We're seeking a Staff Engineer with deep backend expertise in Ruby on Rails or Python to join our engineering culture that values innovation, autonomy, and impact.

As a Staff Engineer at Lucidya, you'll play a crucial technical leadership role, taking ownership of final design reviews and ensuring all technical implementations align perfectly with our architecture standards and product vision. This position requires both technical excellence and leadership skills, as you'll be responsible for collaborating across teams to deliver scalable, secure, and high-quality software systems.

The ideal candidate brings 7+ years of backend software engineering experience, preferably in a SaaS environment, along with strong expertise in distributed systems, microservices, and event-driven architectures. You'll work with modern technologies including cloud platforms (AWS), containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), and both relational and non-relational databases.

This role offers the opportunity to shape the technical direction of a company that's transforming how businesses understand their customers through data-driven insights. You'll be working remotely with teams across multiple locations in Saudi Arabia and Egypt, contributing to a product that makes a real impact in the business intelligence space.

If you're passionate about technical excellence, enjoy mentoring others, and want to be part of a company that's pushing the boundaries of AI and Big Data analytics, this role offers the perfect blend of hands-on technical work and technical leadership.
