Solution Architect & Development Team Lead — React / Node.js / SaaS Architecture

Department: Operations

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: Islamabad, Islamabad, Islamabad, Remote

What Youll Do

• Propose end-to-end solution architecture for new projects and features across our portfolio — websites, SaaS-style solutions, and backend systems (including data-heavy builds like our Parts Blue vendor-catalog backend)
• Stay hands-on as lead developer — writing and reviewing production code in React and Node.js, not just producing architecture diagrams
• Lead and mentor a small development team, setting the technical direction and quality bar for their work
• Make the call on stack, tooling, and system design trade-offs, and stand behind those decisions
• Partner directly with our Technical Project Manager to scope, estimate, and sequence work across multiple concurrent projects
• Own code review standards and the overall technical quality/reliability bar for the teams output
• Take ownership of problems beyond your immediate ticket when thats what it takes to actually ship

What Were Looking For

• 7+ years of software development experience (10+ years ideal), including meaningful time in a Solution Architect or technical leadership capacity — not purely an individual-contributor track
• That experience should include time at a known, well-regarded Pakistani software house
• Continued, active hands-on development — you should still want to be in the code, not just reviewing it from a distance
• Strong, demonstrable React and Node.js expertise
• Real experience architecting SaaS-style, multi-tenant, or multi-client web solutions
• Comfort owning both frontend and backend architecture decisions
• Familiarity with modern tooling — Sanity, Vercel, Supabase, Cursor, GitHub (openness to newer AI-assisted tools like Lovable is a plus)
• A track record of leading or mentoring developers
• An outcomes-first mindset — you measure success by what got delivered, not hours logged
• Strong communication skills, including with non-technical stakeholders

Benefits

• Remote working opportunity
• Opportunity to work across multiple products and projects. 
• Exposure to modern technologies and AI-assisted development tools. 
• Opportunity to work closely with technical and project leadership.
