WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING
* Lead a cross-functional team of Back-End and Front-End developers and QA
engineers, ensuring the scalability, performance, and reliability of our
internal usability tools.
* Own and continuously improve the team’s development and on-duty processes —
maintaining balance between delivery speed and production stability.
* Design and implement robust back-end solutions using Java and Spring Boot,
integrating with APIs, databases, and external data systems (e.g.,
SingleStore, PostgreSQL).
* Collaborate with Product Owners and UX Designers to build end-to-end product
features that empower marketing operations and studio users.
* Ensure production reliability — monitor system SLIs/SLOs, handle incidents
effectively, and drive root cause analysis for long-term stability.
* Mentor and develop engineers, driving excellence in code quality,
architecture, and design.
* Contribute to technical strategy — evaluate architectural options, plan
refactors, and reduce technical debt.
* Drive continuous improvement in CI/CD pipelines, observability, and
automation practices.
YOUR EXPERIENCE & SKILLS
* 5+ years of experience as a Software Engineer.
* 2+ years of experience in a Team Lead or Tech Lead role, managing mixed teams
(FE/BE/QA).
* Strong hands-on expertise in Java, Spring Boot, REST APIs, and microservice
architecture.
* Experience with databases (PostgreSQL, SingleStore, or similar) — including
schema design and query optimization.
* Familiarity with message brokers (Kafka, RabbitMQ) and asynchronous
processing.
* Experience with CI/CD tools (Jenkins, TeamCity) and observability platforms
(Grafana, Kibana, Prometheus).
* Good understanding of frontend integration principles (React, TypeScript,
RESTful APIs).
* Proven experience in supporting production systems and participating
in on-duty rotations.
* Ability to identify and address performance bottlenecks and scalability
issues.
* Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across teams and
stakeholders.
NICE TO HAVE:
* Experience with data pipelines or analytical systems (Vertica, Cloudera).
* Familiarity with containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes).
* Experience with automated testing (JUnit, Playwright BDD, Jest).
WHAT YOU’LL GAIN
* Ownership of critical internal products used across Playtika’s Marketing
R&D ecosystem.
* Opportunity to shape team culture and processes in a technically complex,
high-impact environment.
* Close collaboration with data, UX, and product teams on real business
challenges.
* A leadership role with strong hands-on impact and autonomy
in decision-making.
