- Full SDLC Ownership: Lead the entire lifecycle of digital banking products—from initial idea and architectural design to release and maintenance.
- Architectural Excellence: Improve system architecture and design components that integrate smoothly across APIs and microservices.
- Technical Leadership: Act as a go-to resource for your team, mentoring junior engineers, conducting critical code reviews, and raising the bar for engineering standards.

### Who You Are

- Location: You live in Kraków or nearby area and you are willing to work in a hybrid mode - twice per week from our office.

- Frontend Mastery: Strong skills in Angular and TypeScript. You are proficient with RxJS and modern build systems (Webpack, Jenkins). Experience with Vue.js is a plus.
- Backend Exposure: While the daily work is heavily frontend-centric, prior exposure to of Java, Spring JPA/Hibernate, Maven, Microservices (Netflix OSS is a plus) and Cloud technologies is a welcome bonus, offering a great foundation for future fullstack growth within the team.
- System Design: You have a solid grasp of Enterprise Integration Patterns and can design systems that handle complex data flows between services.
- The "Senior" Edge: You don't just solve tickets; you identify gaps in tooling, reduce technical debt, and optimize CI/CD pipelines to streamline delivery.
- Communication: Excellent English (spoken and written). You can confidently explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and get buy-in for your architectural decisions.
- Domain Knowledge: Previous experience in Fintech or Banking is highly considered an advantage.
