UI Cloud Solution Architect

Looking for UI Cloud Solution Architect

Location: Plano, Texas (Hybrid)

Description

As the UI Frontend Architect, you will serve as the primary technical authority for our web ecosystem, bridging the gap between high-level Enterprise Architecture and team-level execution. Your mission is to define a scalable, framework-agnostic vision that ensures consistency, security, and elite performance across all digital products. You will act as the strategic gatekeeper for new enhancements, ensuring every implementation aligns with our long-term architectural roadmap and Cloud-native infrastructure.

Core Responsibilities:

• Architectural Governance: Collaborate with Enterprise Architecture to align frontend strategies with global infrastructure. Define the high-level roadmap for the frontend stack, including Cloud-native deployment strategies and serverless integration.
• Micro-Frontend Orchestration: Design and manage the strategy for Microfrontends, ensuring seamless orchestration, shared state management, and independent deployment cycles across distributed teams.
• Design & Code Quality: Perform rigorous reviews of Low-Level Designs (LLD) and source code. Ensure implementations adhere to architectural standards, scalability requirements, and clean code principles.
• Pattern Standardization: Establish and document Standard Design Patterns (e.g., Component-Driven Development, Modular Architecture, State Management) to be followed by the entire development organization.
• Estimation & Scoping: Critically review and validate Level of Effort (LOE) for new enhancement requests. Ensure technical feasibility and identify potential architectural risks during the discovery phase.
• R&D and Product Evaluation: Proactively evaluate third-party products, SaaS integrations, and emerging frameworks. Lead Proof of Concepts (POCs) to determine the ROI of adopting new tools or services.
• Technical Mentorship: Provide ongoing technical guidance to lead developers, fostering a culture of excellence and architectural integrity.

Required Qualifications & Skills

• Architectural Vision: 10+ years of frontend experience, with 3+ years in a dedicated Architectural or Principal-level role.
• Framework Agnostic Expertise: Deep understanding of modern UI frameworks (e.g., React, Angular, Vue) and the ability to define cross-framework standards.
• Micro-Frontend Mastery: Proven experience implementing and scaling Microfrontend architectures using Module Federation, Web Components, or similar orchestration techniques.
• Cloud-Native Proficiency: Strong understanding of deploying frontend applications using modern cloud services (e.g., AWS S3/CloudFront, Azure Static Web Apps) and Edge computing.
• Analytical Depth: Exceptional ability to critique Low-Level Designs and identify potential bottlenecks or technical debt before development begins.
• Communication Mastery: Proven track record of influencing Enterprise Architecture boards and stakeholders while effectively guiding engineering teams.

Requirements

• Modern Tooling Ecosystem: Hands-on experience with React for building complex UIs and Vite for high-performance bundling and development workflows.
• Component Documentation: Experience using Storybook to build, document, and test UI components in isolation to facilitate a design-system-first approach.
• Design Systems: Experience with Headless UI architectures and maintaining shared component libraries.
• Web Security & Accessibility: Strong knowledge of CORS, CSP, XSS prevention, and WCAG accessibility standards.
• CI/CD Automation: Familiarity with automated testing and deployment pipelines for complex multi-repo or monorepo environments
