• Translate complex architectural concepts into actionable direction for both technical and non-technical partners.

Who you are and what you need:

• Bachelor's degree in software engineering, computer science, or related field, or equivalent experience required.
• 5+ years of software development or architecture experience.
• Broad experience across multiple technical domains with a track record of making sound architectural decisions.
• Deep understanding of scalable, distributed systems and the tradeoffs involved in evolving them.
• Strong hands-on skills in C#/.NET and React.
• Ability to connect architecture to customer outcomes, balancing engineering excellence with business impact.
• Experienced in mentoring and influencing across teams without relying on authority.
• Experience with modern software development methodologies (Agile, Scrum, etc.).
• Ability to communicate and engage with technical and nontechnical partners.

We are giving you:

• Exceptional health packages, including medical, dental, and vision coverage, plus life insurance and short- and long-term disability benefits
