Role overview
Acts as the local technical bridge between Saudi business, product, and operations teams and remote engineering teams abroad.

Success is measured by delivery, quality, stability, scalability, and outcomes.
Engineering delivery and reliability
- Translate business and operational requirements into technical tasks and acceptance criteria; monitor delivery, timelines, dependencies, and blockers.
- Validate completed work through staging, API testing, QA evidence, code review, and production behavior; own release readiness and deployment governance.
- Oversee cloud infrastructure, servers, hosting, and production configurations for availability, performance, security, and reliability.
- Monitor crashes, API and database performance, dispatch reliability, server health, and incidents; prepare infrastructure for growth.
- Coordinate incident response and root-cause analysis; review architecture, scalability, technical debt, security risks, and single points of failure.
- Ensure monitoring, alerting, backups, disaster recovery, and rollback procedures; report delivery and infrastructure KPIs.
- Challenge delays, quality issues, infrastructure risks, and unsupported completion claims, escalating where needed.
Experience and technical qualifications
- 10+ years of software or technology experience, including at least 5 years in a relevant technical lead, engineering supervision, program lead, or delivery role.
- Experience managing or coordinating remote/offshore engineering teams.
- Strong understanding of Python/Django or equivalent, REST APIs, SQL, Redis, queues, Docker, and cloud infrastructure.
- Practical Kotlin and Android development experience, including architecture, releases, debugging, and production issue analysis.
- Practical Swift and iOS development experience, including architecture, releases, debugging, and production issue analysis.
- Experience with Firebase services, including Cloud Messaging, Crashlytics, Analytics, and Authentication.
- Knowledge of AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Cloudflare, or equivalent hosting and edge-networking environments.
- Understanding of scalability, load balancing, caching, database optimization, CI/CD, backups, disaster recovery, and mobile deployment.
- Working knowledge of Android and iOS release processes, including Google Play Console and Apple App Store Connect.
- Strong Agile/Scrum and Jira, ClickUp, or GitHub experience; able to read code, review changes, inspect logs, and diagnose production issues.
- Experience with QA, CI/CD, monitoring, crash reporting, observability, and incident management; strong English and stakeholder-management skills.
Preferred experience
- Arabic speakers are highly preferred.
- Experience in SaaS ride-hailing, delivery, grocery, marketplaces, real-time dispatch/geolocation, or similar high-volume transactional platforms is preferred.
Success measures
Key KPIs include on-time delivery, sprint completion, cycle time, production defects, mobile crash/error rates, API performance, uptime, infrastructure and Firebase reliability, load-test readiness, incident resolution, release success, and recurring-incident reduction.
