This role combines strategic architecture leadership with hands-on technical contribution, helping teams modernize complex systems and align product development with a scalable, secure, and unified technology landscape. The position works closely with engineering, product, data, security, and infrastructure leaders to create practical architecture standards and drive adoption across multiple teams. Responsibilities: * Set the architectural vision for enterprise platforms and translate that vision into a clear future-state roadmap across products and engineering groups. * Design a centralized data and shared services platform that supports identity and access capabilities, integration services, master data management, search, APIs, analytics, governance, and reusable platform components. * Create reference architectures, technical patterns, and phased implementation plans that enable teams to adopt new capabilities incrementally. * Guide the modernization of legacy and mission-critical applications through staged architectural approaches that protect operational continuity. * Reduce duplication across systems and processes by defining scalable shared services, streamlined integrations, and consistent data flows. * Build and validate key technical components, proofs of concept, and prototypes to support architectural decisions. * Partner with engineering teams to ensure solution design and delivery choices are aligned with enterprise standards, security expectations, and long-term platform goals. * Establish effective architecture review practices, decision frameworks, and engineering standards that improve reliability, observability, maintainability, performance, and scalability. * Encourage thoughtful adoption of AI-assisted development practices and AI-enabled technical solutions where they provide measurable value. * Advise and mentor senior engineers while clearly communicating architectural direction and tradeoffs to both technical and executive stakeholders. ## Related Videos - [Watch Tests Go Brrrr! : Getting Started with Cypress in ReactJS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/282-watch-tests-go-brrrr-getting-started-with-cypress-in-reactjs) - [5 steps for running a Kubernetes environment at scale](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/88-5-steps-for-running-a-kubernetes-environment-at-scale) - [Intro to FastAPI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/462-intro-to-fastapi) - [What if your HR software adapted to you, not the other way around?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100259-what-if-your-hr-software-adapted-to-you-not-the-other-way-around) - [All your telemetry data from any source in one place](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/57-all-your-telemetry-data-from-any-source-in-one-place) - [Next Level Enterprise Architecture: Modular, Flexible, Scalable, Multichannel and AI-Ready?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1017-next-level-enterprise-architecture-modular-flexible-scalable-multichannel-and-ai-ready) ## Related Articles - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [The Best Job Search Websites of 2025](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/368-the-best-job-search-websites-of-2025) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [React Developer Salary [2023]](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/198-react-developer-salary-2023) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers)
