Experience:

The Senior Product Architecture Engineer is a lead individual contributor responsible for steering the architectural roadmap of our platform. In this role, you will take ownership of designing and evolving our platforms microservices architecture, integrating advanced features, and guiding cross-team efforts to enhance scalability, observability, and

reliability.

Youll work hands-on with modern cloud technologies and function as a technical leader, ensuring that our engineering teams are following the best practices and that our platform architecture aligns with business goals.

Job Responsibilities:

• Drive microservices architecture design and evolution, owning the roadmap (service boundaries, integration, tech

choices) for scalability, and defining Kubernetes container sizing and resource allocation best practices.

• Deep expertise in microservices architecture, designing RESTful/event-driven services, defining boundaries, optimizing communication, with experience in refactoring/greenfield and cloud patterns (Saga, Circuit Breaker).
• Lead platform improvements, overseeing technical enhancements for AI-driven features like our AI Mapping Tool for smarter capabilities.
• Architect comprehensive observability, deploying metrics, tracing, logging tools (OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Tempo) for real-time monitoring and high uptime.
• Define container sizing and lead Kubernetes performance benchmarking, analyzing bottlenecks to guide resource

tuning and scaling for platform growth.

• Provide deployment/infrastructure expertise, guiding Helm for Kubernetes and collaborating on infrastructure

needs (Terraform a plus).

• Lead tooling/automation enhancements, streamlining deployment via Helm improvements, simpler YAML, and

pre-deployment validation to reduce errors.

• Lead evolution to event-driven, distributed workflows, decoupling orchestrators with RabbitMQ and patterns like Saga/pub-sub, integrating Redis for state/caching, improving fault tolerance/scalability.
• Collaborate across teams and stakeholders for architectural alignment, translating requirements into design and partnering for seamless implementation.
• Mentor engineers on coding, design, and architecture best practices, leading reviews and fostering engineering

excellence.

• Responsible for documenting architecture decisions (diagrams, ADRs), clearly communicating complex technical

concepts for roadmap transparency.

Required Skills

• Required 5+ years in software engineering, significant experience in designing distributed systems, and a proven track record of improving scalability/maintainability.
• Extensive production experience with Kubernetes and Docker, proficient in deploying, scaling, and managing apps on clusters, including cluster management on major cloud platforms.
• Proficient in deployment automation/config management, required Helm charts experience, familiar with CI/CD/GitOps, and Terraform/IaC exposure is a plus.
• Strong experience implementing observability via monitoring/logging frameworks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/Loki, tracing), able to instrument applications, and proven in optimizing distributed system performance.
• Hands-on with message brokers (RabbitMQ/Kafka) and distributed data stores like Redis, skilled in asynchronous system design and solution selection.
• Excellent technical communication and leadership, proven ability to lead architectural discussions/build consensus, comfortable driving projects and collaborating with Agile, cross-functional teams.
• Adept at technical documentation/diagrams, with an analytical mindset for evaluating new technologies and foreseeing design impacts on scalability, security, and maintainability.

Nice to Have

• Working knowledge of Terraform or similar Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) tools is a strong plus.
• Experience designing solutions that run across multiple cloud providers or integrate on-premises and cloud

resources is a plus.

• A background in enterprise integration platforms, workflow orchestration systems, or event-driven architectures (especially using RabbitMQ, Kafka, or similar), along with familiarity with enterprise integration patterns, is highly advantageous.
• Additional experience ensuring security, compliance, and reliability in cloud deployments, including knowledge of container security best practices or Kubernetes security/compliance standards (like SOC2, ISO27001), is a plus.
• A track record of staying up to date with emerging technologies and possibly contributing to tech communities or

open-source projects is a plus.

• Software development skills in one or more languages used for building microservices are a strong plus, with Java and Spring Boot being especially valued, though familiarity with .NET, Go, or Python is also beneficial.
