Role Overview:

As a Practice Leader, you will lead teams specializing in ML/Data Engineering and Full Stack Development.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Strategic Leadership: Develop and implement the strategic vision, ensuring alignment with business goals. Drive growth by identifying emerging trends and fostering innovation.
  • Team Leadership: Lead and mentor the team, promote a collaborative culture, and manage performance through feedback and goal setting.
  • Practice Development: Evolve service offerings, collaborate with sales and marketing, and pursue business opportunities to expand the practice.
  • Project Delivery & Technical Excellence: Oversee the delivery of multiple projects—either directly or through the team—ensuring smooth execution and maintaining high standards of technical excellence.
  • Financial Management: Oversee budgeting, forecasting, and P&L, ensuring the Practice is within budget and resources are utilized effectively.
  • Staffing & Resource Management: Manage project staffing, collaborate with talent acquisition, and optimize resource utilization across projects.
  • Quality Assurance: Establish best practices, conduct project reviews, and drive continuous improvement in processes and capabilities.
  • Collaboration & Knowledge Sharing: Collaborate across practices, contribute to strategic company initiatives, and foster a culture of internal knowledge sharing.

Requirements:

  • Extensive experience in Data Engineering, Machine Learning, and Full Stack Development.
  • Strong proficiency in Python and TypeScript.
  • Hands-on experience with React or similar frontend frameworks, particularly in building dashboards, analytics interfaces, and visualization components.
  • Deep expertise with AWS, focusing on scalable architectures, DevOps practices, monitoring, and deployment automation.
  • Proven experience in developing and managing ML pipelines, data workflows, and integrating LLM/GenAI solutions.
  • Demonstrated leadership experience managing teams, preferably within consulting or service-oriented environments.
  • Ability to teach and mentor. The role assumes providing employees with their career path and helping them achieve goals.
  • Ability to clearly articulate complex technical concepts to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Excellent diplomatic and conflict-resolution skills, combined with empathy, ethics, and emotional intelligence.
  • Calm and resilient demeanor, capable of managing dynamic teams and projects with diverse challenges.

Preferred Experience:

  • Prior experience in consulting environments rather than strictly product-based companies.

Success Roadmap for a Python Full stack Practice Leader:

  • Month 1 – Integrate & Assess: Conduct a smooth knowledge transition, meet the team, and evaluate current processes and KPIs.
  • Month 2 – Align & Connect: Refine KPIs with leadership, build relationships across the organization, and align application development practice with business goals.

We offer:

  • Remote-first work environment with flexible scheduling.
  • Opportunity to contribute to high-stakes projects for mid-sized and large corporations.
  • Collaborative culture that values innovation, curiosity, and continuous learning.
  • Competitive compensation package and professional development support.
