Job description

Purpose

The eCommerce Architect owns the technical architecture and integration strategy for flooranddecor.com and the broader eCommerce technology ecosystem.

Partnering closely with the eCommerce Leadership, the eCommerce Architect translates long-term technology strategy into a coherent, extensible architecture and provides technical authority across engineering pods without direct people-management responsibility.

Minimum Qualifications

• 10+ years of professional software development experience, including significant full-stack engineering work

Preferred
