• Hands-on technical depth; ability to read code, challenge assumptions, and prototype when needed.

• Excellent communication skills; comfortable presenting design decisions to executives and engineers alike.

Responsibilities

• Translate business and functional requirements into clear technical architectures.
• Produce solution designs, architecture diagrams, and documentation for engineering teams.
• Lead technical discovery sessions with stakeholders, vendors, and development teams.
• Build and validate proof-of-concept implementations for new platforms and approaches.
• Define integration patterns across applications, APIs, data stores, and cloud services.
• Review designs and implementations for fit, scalability, security, and maintainability.
• Identify risks and tradeoffs early, and recommend a practical path forward.
• Support proposals and client-facing discussions, explaining architecture to technical and non-technical audiences.
• Contribute to reference architectures, standards, and reusable design patterns.
• Mentor engineers and raise the bar on how we design systems.
