NOW HIRING · WORLD-CLASS TALENT Backend Tech Lead (Senior Level Engineering Leadership)
Placed by Recruiting Bond on behalf of a Confidential Digital Platform Leader
📍Location: Bengaluru, India (Hybrid / On-Site)
🏢Sector: Technology, Information & Media
👥Company Size: 1000 – 1000 Employees
💼Employment: Full-Time, Permanent
🎯Experience: 6 – 9 Years (Backend Engineering)
🚀 Level: Tech Lead
ABOUT THIS MANDATE
Recruiting Bond has been exclusively retained by one of India's most well-established digital platform organisations — a company operating at the intersection of Technology, Information, and Media — to identify and place a world-class Backend Tech Lead who can drive a transformational engineering agenda at scale.
This is not an ordinary role. The organisation is executing a high-stakes, large-scale modernisation of its backend infrastructure — migrating from legacy monolithic systems to resilient, cloud-native, AI-augmented distributed architectures that serve millions of concurrent users. The person in this seat will be a core pillar of that transformation.
We are looking exclusively for the top 1% — engineers who think in systems, own outcomes, and lead by example.
THE OPPORTUNITY AT A GLANCE
🏗️ Architecture Ownership
Drive system design decisions across the entire backend platform. Shape the future of distributed, fault-tolerant architecture.
🤖 AI-Augmented Engineering
Embed GenAI and LLM tooling directly into the SDLC. Champion automation-first development practices across squads.
🎓 Engineering Leadership
Mentor and grow the next generation of backend engineers. Lead hiring, reviews, and cross-functional technical alignment.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
1\. Architecture & Platform Modernisation
– Lead the full migration of legacy monolithic systems to a scalable, cloud-native microservices architecture
– Design and own distributed, fault-tolerant backend systems with sub-millisecond SLO targets
– Architect API-first and event-driven platforms using async messaging patterns (Kafka, Pub/Sub, SQS)
– Resolve systemic performance bottlenecks, concurrency conflicts, and scalability ceilings
– Establish backend design standards, coding guidelines, and architectural review processes
2\. Distributed Systems Engineering (Production-Grade)
– Design and implement Webhook reliability frameworks with intelligent retry and exponential backoff strategies
– Build idempotent, versioned APIs with enterprise-grade rate limiting and throttling controls
– Implement circuit breakers, bulkheads, and resilience patterns using Resilience4j / Hystrix or equivalents
– Engineer Dead-Letter Queue (DLQ) strategies and event reprocessing pipelines with guaranteed delivery semantics
– Apply Saga orchestration and choreography patterns for distributed transaction integrity
– Execute zero-downtime deployments and canary release strategies with rollback capability
– Design and enforce multi-region disaster recovery and business continuity protocols
3\. AI-Driven Engineering Practices
– Champion LLM and GenAI adoption as first-class tooling across the software development lifecycle
– Apply prompt engineering techniques for automated code generation, review, and documentation workflows
– Utilise AI-assisted debugging, root cause analysis, and predictive performance optimisation
– Build automation-first pipelines that reduce toil and accelerate delivery velocity
– Evaluate and integrate emerging AI developer tools into the engineering ecosystem
4\. Engineering Leadership & Culture
– Own backend platforms end-to-end with full accountability across development, stability, and performance
– Actively mentor, coach, and elevate engineers at all levels (L3–L6) through structured 1:1s and code reviews
– Drive and lead technical hiring — from designing assessments to final hire decisions
– Partner with Product, Data, DevOps, and Security stakeholders to align engineering with business objectives
– Represent the engineering org in cross-functional roadmap planning and architecture decision reviews
– F
