.
• Coach engineers on SOLID/MVC boundaries DRY/KISS tradeoffs and safe refactors.
• Lead AI-first workflows: spec context packages prompt patterns verification gates and regression tests.

Qualifications :

Required qualifications
