About the Role
We’re looking for a seasoned Full Stack Developer with deep MERN stack expertise to lead
technical initiatives and shape the future of SolarSquare’s web applications. As a Tech Lead,
you’ll drive architecture, scale systems to handle growing demand, and mentor engineers
across levels—all while collaborating with product and design teams to deliver impactful
solutions in a fast-paced startup environment.

Responsibilities
● Lead the design and development of complex, scalable, and high-performance web
applications using the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js).
● Drive architectural decisions and establish engineering best practices for performance,
maintainability, and security.
● Own end-to-end delivery of critical projects—from planning and technical design to
deployment and monitoring.
● Champion observability and monitoring practices using tools like Prometheus, Grafana,
ELK, or Datadog to ensure system reliability and proactively address bottlenecks.
● Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (Product, UX, QA, and DevOps) to
deliver seamless, user-focused features.
● Guide and mentor SDE1s and SDE2s, fostering a culture of technical excellence and
continuous learning.
● Define and track key engineering metrics (e.g., system uptime, latency, code quality) to
drive improvements across services.
● Maintain technical documentation and architectural diagrams for knowledge sharing and
team onboarding.
● Identify and address technical debt, scalability challenges, and opportunities for cost
optimization in cloud environments.
● Advocate for secure coding practices and ensure applications adhere to OWASP
standards and data protection policies.
Requirements
● 5–8 years of experience in full stack web development, with proven expertise in the
MERN stack.
● Proficient in JavaScript and TypeScript; strong hands-on experience with React.js,
Node.js, and building RESTful APIs.
● Deep understanding of microservices architectures, event-driven systems, and
distributed computing principles.
● Proven ability to design and scale systems handling high traffic, ensuring fault tolerance
and high availability.
● Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP), containerization (Docker), and
orchestration (Kubernetes).
● Strong knowledge of observability, monitoring, and alerting systems to maintain
production-grade applications.
● Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, DevOps practices, and performance optimization
techniques.
● Excellent problem-solving, debugging, and system design skills.
● Track record of mentoring engineers and leading technical discussions in Agile teams.
● Bonus: Open-source contributions, technical blog posts, or participating in engineering
meetups/conferences.
● Bonus: Experience optimizing cloud infrastructure costs and implementing robust
security practices.
