Engineering Manager - TypeScript Node/Nest

Role : Full Stack Manager - TypeScript + Node/Nest

Experience: 10+ years.

Location: Hyderabad, Telangana, India.

Work Mode : Hybrid,3 days a week work from office.

Employment Type: Full-Time

Key Responsibilities:

Technical Leadership (70%)

● Lead end-to-end architecture of scalable full stack web applications — from requirements gathering to production deployment on Cloudflare edge + AWS

● Actively contribute to critical modules, core services, and system design — hands-on engineering is a core expectation of this role

● Define and enforce engineering standards — TypeScript-first coding conventions,design patterns, security baselines, and performance benchmarks

● Architect and govern REST APIs, WebSocket services, and MCP server integrations across distributed systems built on NestJS/Node.js

● Design, develop, and integrate AI-powered features using Cloudflare Agents,LangChain, LangGraph, or similar AI agent frameworks

● Deploy and manage applications on AWS (S3, Athena, k8s/EKS) — edge-first architecture

● Drive performance optimization, scalability planning, and production reliability across multiple web apps serving internal and external users.

● Lead technical discovery and solutioning for new features, integrations, AI tooling, and platform migrations

● Own CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices in collaboration with the DevOps team — GitLab CI, conventional commits, and deployment automation

● Conduct deep-dive code reviews and architectural walkthroughs ensuring correctness, maintainability, and TypeScript-first quality

● Champion automated testing strategy — unit, integration, and end-to-end coverage using Jest, Vitest, and Playwright

● Leverage AI coding assistants (GitHub Copilot, Claude, Antigravity) to accelerate development and model best practices for the team.

People & Delivery Management (30%)

● Lead and grow a team of 6–12 engineers — manage hiring, onboarding, and career development

● Set clear goals, expectations, and performance benchmarks — conduct regular 1:1s and structured performance reviews

● Mentor senior and mid-level engineers toward technical leadership; build a culture of ownership, accountability, and continuous learning

● Partner with Product Management to translate business requirements into engineering roadmaps and delivery plans

● Collaborate with cross-functional teams (QA, DevOps, Design, Product) to ensure smooth delivery and consistent quality

● Manage project timelines, dependencies, and technical risk — communicate status and blockers to leadership proactively

● Stay current with emerging technologies — AI agents, edge computing, WebSockets, MCP — and drive continuous adoption of better engineering practices.

Required Skills (Mandatory)

Technology skills in order of priority:

● TypeScript — 10+ years; deep expertise in strong typing, generics, and TypeScript-first

architecture on both frontend and backend. TypeScript is the primary language — not Python.

● AI Agents — hands-on experience with Cloudflare Agents, LangChain, LangGraph, Flue,or similar; prompt engineering, RAG pipelines, and AI-powered feature integration

● Cloud Providers — AWS (S3, Athena, k8s/EKS) and/or Azure; hands-on infrastructure and deployment experience

● REST APIs, WebSockets & MCP Servers — designing, governing, and consuming APIs; real-time services and Model Context Protocol server integration

● Node.js / NestJS — backend service development, TypeScript-based REST and WebSocket APIs

● SQL / PostgreSQL & Prisma ORM — query optimization, data modeling, schema design, and ORM-based data access

● Git & CI/CD — GitLab CI pipelines, conventional commits, branching strategies, and release automation

● Python — working familiarity for scripting and data tasks (deprioritized; TypeScript preferred for all APIs and services)

● UX Engineering mindset — deep appreciation for design systems, accessibility, and UI quality; UX engineering background is a strong plus.

Preferred Qualifications

● Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field

● 10+ years of hands-on experience in full stack development

● At least 3 years in a Technical Lead or Engineering Manager role

● Proven track record of delivering large-scale, distributed, cloud-hosted applications

● Demonstrated ability to grow and retain high-performing engineering teams

● Strong problem-solving, system design, and architectural decision-making skills

● Excellent communication skills — ability to translate complex technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders

● A strong, loosely held opinion about what a modern data stack looks like — and what belongs or doesn't belong in it

● Passion for AI-powered engineering — especially agent frameworks, edge computing, and modern frontend architecture
