The SaaSLab group is part of the AFOS (AppsFlyer Operating System) unit which owns the SaaS platform and control plane of AppsFlyer — the foundational layer that manages users, accounts, billing, API gateway, authentication, permissions, and business integrations.

Drive the design and delivery of scalable backend systems and data flows, including decoupling from legacy data stores, building a resilient domain model, and adopting modern patterns like GraphQL Federation where relevant
Work closely with product managers and cross-functional stakeholders, taking accountability for team deliveries and ensuring the team ships on time with excellent quality
Stay hands-on and involved in architecture discussions, design reviews, and code reviews
Lead technical initiatives, processes, and architectural decisions within the team
Drive adoption of AI-powered tools and modern SDLC practices to improve team velocity and quality
Be an active and engaged member of the SaaSLab leadership group, contributing to the unit's engineering vision, processes, and culture
What You Have
2+ years of experience managing engineers or technical teams
6+ years of development and design experience, with strong backend engineering skills

Strong architectural thinking, with experience leading migrations or modernization initiatives
Excellent analytical and interpersonal skills to work successfully with engineers, product owners, and business stakeholders
Proven track record of recruiting and managing high-performing engineers

Nice to have

Experience with SaaS platform systems — identity, access management, billing, multi-tenancy, API gateways, or similar control-plane domains
Experience working on core entity systems, identity/account management, or SaaS onboarding flows
