eCommerce Architect

This is a hands-on technical architecture role rather than a people-management position. You will work closely with product, engineering, business, security, operations, and implementation teams to translate eCommerce strategy into scalable technical solutions and carry those designs through development, integration, testing, and launch.

• 8+ years of software engineering experience, including 3+ years designing and delivering enterprise eCommerce or marketplace solutions in an architecture capacity. \n

• Demonstrated experience delivering complex commerce solutions from architecture and design through production launch. \n

• Strong hands-on development experience with Java, C#, TypeScript/JavaScript, or comparable technologies. \n

• Deep understanding of API-first, headless, and composable commerce architectures. \n

• Experience with service-oriented and event-driven architectures, including synchronous and asynchronous integrations. \n

• Practical experience with enterprise commerce platforms and capabilities including catalogs, pricing, carts, checkout, and order lifecycle management. \n

• Strong integration experience using REST, GraphQL, webhooks, messaging, identity federation, and enterprise APIs. \n

• Experience designing resilient integrations involving retries, idempotency, reconciliation, and data consistency. \n

• Experience designing cloud-based solutions using Azure, AWS, or comparable cloud environments. \n

• Experience with continuous integration and deployment, infrastructure as code, automated deployments, monitoring, and observability. \n

• Working knowledge of relational and nonrelational databases, search and indexing technologies, caching, content delivery, performance testing, and distributed systems. \n

• Ability to communicate technical decisions and trade-offs clearly to engineering teams, business stakeholders, and implementation partners. \n

We are looking for someone who combines deep eCommerce architecture expertise with hands-on engineering experience and is comfortable operating in a complex enterprise environment.

• Establish reusable architectural patterns capable of supporting multiple regions, currencies, languages, catalogs, and business requirements. \n

• Break architecture into executable engineering increments while identifying dependencies, technical risks, and implementation blockers. \n

• Define requirements for security, performance, availability, resilience, accessibility, observability, and recovery. \n

• Review technical designs and deliverables produced by implementation partners to ensure alignment with architecture and engineering standards. \n

• Establish sustainable deployment, monitoring, support, and recovery patterns. \n

• Maintain current-state and target-state architecture documentation and contribute to the technical roadmap. \n

• Partner with product teams on AI-enabled commerce capabilities, including intelligent search, product recommendations, and marketplace analytics. \n
