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

We're hiring a Solution Architect who will also act as our development team's lead — someone who proposes real technical solutions and then stays hands-on to help build them. This is not a role for someone who wants to hand off a diagram and walk away. You'll lead a small team (a Senior Software Engineer and a Junior Developer), make the architecture calls, and still be writing and reviewing code yourself. We want someone who thinks in terms of solutions delivered, not hours logged — who's willing to go the extra mile when a project needs it, and who's spent real time at a well-known Pakistani software house doing both hands-on development and solution architecture work. What You'll 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 team's output Take ownership of problems beyond your immediate ticket when that's what it takes to actually ship What We're 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 If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. 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.
