Software Architect

• Partner with the Solutions Architect to own the system architecture end to end, from proof of concept through design to production.
• Translate business goals and product requirements into scalable, reliable architecture, and communicate technical direction clearly to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders.
• Design and build software hands-on in C# and Angular, setting the technical standards the rest of the team builds against.
• Maintain clear architecture documentation, including design decisions, system diagrams, and technical specifications, so the team can build and extend with confidence.
• Own the Azure environment: deploy application workloads into production, manage high-level Azure infrastructure, and maintain infrastructure as code.
• Engineer and maintain fully automated CI/CD pipelines that build and deploy our web-based applications.
• Champion security best practices and support SOC 2 compliance across our Azure environment.
• Drive developer enablement by introducing and scaling AI-assisted development tooling, and help integrate AI into our products.
• Own the quality bar through code and design reviews, ensuring work conforms to our architectural standards.
• Benchmark and tune application performance to meet scalability, reliability, and SLA targets.
• Coach and mentor engineers, growing the team's capability in our development practices and standards.
• Stay abreast of emerging technologies and industry trends, and champion adoption of the ones that make sense for our organization.

Requirements

• Associate or bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• 8-10+ years designing and implementing software applications, including large-scale projects, with time spent in an architecture or technical lead capacity.
• Proven track record balancing hands-on development with architecture and technical leadership.
• Strong understanding of software architecture and application design patterns.
• Outstanding collaboration and communication skills, including the ability to convey technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience working in collaborative teams distributed across multiple time zones.
