We are looking for a Solution Architect who will drive the end-to-end design of our Core Services platform and its integrations with existing and upcoming products.
You will convert business goals into scalable, secure, and operationally efficient architectures for a modular microservices ecosystem deployed in a multi-cloud, multi-ledger environment. Collaboration will span across product, engineering leadership, DevOps/SRE, and commercial teams to reduce delivery risks and accelerate outcomes.
Requirements:
6+ years leading architecture and solution design in complex SaaS/PaaS environments.
Strong hands-on experience with cloud-native microservices, APIs (REST/gRPC), and messaging.
Proven delivery of secure, resilient, multi-region systems at scale.
Solid knowledge of CI/CD, IaC, operational excellence (SLIs/SLOs).
Ability to communicate architectural decisions clearly to both technical and business stakeholders.
Strong cross-functional collaboration experience (Product, DevOps/SRE, Security, PMO).
Responsibilities:
Platform & Solution Architecture
Define target architecture, service contracts, data flows, and NFRs across core and product teams.
Create ADRs, reference solutions, API/event standards, and reusable design assets.
Guide initiatives through discovery, technical design, implementation, and deployment.
Technical Governance & Enablement
Promote API-first design, horizontal scalability, and multi-tenant architectures.
Work closely with DevOps/SRE to ensure smooth CI/CD, observability, deployment readiness.
Lead balanced decision-making around cost, performance, and operational trade-offs.
Security, Compliance & Reliability
Apply security-by-design principles (mTLS/service mesh, secrets management, HSM/KMS/Vault).
Define and implement resilience strategies (active-active, failover, DR plans with RPO/RTO).
Ensure alignment with ISO/IEC standards and GDPR in partnership with Security & Compliance teams.
Cross-Team Collaboration
Partner with Product Owners to translate goals into well-defined epics and user stories.
Coordinate dependencies between core services and product squads, removing blockers.
Run design reviews, provide architectural direction, and deliver stakeholder communication.
Platform Roadmap & Standards
Maintain architectural roadmap and drive modernization by retiring legacy approaches.
Develop reusable documentation, templates, and starter kits for internal engineering teams.
Partner & Customer Enablement
Support solution design for strategic integrations while maintaining platform guardrails.
Define scalable onboarding patterns for SDKs, APIs, and external developer experiences.
Core Technical Domains
Cloud-native infrastructure (Kubernetes, Helm, Terraform, GitOps/ArgoCD, Vault/HSM)
Identity, access, and trust frameworks (SSO/RBAC, OIDC/OAuth2, signing services, DID/VC)
Platform services (API Gateway, policies, rate-limiting, security enforcement)
Event-driven systems (REST/gRPC, idempotency, NATS JetStream / Kafka)
Observability (OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Loki, alerting/runbooks)
Multi-region availability (routing, failover, DR testing)
Data platforms (PostgreSQL/distributed SQL, S3/object storage, Redis)
Web3-related (tokenization, wallets, fee engines, multi-ledger adapters: BSV/EVM/etc.)
