Descripción del empleo

Ready to take your career global?

Make your mark at one of the biggest names in payments. We are looking for the IT Architect to join our ever evolving Genius team and help shape the future of global commerce.

What you'll own

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• 12+ years of experience in software engineering, with at least 5 years in a solution architect, lead engineer, or principal engineer capacity
• Demonstrated experience designing and shipping payment integrations: card-present, gateway integrations, semi-integrated payment flows, tokenization, or PCI-scoped architectures
• Hands-on experience building or operating cloud-native systems on AWS or Azure (microservices, event-driven architecture, API design)
• Strong API design skills across REST and OpenAPI, including authentication/authorization patterns (OAuth 2.0, API key lifecycle)
• Experience integrating third-party platforms and designing scalable integration patterns (adapters, SPIs, provider-agnostic contracts)

What you'll bring

Technical:

• Cloud platforms:** AWS (ECS/Fargate, EKS, Lambda, SQS/SNS, Aurora, S3, CloudWatch) and/or Azure (App Services, AKS, Service Bus, Cosmos DB)
• Backend:** Java, .NET, Node.js, PHP, Go, or comparable; comfortable reading and reviewing across stacks
• Data:** Relational (MySQL/PostgreSQL/Aurora), caching (Redis), search (OpenSearch/Elasticsearch), big data pipelines (BigQuery, Athena, S3-based lakes)
• Messaging / events:** Kafka, SQS/SNS, or comparable event-driven architectures
• Mobile platforms:** Familiarity with iOS, Android, or React Native in the context of commerce client applications
• IaC and CI/CD:** Terraform, GitHub Actions, Harness, or equivalent
• AI/ML:** Practical experience with foundation model APIs (AWS Bedrock, OpenAI, GCP Vertex), prompt engineering, RAG patterns, agent frameworks, or MCP tooling
• Skills / Knowledge:** Having wide-ranging experience, uses professional concepts and company objectives to resolve complex issues in creative and effective ways.
• Job Complexity:** Works on complex issues where analysis of situations or data requires an in-depth evaluation of variable factors. Exercises judgment in selecting methods, techniques and evaluation criteria for obtaining results. Networks with key contacts outside own area of expertise.
• Supervision:** Determines methods and procedures on new assignments and may coordinate activities of other personnel.
• Action over artifacts:** Ships solutions, not documents. Diagrams exist to align teams, not to substitute for delivery. Value is measured by what teams build and ship, not by the elegance of designs in isolation.
• Bias toward decisions:** Makes the call when teams are stuck, documents the why and the risks.
• Shared mindset:** Before approving a net-new build, the first question is whether a peer domain already solved it or also has value in it.
• Communicates across levels:** Equally comfortable in an engineering design review and a product conversation about tradeoffs.

#Tooling

• Project and delivery management: Jira, Confluence
• Architecture and diagramming: Lucidchart, Miro, draw.io, or comparable
• API design and documentation: Swagger/OpenAPI, Postman, Apigee, or comparable
• Observability: Datadog, CloudWatch, or comparable APM/logging platforms

It's a bonus if you have

• Experience with point-of-sale systems or commerce platforms
• Familiarity with payment gateway ecosystems
• Experience designing or working with unified integration platforms, API gateways (Apigee, Kong, AWS API Gateway), or developer portals
• Experience building or architecting AI-enabled features: chatbot/conversational AI, RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, LLM tool use (function calling, MCP), or AI-assisted developer tooling
• Experience working across verticals (SMB, mid-market, enterprise) and understanding the architectural tradeoffs each requires
• Working knowledge of PCI DSS scope management and semi-integrated payment architectures
• Familiarity with P2PE, tokenization, and secure card data handling
• Understanding of payment tender types: credit/debit, gift card, BNPL, ACH, and alternative payment methods
