Team Lead, Application Development

Working arrangement: Work at the office 100% at Empire Tower (BTS Chong NonSri)

• Owns sprint planning, backlog grooming, and delivery cadence for the team ensuring commitments are met, and scope is managed proactively.
• Drives project execution from requirements through to production deployment, coordinating across dependent teams when necessary.
• Monitors delivery KPIs (velocity, cycle time, defect escape rate, deployment frequency) and takes corrective action when metrics deviate.
• Manages risks, dependencies, and blockers escalating early with proposed solutions rather than surfacing problems alone.
• Ensures release readiness, including regression coverage, rollback plans, and stakeholder sign-off.
• Coordinates with QA, DevOps, and product teams to maintain smooth CI/CD pipeline flow and minimize release friction.

• Participates in solution design discussions and ensures the team's technical decisions align with architectural standards and development protocols (including PCI DSS compliance, coding guidelines, and code management best practices).
• Conducts and enforces code reviews following the secured code review guidelines; ensures the team adheres to defined coding standards and CI/CD pipeline requirements (code scan, secret key scan, web scan).
• Makes pragmatic technical trade-off decisions balancing delivery speed with code quality and technical debt management.
• Troubleshoots and leads the resolution of production incidents within the team's domain, ensuring root cause analysis and lessons learned are documented.
• Stays current with the team's technology stack and contributes hands-on when critical path items require it.

• Manages a team of 3-6 developers: task assignment, workload balancing, and day-to-day performance management.
• Conducts regular 1-on-1s focused on growth, blockers, and career development.
• Mentors junior and mid-level developers through code reviews, pair programming, and knowledge-sharing sessions.
• Identifies skill gaps and coordinates with management on training plans or hiring needs.
• Fosters a team culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

• Provides clear, regular delivery status updates to senior management and product stakeholders.
• Translates business requirements into actionable technical tasks and acceptance criteria for the team.
• Collaborates with Solutions Architects and other Team Leads to ensure cross-team alignment on standards, shared services, and integration points.

• Proficient in .NET and/or Java with hands-on production experience; able to review code, debug issues, and contribute to critical deliverables.
• Solid experience with relational databases (SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL) able to review query performance, data models, and troubleshoot production data issues.
• Working knowledge of CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or equivalent) understands pipeline stages including code scan, secret scan, and deployment automation.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred), including containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and basic infrastructure concepts.
• Understanding of microservices architecture, API design (REST/gRPC), and event-driven patterns (Kafka, RabbitMQ, SQS).
• Familiarity with NoSQL databases (MongoDB, Redis, DynamoDB) and when to apply them.
• Experience with observability tools logging, monitoring, tracing (e.g., Datadog, Grafana, ELK, CloudWatch).
• Understanding of security best practices, including OWASP Top 10, authentication/authorization patterns (OAuth2, JWT), and PCI DSS application-level requirements.
• Strong knowledge of Agile/Scrum methodologies able to run ceremonies, manage sprints, and drive continuous delivery cadence.
• Proven ability to estimate, plan, and deliver work with a track record of shipping projects on time.
• Strong problem-solving and debugging skills with experience resolving production issues under pressure.

• Experience with system design for high availability, fault tolerance, and horizontal scalability.
• Exposure to event-driven / CQRS architectures.
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, CloudFormation).
• Familiarity with performance testing and optimization techniques for high-TPS systems.

• Excellent organizational and time management skills able to juggle multiple workstreams without dropping deliverables.
• Clear communicator in both English and Thai able to translate technical context for non-technical stakeholders.
• Good inter-team communication and ability to collaborate across engineering, QA, DevOps, and product.
• Comfortable with ambiguity can make decisions with incomplete information and course-correct as needed.
• High accountability mindset owns outcomes, not just tasks.
