Key Responsibilities

  • Architecture & Design
  • Lead end-to-end solution architecture across discovery, design, delivery, and operational readiness for both platform and client solutions.
  • Design and build new platform infrastructure to support emerging product requirements and use cases.
  • Produce and maintain key architectural artifacts: ADRs, interface contracts, data flow diagrams, infrastructure specs, sequencing diagrams, migration/rollback plans, and traceability matrices.
  • Define and enforce architecture standards, integration patterns, and non-functional requirements across all solutions.
  • Platform Development
  • Write production code for critical platform features and infrastructure components.
  • Build core platform capabilities that enable rapid feature development and solution delivery.
  • Establish reusable patterns, shared services, and API-first designs for platform extensibility.
  • Serve as active technical lead in client engagements.
  • Lead Discovery Track activities.
  • Drive approvals and alignment across business and technical stakeholders.
  • Integration & Partnerships
  • Establish and maintain partner integration architectures across third-party ecosystems.
  • Govern architecture consistency across partner integrations and internal product lines.
  • Define authentication strategies (OAuth, SAML, API keys), error handling, and API versioning.
  • Quality & Governance
  • Ensure architecture quality gates and participate in design reviews and release sign-offs.
  • Identify and mitigate architecture risks — compatibility, data integrity, scalability, and partner dependencies.
  • Own risk analysis and mitigation for architecture decisions, including backward compatibility and compliance constraints.
  • Continuous Improvement
  • Contribute to continuous improvement through reusable patterns, automation, and cross-team alignment.
  • Mentor and upskill engineers and architects on AI-assisted development, Dual-Track workflows, and platform best practices.
  • Contribute to platform and portfolio strategy, identifying gaps requiring investment and reusable assets.

Must-Have

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • 8 years of professional software development experience, including recent hands-on coding and prototyping in modern technology stacks.
  • 5+ years designing cloud-native, microservices, or event-driven architectures (Azure or equivalent cloud platforms).
  • Strong experience building platform infrastructure and scalable backend systems.
  • Proven experience owning end-to-end solution delivery, including design, implementation, and post-release operational accountability for medium-to-large projects.
  • Experience with partner integrations — payments, SaaS APIs, loyalty, inventory, or authentication providers.
  • Hands-on experience building prototypes or reference implementations to validate architecture and solution feasibility.
  • Expertise in API-first design (REST/OpenAPI).
  • Experience with relational/non-relational databases (SQL/NoSQL).
  • Solid grasp of containerization, CI/CD, and Kubernetes-based delivery pipelines.
  • Practical experience with generative AI and AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor).
  • Excellent stakeholder communication skills, able to facilitate workshops, present technical solutions, and collaborate across business and engineering teams.
  • Proven leadership in mentoring engineers, conducting code reviews, and enforcing architecture governance.
  • Preferred
  • Strong retail platform domain knowledge (POS systems, store operations, payment processing).
  • Certifications such as Azure Solutions Architect, AWS Solutions Architect, or equivalent.
  • Experience with API Gateway or Integration Platforms (Azure APIM, Kong, Apigee, MuleSoft, Boomi).
  • Solid understanding of API security and compliance (OAuth 2.0/OIDC, JWT, PCI).
  • Familiarity with formal specifications (OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, JSON Schema) for contract-driven development.
  • Background in distributed systems, microservices architecture, and infrastructure as code.
  • Experience leading Dual-Track Agile processes, managing both Discovery and Delivery Tracks, and translating discovery outcomes into actionable backlog items.
  • Experience contributing to platform strategy, reusable assets, and API-first designs.
