  • Collaborate with Principal Architects and senior stakeholders to define and enforce architecture principles, guidelines, and reference models.
  • Lead the development of technology roadmaps, strategic initiatives, and modernization programs.
  • Partner with executive leadership to align technology strategy with business goals.
  • Provide architectural oversight and mentorship to engineering teams across multiple domains.
  • Conduct architecture reviews, risk assessments, and performance evaluations.

  • 15+ years of experience in software engineering and enterprise architecture.
  • Expertise in Java, Spring Boot, and microservices-based systems.
  • Strong knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform) and hybrid cloud/on-prem integration.
  • Deep understanding of networking, databases (SQL/NoSQL), API design, and system observability.
  • Proven experience with compliance frameworks and secure architecture design.

  • Experience with DevOps, CI/CD, Kubernetes, and infrastructure as code (IaC).
  • Familiarity with AI/ML integration, data platforms, and real-time analytics is a plus.
