  • Partner with product and engineering leadership to align architecture with long‑term business strategy.
  • Guide technology decisions balancing innovation, maintainability, and performance.
  • Drive the design of scalable, secure, and reliable distributed systems spanning APIs, data pipelines, integrations, and infrastructure.

Hands‑on technical skills:

  • Lead complex architectural and design reviews across multiple teams.
  • Build reference architectures, proofs of concept, and technical standards that accelerate velocity, raise the bar in engineering excellence, and improve developer experience.
  • Partner with Data and AI teams to design next‑gen AI infrastructure and systems that enable intelligent automation.
  • Champion modern engineering practices, including CI/CD, observability, security, and reliability.
  • Stay current on emerging technologies (AI/ML, cloud, large‑scale distributed systems) and bring the right innovations into our stack.

Required

  • 15+ years of software engineering experience, including 5+ years in senior or architectural roles.
  • Deep expertise in data systems, distributed architecture, and AI/ML infrastructure.
  • Strong experience with cloud‑native platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and modern frameworks (e.g., Python, React, TypeScript, or similar).
  • Proven ability to design and deliver scalable, maintainable systems in production environments.
  • Strong understanding of API design, event‑driven systems, data modeling, and CI/CD practices.

Preferred

  • Experience integrating AI/ML systems into production environments.
  • Experience with data pipelines, warehouses, or streaming systems.
  • Track record of mentoring engineers and guiding system‑level technical decisions.
  • Experience in SaaS, fintech, or enterprise product environments.
