Principal Architect

Location: India (Hybrid, overlap hours with US delivery leadership)

Experience: 13+ years overall, 8+ years in architecture/technical leadership roles
Role Summary

The India-based Principal Architect owns technical execution architecture across the offshore delivery organization, translating the program's approved solution architecture (set by the US Principal Architect) into stream-level technical designs, engineering standards, and build-readiness across every functional track. This is an execution and engineering-governance leadership role, not a client-facing architecture-ownership role.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the technical build architecture for each functional stream, converting the approved solution architecture into implementable technical designs for the Solution Architect and engineering pods — independent of the final technology stack selected.
- Enforce engineering-wide standards for coding, design patterns, integration approaches,



and CI/CD across all India-based development teams.
- Lead technical design reviews for stream-level solutions before they proceed to build, ensuring consistency with the platform's global data model and security model.
- Direct and prompt AI coding agents (e.g., Claude Code or equivalent) for architecture spikes, technical validation, and build-readiness proofs before handing designs to engineering.
- Own resolution of stream-level technical defects and integration issues identified during SIT/UAT, coordinating fixes across engineering teams.
- Manage technical dependency sequencing across streams so cross-stream build work lands in the right order.
- Mentor and provide technical escalation support to the Solution Architect and Mid-Senior Engineers; act as the final internal review gate before designs are presented to the US Principal Architect.
- Own setting strategy execution (sandbox/environment seeding, data refresh ca
