We are seeking a Software Architect Director to elevate the engineering culture, code quality, and delivery productivity for our software platform. This role focuses on standardizing healthy development methods, defining the architectural principles that enable high-velocity, high-quality feature delivery in a complex, distributed environment. You will act as a force multiplier, defining the technical blueprint for clean code, robust testing, and efficient development lifecycles. Key Responsibilities:
  • Standardization and Productivity
  • Define Architectural Standards: Establish, document, and enforce company-wide software architecture patterns (e.g., microservices, event-driven architecture, distributed state management) suitable for high-throughput, distributed, and containerized environments.
  • Drive Code Quality: Define best practices for source control, code review, static analysis, and comprehensive testing, focusing on maximizing developer productivity and minimizing technical debt.
  • Standardize Development Workflow: Implement and champion robust CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices tailored for distributed service delivery, enabling frequent, reliable releases within a Kubernetes environment.
  • Interface Definition: Lead the standardization of all internal and external APIs and service interfaces to ensure consistency, scalability, and clean separation of concerns.
  • Technical Leadership and Governance:
  • Hands-on Governance: Act as the technical reviewer for major architectural changes, ensuring all new designs adhere to established quality standards and high-availability performance goals.
  • Mentorship: Actively coach and mentor software development teams on advanced architectural principles, clean code practices, and performance tuning for distributed systems.
  • Systemic Vision: Maintain a broad, strategic view of the entire software ecosystem, anticipating scaling challenges and proactively defining solutions that enhance maintainability and long-term viability.
  • Performance Engineering: Define and monitor non-functional requirements (NFRs) related to throughput, latency, reliability, and resilience, and design solutions to meet these critical distributed system constraints.
What You Should Have:
  • Software Architecture Expertise (5+ years): Extensive experience defining and governing software architecture for complex, high-performance distributed systems.
  • Networking Platform Mastery (5+ years): Deep, demonstrable experience architecting software for high-throughput networking systems (e.g., control plane, data plane, large-scale service mesh).
  • Cloud-Native & Orchestration: Expert-level proficiency in designing, deploying, and optimizing applications running in Kubernetes (k8s). Strong understanding of containerization, service discovery, and cloud-native patterns.
  • Quality Champion: Proven experience successfully driving initiatives to improve team productivity, code quality, and test automation coverage across multiple teams.
  • Hands-on and Collaborative: Willingness to be hands-on with proof-of-concepts, debugging, and implementation guidance, while thriving in a great team environment.
  • Exceptional Communication: High verbal and writing expression skills, able to articulate complex technical trade-offs to engineers and leadership effectively.
  • Leadership & Interpersonal Skills: High interpersonal skills and a consensus-driven approach, capable of leading processes and achieving cross-functional alignment.
  • Organized and Systemic: Well organized with the ability to define, lead processes, and track the adoption of large-scale architectural transformation initiatives while maintaining a broad systemic vision.
Nice to Have:
  • Cellular Networking Standards: Familiarity with cellular networking standards (e.g., 3GPP, O-RAN) or other high-reliability telecom protocols.
  • Prior experience acting as a lead or principal engineer responsible for establishing CI/CD or DevOps practices.
  • Advanced knowledge of distributed tracing, logging, and monitoring solutions (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Jaeger).
Education:
  • B. SC in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or Electrical Engineering - Must
  • M. SC in a relevant field – Advantage
