• Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Dynatrace

• Patterns: Microservices, CQRS, Event Sourcing, Saga, DDD, API Gateway (Kong/APIM)
Key Responsibilities

• Own the platform reference architecture for all SCF modules (payables, receivables, dynamic discounting).

• Lead HLD/LLD reviews across squads; enforce architecture guardrails and tech-debt governance.

• Design high-throughput pipelines (Spark + Kafka) processing >20M invoices/day at <2 s SLA.

• Drive Azure cloud strategy: AKS sizing, Terraform modules, Helm packaging, multi-region HA.

• Translate business rules (multi-funder allocation, FX settlement, dynamic discount pricing) into technical design.

• Establish CI/CD, coding, and security-by-design standards across the engineering org.

• Mentor Team Leads and senior developers; run architecture knowledge-sharing sessions.
Requirements

• 12+ yrs software engineering; 4+ yrs hands-on architect on large-scale fintech/banking platforms.

• Proven event-driven, cloud-native microservices design at millions of financial transactions/day.

• Strong Java/Spring Boot; Scala/Akka or Python for data processing.

• Production Kubernetes, Helm, Terraform, and CI/CD.
