Responsibilities
- Own the target software architecture for assigned products and translate product strategy into practical technical roadmaps, solution designs, and delivery priorities.
- Design end-to-end cloud applications across user interfaces, application services, APIs, workflows, integrations, data access, infrastructure, and operational support.
- Create and govern reusable architecture patterns, engineering standards, and decision records that promote consistency without slowing delivery.
- Shape modular, domain-aligned services and bounded contexts that improve ownership, reduce unnecessary coupling, and support the continued evolution of the product portfolio.
- Guide the design of microservices, serverless components, asynchronous workflows, and event-driven solutions using AWS managed services, selecting patterns based on clear technical and commercial trade-offs.
- Define secure and scalable API strategies for internal services, customer integrations, and third-party platforms, covering REST, GraphQL, versioning, authentication, reliability, and lifecycle management.
- Provide architectural direction for modern web applications built with.NET, C#, ASP.NET Core, TypeScript, Angular, React, and appropriate user-interface component libraries.
- Ensure non-functional requirements are designed in from the outset, including availability, performance, accessibility, observability, recoverability, security, privacy, and cost efficiency.
- Partner with security and platform teams on identity, authorization, encryption, secrets, tenant isolation, network controls, threat modeling, and compliance requirements.
- Influence CI/CD, automated testing, infrastructure-as-code, release, monitoring, and support practices so solutions can be deployed and operated safely at pace.
- Lead architecture reviews and proofs of concept, documenting options and recommendations in a way that enables timely, well-informed decisions.
- Coach engineers and technical leads, remaining close enough to implementation to identify risks, resolve design challenges, and improve engineering quality.
