About the role
- Define, design, and own the end-to-end architecture for EVPassport’s internal operational systems, data infrastructure, and integration layer.
- Build and govern a unified internal source-of-truth architecture, ensuring data consistency, lineage, and reliability across all business systems (e.g., CPMS, ERP, CRM, payments, support).
- Architect scalable internal infrastructure—including APIs, event-driven services, data schemas, pipelines, and metadata frameworks—to support AI readiness, analytics, and automation.
- Drive the creation of reusable internal data models, shared services, and connectors that standardize how operational data flows across systems.
- Ensure our infrastructure is highly performant, resilient, secure, and designed to support rapid growth with minimal friction.
- Lead the design, governance, and evolution of internal and external APIs to support clean, normalized data exchange across platforms.
- Define integration patterns and frameworks for data ingestion, transformation, and synchronization between EVPassport systems and third parties.
- Oversee the data architecture that powers BI, AI/ML, and real-time operational insights, including schemas, storage strategy, and event architectures.
- Ensure data flows meet enterprise-grade expectations for accuracy, observability, compliance, and security.
- Provide hands-on architectural leadership to engineering teams, shaping best practices around service design, CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, and systems observability.
- Conduct deep technical reviews, guide high-impact implementation decisions, and deliver proof-of-concepts to de-risk architectural choices.
- Own platform-wide non-functional requirements (NFRs) such as reliability, scalability, throughput, latency, failover design, and cost efficiency.
- Evaluate and introduce new infrastructure technologies, automation tools, and cloud capabilities that accelerate development velocity and reduce operational overhead.
- Serve as the technical bridge between Product, Engineering, Data, and Operations teams—translating requirements into system designs and long-term architectural strategy.
- Partner with business leaders to ensure operational workflows, data structures, and platform capabilities scale with EVPassport’s growth.
- Collaborate with Data, AI, and Engineering teams to ensure the platform supports autonomous operations, predictive insights, and next-generation customer experiences.
- Additional projects as may be assigned by the Company.
