Job Role
We are looking for a hands-on Principal Technology Architect to own the technical direction of our rating and client data platforms. This is a builder’s role, not a whiteboard-only one: you will architect systems and then roll up your sleeves to prototype, code, review, and troubleshoot alongside the team. You will translate business and research needs into pragmatic, scalable solutions, set engineering standards, evaluate and introduce new technologies — including AI — and mentor developers as the platform and team grow.
The ideal candidate has successfully led the modernization of legacy enterprise platforms while introducing AI capabilities into production systems. You possess deep expertise in software architecture, cloud technologies, and enterprise application design, with the ability to balance long-term technical strategy and hands-on implementation. You thrive in a fast-paced setting with a startup mentality, are solution-oriented and comfortable experimenting, enjoy learning new technologies,
and understand not just application design but also the underlying IT infrastructure that keeps our systems secure, reliable, and cost-effective. Above all, you have an automation-first instinct — you constantly look for manual, repetitive work to eliminate and you know the technologies that make that possible

You should be comfortable evaluating, introducing, and building hands-on with technologies like these — and recommending others where they better fit the proble
