- Design scalable and resilient distributed systems capable of supporting millions of users and high transaction volumes.
- Establish clear architectural boundaries, service ownership, integration patterns, and data flows across multiple engineering teams.
- Drive critical architecture decisions involving microservices, APIs, event-driven systems, data platforms, and cloud infrastructure.
- Identify and eliminate architectural bottlenecks, technical debt, scalability limitations, and system dependencies.
- Lead architecture reviews and provide technical guidance to engineering teams.
- Collaborate with the CTO, Engineering Leads, Product Leaders, and business stakeholders to align technical architecture with business strategy.
- Evaluate new technologies, architectural approaches, and infrastructure solutions.
- Ensure security, reliability, observability, performance, and operational resilience are embedded into architectural decisions.
- Remain deeply involved in technical discussions, solution design, and implementation reviews.
Requirements
- 8+ years of software engineering experience, including 3+ years in enterprise, platform, or solution architecture roles.
- Mandatory experience architecting systems within FinTech, banking, payments, digital banking, or cryptocurrency companies.
- Proven experience designing architecture across multiple interconnected products, services, or business domains.
- Strong software engineering background, ideally as a Senior / Lead / Principal Engineer.
- Deep understanding of distributed systems, microservices, event-driven architecture, API design, and integration patterns.
- Experience designing high-load, fault-tolerant, and mission-critical systems.
- Strong knowledge of cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
- Understanding of financial transaction processing, data consistency, security, and regulatory requirements.
- Ability to define long-term architectural strategy while remaining technically hands-on.
- Experience driving architectural decisions across multiple engineering teams.
- Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
