- Ensure delivered solutions adhere to the software architecture strategy coding standards, security guidelines, and established organizational policies and procedures
- Identify and champion process and productivity improvement strategies for the team(s)
What you bring to the role:
- Demonstrated success in an Agile development environment leveraging modern CI/CD best practices
- Experience with daily operations associated with a SAAS application running in a public cloud requiring 24/7 availability, and operating at a large data scale
- Experience managing an application containing both modern aspects, as well as legacy systems – and the ability to manage an architectural roadmap to modernize and and manage technical debt appropriately
- Experience with Lucene or Elasticsearch a plus
- Exposure to public cloud architectures and deployments, distributed system designs involving data storage, databases, streaming/queueing services, batch processing workflows, observability and monitoring best practices
- Proven ability to work cross-functionally with Product Managers, Designers, Devops Engineers
