Full description

We are looking for a hands-on Software Architect to help define and drive the next generation of enterprise SaaS solutions

This is not a purely strategic architecture role. The ideal candidate combines deep software engineering expertise, hands-on architecture and prototyping capabilities, cloud and DevOps knowledge, and strong technical leadership.

What You'll Do

  • Define and evolve the architecture vision and technical roadmap for a large-scale SaaS platform.
  • Design complex enterprise systems with scalability, security, maintainability, and long-term business objectives in mind.
  • Build working prototypes and Proofs of Concept (POCs) that development teams can leverage.
  • Remain hands-on with engineering teams while driving architectural standards and best practices.
  • Partner with other architects to define platform architecture and technology strategy.
  • Collaborate with Product leaders to ensure architecture supports the product roadmap.
  • Work with executive leadership on strategic technology initiatives.
  • Drive the design and integration of major new platform capabilities.
  • Lead architectural decisions involving cloud, APIs, messaging, data, DevOps, and application modernization.
  • Lead and support legacy modernization initiatives.
  • Coach and mentor architects, senior engineers, and software developers.
  • Establish engineering standards and processes for delivering high-quality software.
  • Evaluate emerging technologies and determine their applicability to the platform.
  • Leverage modern AI-assisted engineering tools, including GitHub Copilot and Claude Code.
