Job description

Solution Architect – Shape Next-Gen Logistics SaaS!

About the Company

The company runs a cloud-native logistics platform scaling 60% year-on-year, orchestrating millions of parcels for retailers every week. Profitable, VC-backed, and remote-first (UK core hours), it offers a £1.2k personal learning budget, quarterly meet-ups, and modern kit to keep curiosity buzzing.

Why This Role Rocks

• First architect on the scene – design the playbook rather than follow one.
• Direct DDD exposure – work shoulder-to-shoulder with a globally recognized expert.
• Elite peers – collaborate with 19 senior developers operating deep in microservices, event sourcing, and CQRS.
• Hands-off code (Year 1) – focus 100% on architecture, then optionally add ~30% coding later.
• Document and evolve C4, ADR, and sequence diagrams across 20+ microservices.
• Facilitate architecture reviews and turn debate into pragmatic designs.
• Draft high-/low-level specs for resilience, data flow, and scalability.
• Champion best practices in Domain-Driven Design, Event Sourcing, and SOLID principles.
• Surface architecture metrics and guide incremental refactors.

Must-Have Skills

• 2–4 years of professional C#/.NET engineering with solid OO and SOLID instincts.
• Ability to explain complex ideas clearly in technical documentation.
• Familiarity with RESTful microservices and modern DevOps workflows.

Skills in Azure (AKS, Functions), DDD, CQRS, Event Sourcing, Kubernetes/Docker, IaC (Terraform/Bicep), Kafka/RabbitMQ, ADR/C4 are required, along with open-source or community contributions.

Package Snapshot
