We are seeking an experienced Software Architect to lead the design and evolution of our modular, component-based platform. This role is central to shaping scalable, maintainable, and future-ready backend systems as we modernize existing solutions and develop new ones. You will own architectural direction, define and enforce technical standards, and collaborate across teams to align design decisions with business, operational, and product goals.
The role focuses on system design, technical governance, and documentation, with hands-on contributions to PoCs, prototypes, and MVPs where needed.
Responsibilities:
Design and document scalable, modular backend architectures that support componentized platform development.
Lead architecture reviews and provide actionable guidance to development teams.
Define, provision, and enforce architectural standards, patterns, and governance practices across teams.
Support system modernization and greenfield development initiatives.
Ensure architecture decisions are aligned with long-term product strategy and evolving toward SaaS-based delivery.
Collaborate with Product, DevOps, QA, and Data Engineering teams to align architecture with cross-functional needs.
Contribute hands-on to early-stage initiatives (e.g., PoCs, architectural spikes, MVPs) to de-risk implementation paths.
Design systems with security, auditability, observability, and operational resilience in mind.
Promote engineering best practices, CI/CD adoption, and high-quality coding standards across the organization.
Incorporate and encourage the use of AI-assisted development tools to improve efficiency, consistency, and innovation.

Solid understanding of Kubernetes, containerization, and CI/CD processes.
Proven experience designing modular, service-oriented systems and APIs.
Familiarity with Azure and/or AWS cloud platforms and relevant services.
Ability to document, communicate, and present complex designs to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Proficiency or strong interest in using AI-enabled developer tools to enhance architecture and engineering workflows.
Nice to have:
Experience in fintech or other regulated, security-sensitive industries.
Familiarity with frontend/backend integration strategies (e.g., React, REST/GraphQL).
Exposure to data architecture or platform architecture principles.
Experience with performance tuning, observability tooling, and secure design patterns.
