The Role: We are building a brand-new Platform group and have already recruited a strong foundational team. We are now looking for a Lead Technical Anchor to act as a Key Technical Partner to the Principal Architect. You will be one of the main players in the group, acting as the primary driving force to ideate, design, implement, maintain, and monitor a massive multi-tenant SaaS distributed ecosystem and inference platform. This mission-critical platform operates across three tiers: Cloud (Worldwide SaaS) On-Premise (Gateways / MSC2) Edge Device Sensors (SDR / IoT tactical devices) We need a heavyweight engineer with the battle scars of planning and designing distributed systems from scratch, but who is still "hot on code" and loves being deeply hands-on. We operate with a strict 'You Build It, You Run It' culture. (Note: While this role is heavily focused on backend architecture and platform infrastructure, we believe in end-to-end ownership. You will occasionally dive into the frontend (React) to deliver complete features).
