Job Description

Position Focus The Application Architect ensures that our software platform and solutions maintain interoperability and velocity across all implementation teams. In our evolving engineering culture, architecture is a shared practice focused on making "hard-to-change decisions". You will help shift our architecture from a centralized bottleneck to an interactive, "pull-based" capability, enabling developers to build polyglot services that behave as first-class citizens in our ecosystem.

Key Responsibilities

Execution & Agentic Enablement

- Design & Document: Design application services and document interfaces, patterns, and decisions with a focus on agility, performance, maintainability, and interoperability.

- Codify the Architecture: Translate conceptual solutions into codified instructions and tuned markdown files for Agentic Enablement (IDE), allowing software engineers to dynamically "pull" architectural standards into their local workflow.

- Drive Validation: Define and refine validation rules and scoring mechanisms to ensure architectural intent (e.g., correct boundaries, policy metadata) is provably reflected in runtime behavior, not just in design artifacts.

Planning & Intake Shaping

- Early Shaping:



Actively participate in the "Discover & Define" intake phase to evaluate incoming feature concepts against core solution domains. explicitly catching boundary violations before technical design hardens.

- Curate the Active State: Maintain application solution artifacts in centralized repositories, ensuring our body of knowledge reflects a single, coherent reality for both human consumers and evolving agentic systems.

Continuous Feedback & Operations

- Close the Loop: Actively participate in the Continuous Feedback Loop by translating operational realities, systemic architectural debt, and telemetry into actionable updates for our agentic instructions and platform backlogs.

- Align to Customer Value: Ensure the alignment of recent capabilities to the customer's business objectives and assist in the strategic resolution of complex, cross-domain customer issues.

Creating a Culture of Trust & Mentorship

- Distribute Capability: Foster a culture of communication by mentoring staff engineers and technical leads, helping them apply architecture principles independently without requiring direct intervention for foundational issues.

- Collaborative Problem Solving: Engage directly with implementation, product, and design teams to solve complex design problems and ensure suitable collaboration across teams servicing single, customer-focused features.
