  4. We are seeking hard-core geeks turned engineering managers turned management consultants bored of delivering 80 page PDFs. We want people who are hands-on techies and are interested in building things that matter to businesses generating real outcomes.

Our enthusiastic software engineers are just getting started -- and as a manager, you guide the way and set up examples by coming up with the best solutions to complex engineering problems.
  4. Collaborate with architects, product management, and other engineering teams to create solutions that increase the platform's value.
  5.

  6. Participate with senior management in developing a long-term technology roadmap. Influence, collaborate, and communicate effectively with various leaders.
  7. Drive a HAPPIER culture of constant improvement, identifying and implementing processes helping establish searce as the best-suited software engineering partner.


Education & Experience

Is Education overrated? Yes. We believe so. However, there is no way to locate you otherwise. So we might look for a Bachelor's or Master's degree in engineering from a reputed institute or you should be programming from 12. And the latter is better. We will find you faster if you specify the latter in some manner along with:

  1. Proven experience of 13+ Years out of which 3+ years in a leadership role overseeing software engineering teams, preferably within a professional services environment / Cloud Native App dev.
  2. Successful track record of Solution Architecting and High-end software development.
  3. Strong technical background with expertise in software development methodologies, languages, and frameworks.
  4. Excellent communication skills with the ability to articulate technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  5. Demonstrated success in delivering complex software projects on time and within budget.
  6. Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and adapt to evolving business needs.
  7. Leadership qualities including strategic thinking, decision-making, problem-solving, and team-building.
  8. Experience in client-facing roles with a focus on building and maintaining relationships.
  9. Our technology stack is insane and the role requires experience and understanding of technologies like Back End: Python, Node, Go Front End: Angular, React, Vue.js Databases: MongoDB, Google Cloud SQL, Graph/NoSQL, Bigtable Cloud: AWS, Google Cloud Platform


Are you the one? Quick Fit test:

  1. Love for technology: When was the last time your dinner entailed an act on “How would ‘Jerry Seinfeld’ pitch Cloud platform & products to this prospect” and your friend did the ‘Sheldon’ version of the same thing?
  2. Passion for sales: When was the last time you went to a remote gas station while on vacation, and ended up helping the gas station owner saasify his 7 gas stations across other geographies?
  3. Compassion for customers: You listen more than you speak. When you do speak, people feel the need to listen.
  4. Humor for life: When was the last time you told a concerned CEO, ‘If Elon Musk can attempt to take humanity to Mars, why can’t we take your business to run on the cloud?’
