Solutions Architect

Why we're hiring:

A Solutions Architect designs end-to-end technical solutions that align business goals with scalable, secure, and maintainable architectures. This role partners with product, engineering, and stakeholders to translate requirements into technical designs, guide implementation, and ensure high-quality delivery across complex enterprise environments.

What you'll be doing:

• Demonstrate strong Java proficiency to design, prototype, and review core services and integrations.
• Architect and guide the development of large-scale enterprise applications, ensuring reliability, performance, and maintainability.
• Partner with product and engineering teams to translate business requirements into solution architectures, technical specifications, and implementation plans.
• Define and evangelize architecture standards, patterns, and best practices (e.g., layered architectures, microservices where appropriate, API-first design).
• Design integration approaches across systems, including RESTful APIs, messaging/event-driven patterns, and data synchronization.
• Evaluate and recommend technology choices, frameworks, and third-party components; perform trade-off analyses and document decisions.
• Ensure non-functional requirements are met, including security, scalability, observability (logging/metrics/tracing), resilience, and disaster recovery.
• Collaborate with DevOps/SRE to support CI/CD pipelines, deployment architecture, and operational readiness.
• Lead architecture and design reviews, mentor engineers, and provide technical guidance through delivery and post-release support.
• Identify technical risks and dependencies early; propose mitigation plans and drive resolution with stakeholders.

What you'll need:

• Strong proficiency in Java and the JVM ecosystem (e.g., Spring/Spring Boot), including performance tuning and troubleshooting.
• Demonstrated experience developing and supporting large enterprise applications with high availability and complex integrations.
• Experience producing architecture artifacts (solution diagrams, interface contracts, sequence diagrams, and design documentation).
• Solid understanding of distributed systems concepts (e.g., concurrency, caching, eventual consistency, resiliency patterns).
• Experience with relational databases and SQL; ability to model data and optimize queries.
• Knowledge of document-based (NoSQL) databases (e.g., MongoDB, Couchbase) including data modeling and query patterns.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical trade-offs to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Write clean, well-documented, and tested code.
• Take features from start to finish, including testing, with empathy for the end-user experience.
• Participate in a constructive and inclusive culture of peer code reviews.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with cloud platforms (Azure/AWS/GCP) and cloud-native architectures.
• Experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Familiarity with messaging and event-driven design.
• Experience with identity and access management, application security, and threat modeling.
• Experience with observability tooling and practices (APM, centralized logging, distributed tracing).
• Experience with the Office 365 ecosystem.
• Experience with Okta and/or other single sign-on (SSO) identity providers.
