Introduction

SymphonyAI is looking for a Technical Architect who combines deep Python expertise, strong computer science fundamentals, and hands-on engineering rigor to design and build scalable, high-performance systems.

What Success Looks Like

Ability to take ambiguous problem statements and convert them into clear, executable technical plans.
Consistent delivery of high-quality, production-grade systems with strong reliability and performance.
Demonstrated impact in eliminating bottlenecks, improving system efficiency, and scaling platforms.
Strong influence across teams through transparent technical communication and leadership.

Responsibilities

Architecture & System Design :

Design scalable, fault-tolerant distributed systems using microservices architecture.
Ensure systems are built with observability, resiliency, and extensibility by design.

Hands-on Development (Python-first)

Actively contribute to core codebases with high-quality, maintainable Python code.
Lead by example in coding standards, debugging, and performance optimization.
Build reusable frameworks,



libraries, and internal platforms.

Problem Solving & Performance Engineering

Identify and resolve system bottlenecks (CPU, memory, I/O, network, DB).
Drive performance tuning, load testing, and scalability improvements.
Establish benchmarks and SLO-driven engineering practices.
Lead root cause analysis (RCA) and implement long-term fixes.
Design guardrails to prevent 99% of known failure modes.
Improve observability (metrics, logs, traces) across systems.

Technical Leadership & Mentorship

Lead a team of senior, mid-level, and junior engineers.
Mentor engineers in system design, coding best practices.
Raise the overall engineering bar across teams.

Cross-Team Collaboration

Work effectively with frontend, backend, data, and platform teams.
Ensure features are implemented end-to-end in a cohesive and scalable manner.
Communicate technical concepts clearly to both engineers and leadership.
