Dive into the pulse of cutting-edge solutions with Patrianna LTD! 🚀

Are you ready to dive into the dynamic world of social gaming and be part of a rapidly expanding team? We’re on the lookout for a talented Engineering Manager (Java) to join our Patrianna LTD team on a full-time basis.

Who We Are

At Patrianna LTD, we’re building a global social entertainment platform, focusing on innovative sports-oriented skill games for the North American market. With a reach of up to 150 million players worldwide, we combine creativity and technical excellence to lead in the dynamic world of social gaming.

Who We’re Looking For

As the Engineering Manager in Patrianna’s team, you will start by getting deep into the code — not just reviewing it, but actively writing features, debugging issues, and learning the architecture from the inside out. For the first 3+ months, your focus will be hands-on development: understanding our systems, our domain, and how our teams deliver software. This is a critical phase to build credibility, context, and technical ownership before taking on broader leadership responsibilities.

This role is perfect for someone who leads by example — someone who believes that great engineering leadership starts with strong engineering. You’ll collaborate with talented engineers and insightful product managers to deliver customer-centric solutions, and over time, you’ll grow and support high-performing teams that do the same.

If you’re an experienced Java engineer who enjoys solving complex problems, thrives in production environments, and is ready to transition into a leadership role while staying technically grounded — let’s talk.

Responsibilities:

• Be a hands-on technical leader: actively contribute to the codebase (primarily in Java), lead complex feature development, and guide the team through architectural and engineering challenges.
• Own and drive technical decisions: design scalable, maintainable systems; document architecture, lead discussions and reviews with engineers and stakeholders.
• Balance leadership and execution: split your time between coding, designing systems, mentoring engineers, and ensuring delivery aligns with product goals.
• Supervise and participate in planning, people allocation, delivery expectations, and technical initiatives across teams.
• Drive cross-team initiatives like analytical database setup, infrastructure upgrades, and performance tuning.
• Continuously improve engineering practices: enhance CI/CD pipelines, enforce code quality, streamline development processes, etc.
• Maintain technical excellence: reduce technical debt, promote innovation, and ensure systems are secure, performant, and easy to evolve.
• Foster a healthy team culture: encourage ownership, support professional growth, and ensure open, constructive communication.
• Support hiring and performance management: attract top talent, provide continuous feedback and lead performance and compensation reviews with fairness and transparency.
• Celebrate wins and navigate challenges: promote team success, handle setbacks constructively, and keep morale high — even in difficult situations.
• Maintain a healthy team culture: support psychological safety, foster knowledge sharing, and celebrate wins.
• Participate in hiring top engineering talent, making sure every new hire strengthens the team’s capability and culture.

Requirements:Must-Have:

• 10+ years of professional software development experience, with deep hands-on expertise in Java and its ecosystem
• Proven system design and architecture skills for scalable, resilient, and secure distributed systems
• Strong understanding of JVM internals, memory management, and performance optimization
• Solid experience with relational databases, especially PostgreSQL, including query tuning and indexing strategies
• Deep understanding of messaging systems (Kafka preferred) and asynchronous event-driven architectures
• Familiarity with concurrency, multithreading, and non-blocking I/O in Java
• Hands-on experience with microservices architecture, RESTful APIs, and web application security principles
• Proficiency with Kubernetes, containerized deployments, and modern DevOps practices
• Experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
• Experience with monitoring, observability, and incident response using tools like Grafana, Kibana, Sentry, or DataDog
• Strong code quality standards with experience in driving code reviews, testing practices, and CI/CD
• Track record of leading engineering teams (2+ teams or 15+ engineers), with a balance of technical leadership and people management
• Strong ownership mindset: ability to make and stand by tough decisions, align the team around priorities, and drive delivery
• Clear, confident communicator in English (Upper-intermediate+) — both technical and cross-functional communication
