We are looking for a Principal Cosmos DB Architect with 1015 years of experience to spearhead the data architecture for our mission-critical OCR and AI platforms. This senior leadership role requires a deep mastery of Java development and NoSQL modeling to build high-performance systems. You will act as the strategic link between data design and application logic, collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver global scalability, minimal latency, and optimized cost-efficiency.

Essential functions

Key Responsibilities

- Data Architecture Design: Lead the design and implementation of complex data models using Azure Cosmos DB (SQL/Core API), ensuring optimal partitioning and indexing strategies.

- System Optimization: Architect high-throughput, low-latency data access patterns specifically tailored for heavy-load OCR and AI processing workflows.

- Java Integration: Develop and maintain robust data access layers using Java and Spring Boot, ensuring seamless integration between our services and the database.

- Performance Engineering: Conduct performance tuning, RU (Request Unit) management, and cost-optimization audits to ensure the database scales efficiently.

- Collaboration: Partner with Backend Engineers and Platform Architects to define API contracts and cloud infrastructure requirements.

- Best Practices: Establish and document standards for NoSQL schema design, consistency levels, and disaster recovery within the Azure ecosystem.

Qualifications

Technical Requirements

- Primary Database Expertise: Extensive hands-on experience with Azure Cosmos DB,



specifically focusing on the Core (SQL) API.
