Role Description

- Own architecture and technical design decisions for our core deep-tech platform (Cargo Eye, Assemble Planner, Assemble Builder), in close collaboration with our Boston-based Senior Architect

- Lead, manage, and grow a distributed engineering team across Singapore and India, holding them to a high bar as we scale a global, multi-phase deployment

- Get close to the customer: work directly with airline engineering and operations teams during deployment, testing, and go-live — not just shipping code, but helping redesign how cargo build-up actually happens on the ground

- Shape how our products adapt to real airline operations — feeding field learnings back into the core platform rather than treating deployment as someone else's problem

- Interact directly with client leadership and stakeholders as a trusted technical voice on a C-level-backed transformation

- Drive sprint planning, code quality, and delivery timelines that balance fast iteration with the reliability mission-critical airline operations demand

- Travel globally as needed to support deployments across Asia, the US, and Europe — this is a role that lives close to the deployment, not behind a screen

- Help lay the technical and operational groundwork for the next five years of Speedcargo's global scale-up

Requirement

- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience

- Excellent coding ability with strong fundamentals in software design patterns, data structures, and algorithms

- Proven experience leading or managing engineering teams, ideally distributed across multiple locations

- Strong hands-on experience with: Golang, Python, C/C++, React, Shell scripting, REST APIs, MongoDB, SQL

- Linux — mandatory, and very strong (not just familiar)

- Docker — mandatory

- Experience with DevOps tooling: Ansible, Terraform

- Working knowledge of Azure and AWS

- Excellent communication skills — comfortable presenting to and working directly with customer and executive stakeholders

- A track record of shipping and owning systems end-to-end, not just contributing to them

Who Will Thrive Here

- You want to help transform an industry — not just from behind a keyboard, but on the ground with the customer, changing how they actually operate

- You want to work on deep-tech and own core IP, not maintain someone else's roadmap

- You're comfortable with the ambiguity and pace of an early-stage startup — priorities shift, and you adapt

- You can operate independently and make sound calls without waiting for permission

- You're excited to lead people, not just write code — mentoring, unblocking, and holding a distributed team to a high bar

- You're willing to travel and get close to the customer and the deployment

- You take real ownership — this is a role with high trust and high expectations attached
