Software Architect

Join Tipalti's Procurement group as the group's first Software Architect - the one who will define the path, not just follow it.

We're not looking for someone we'll tell what to do; we're looking for the architect who will show us what's right to do.

You'll have the opportunity to shape the architecture from day one - setting the standards, making key design decisions, and defining how the product will scale and evolve.

As part of Tipalti's Architects Guild, you'll collaborate with other architects across the company, leading initiatives that impact the product as a whole while driving the architectural vision within the Procurement group.
