You lead a team of [6–10] backend and frontend engineers. You hire them, grow them, and

- Plan delivery with product: break down the roadmap, commit to realistic dates, and

- flag risks early.

- Own how the team works: planning, code review standards, releases and incident

response.

- Balance features against tech debt, reliability and security, together with the Solution

Architect.

unblocks the team
