Software Architect

$140k - $155k

Pampered Chef

Job Type


Full-time

Description

Our engineering teams build primarily in a modern, composable architecture while continuing to support and evolve legacy components where needed. This role sits directly within a sprint team as the technical architect for the solutions being delivered.

We are looking for a Software Architect who enjoys both designing systems and contributing to them. Someone who can think strategically about architecture, guide sound technical decisions, and also step into the codebase to help move delivery forward.

This role carries clear design authority within the team's domain. You will shape technical direction, guide solution design, and influence how work is executed - while working collaboratively across engineering and product.

What You'll Do
  • Serve as the embedded technical architect within a sprint team
  • Design scalable, maintainable solutions aligned to our broader platform direction
  • Contribute meaningful production code as part of ongoing delivery
  • Make and guide key architectural decisions within your domain
  • Set clear technical standards and hold the team accountable to them
  • Partner closely with your Engineering Manager and Product Manager to drive well-designed, executable solutions
  • Engage with other Software Architects and enterprise-level leaders to align patterns and practices across teams
  • Contribute to platform evolution and system health beyond individual stories
The Environment You'll Work in
  • Frontend: Angular, React, TypeScript, Next.js
  • Backend: Node.js, Java, REST APIs
  • Eventing: Kafka
  • Cloud: AWS (EC2, S3, CloudFormation, Lambda)
  • Tooling: Jenkins, Bitbucket, Jira, Dynatrace, Snyk, AI-assisted development tools
  • Platform: Composable microservices architecture with select Hybris-powered components
Most new development happens within our modern stack, while legacy areas are maintained and evolved thoughtfully.

Why This Role Is Compelling
  • You will have real authority over solution design within your team
  • You will balance architectural thinking with hands-on contribution
  • You will influence cross-team practices through collaboration
  • You will help define and reinforce engineering excellence in practice
  • Your decisions will directly impact delivery speed, system quality, and developer experience
Requirements
  • Strong hands-on coding experience in JavaScript/TypeScript, Node.js, or Java
  • Proven ability to design and implement scalable distributed systems
  • Experience operating as a technical leader within a sprint-based delivery model
  • Comfortable making difficult technical calls and standing behind them
  • Ability to raise standards while maintaining strong working relationships
  • Strong communication skills and confidence partnering across engineering and product
  • Pragmatic thinking that balances long-term architecture with near-term delivery
What You Won't Be Doing
  • You won't be limited to documentation or design reviews without delivery impact
  • You won't be isolated from the sprint team or the codebase
  • You won't be expected to solve challenges alone without collaboration
  • You won't be operating in a purely theoretical architecture environment
The Kind of Architect Who Thrives Here
  • You enjoy both designing and building
  • You make clear decisions and explain the reasoning behind them
  • You push for strong patterns without overpowering collaboration
  • You think about platform health, not just feature completion
  • You take pride in helping teams execute at a higher level
If you are looking for a role where you can shape architecture, contribute directly to delivery, and influence how teams build software, we'd love to talk.
