You will manage a growing team of engineers, oversee API development, coordinate infrastructure scaling on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and ensure cross-functional collaboration with Product, Finance, and Customer Success teams.
This role is vital as we consolidate our in-house backend, integrate core financial logic, and prepare for public launch and investor readiness.

Work with the compliance and legal team to integrate KYC, data privacy, and consent logic as part of system workflows.
Oversee real-time event triggers for features such as rent due reminders, WhatsApp notifications, and repayment alerts.

Cross-Functional Alignment

Collaborate with the finance team on implementing business rules around rent support disbursement, repayment logic, and edge-case financial scenarios.
Work closely with marketing and growth teams to ensure APIs and backend processes support user acquisition efforts and retail integration (e.g., Company supermarket logic).
Support QA engineers in improving system testing, performance benchmarks, and bug resolution cycles.

Experience working in cross-functional teams with product, marketing, finance, and operations.
