Your goal is to eliminate technical complexity and set the rules of the game so developers can ship new features fast and without errors., * Technical Background: Proven experience as a Software Architect or Principal Engineer working with cloud SaaS products and systems handling large volumes of data. * Key Tools: Real-world experience with microservices, containers (Docker, Kubernetes), messaging systems * Proactive Mindset: You don't wait to be told what to do; you look for where the system might fail or where we are overspending, and you propose solutions. * Developer-Focused: You care about your fellow developers working comfortably and without frustrations using the tools you design. * Communication: Excellent English skills (written and spoken) to explain complex technical problems simply to both developers and executives. ## Description * Cloud Platform Design: Design and improve the cloud structure (AWS, Azure, or GCP) of our data platform, ensuring it works well for many clients at the same time. * Stability & Fault Tolerance: Build a system ready for failures, capable of recovering automatically and keeping things running if there are issues in production. * Making Life Easy for Developers: Create clear APIs, templates, and common tools so internal developers can write code faster and with fewer mistakes. * Cloud Cost Control: Monitor and optimize the use of cloud servers and tools (like Kubernetes) to keep the product cost-effective to run. * Improving Legacy Code: Identify parts of the system that have become outdated and plan how to improve them step-by-step without stopping daily work. * Technical Guidance & Standards: Review team designs and define the company's technical standards, helping to resolve questions without becoming a bottleneck. * Security by Design: Ensure the platform's structure inherently protects customer data and complies with security rules from the very beginning. * System Monitoring: Decide how we measure platform performance so that if something fails, we know exactly what happened within a few minutes. * Testing New Technologies: Build quick prototypes and test new tools before deciding whether to adopt them company-wide., Why Join Us?
