  • Define and maintain system architecture, including service boundaries, data flows, integration patterns, and API design.
  • Translate business requirements into technical designs, architecture diagrams, ADRs (Architecture Decision Records) and implementation roadmaps.
  • Provide technical leadership and guidance to engineering teams (code/design reviews, best practices, standards).
  • Evaluate and select technologies, tools, and frameworks; create reference implementations and proofs of concept.
  • Design and oversee data models, storage strategies, and database schemas (SQL and NoSQL).
  • Work with DevOps/Infra teams to define cloud and on-prem architectures (AWS preferred, plus bare-metal where appropriate).

  • Caching, message queues, and asynchronous processing.
  • CI/CD, version control (Git), and modern development workflows.
  • Strong communication skills: able to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
