System Architect Platform Engineering

Change the world. Love your job.
We are seeking a highly experienced System Architect – Platform Engineering to define and drive the architecture of core platform systems that power enterprise-scale applications across hybrid environments (on-prem data centers and public cloud).

This role focuses on end-to-end system design, ensuring seamless integration across compute, storage, networking, and platform services, while delivering scalable, reliable, and high-performance infrastructure.

The ideal candidate will combine deep systems engineering expertise with architectural leadership, enabling the development of a unified, cloud-like platform.

Key Responsibilities

• Define and lead end-to-end system architecture for enterprise platform engineering, including compute, storage, networking, and platform services


• Design scalable and resilient platform systems across hybrid environments (on-prem + AWS/Azure/GCP)


• Architect and standardize core platform components, including:
  
  
  
  • Kubernetes-based platforms (OpenShift, SUSE Rancher)
  
  
  • Infrastructure services (compute, storage, networking integration)
  
  
  • API-driven and self-service platform capabilities
  
  


• Drive architecture for high-performance systems, including HPC and GPU-based workloads


• Ensure tight integration between:
  
  
  
  • Infrastructure layers (network, compute, storage)
  
  
  • Platform layers (Kubernetes, APIs, developer services)
  
  


• Define system-level design standards, reference architectures, and best practices


• Collaborate with network, platform, SRE, and application teams to ensure cohesive architecture across the stack


• Design for high availability, scalability, fault tolerance, and performance optimization


• Guide modernization efforts, transforming legacy systems into modular, distributed platform architectures


• Evaluate and adopt new technologies aligned with long-term platform strategy

Minimum Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience


• 7+ years of experience in systems architecture, platform engineering, or infrastructure engineering

Preferred Qualifications

• Strong expertise in large-scale distributed systems design


• Deep experience with compute, storage, and networking architectures in enterprise environments


• Hands-on experience with Kubernetes platforms (OpenShift, SUSE Rancher, or similar)


• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible)


• Familiarity with programming languages (Python, Go)


• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices


• Experience with observability tools (Grafana, Prometheus, Elastic/ELK)


• Strong understanding of hybrid cloud architecture patterns


• Experience designing enterprise private cloud platforms


• Knowledge of advanced data center networking (EVPN/VXLAN, SDN)


• Experience with Apache ecosystem (Kafka, Spark, or data platforms)


• Experience with public cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP)


• Understanding of API gateway, IAM, and platform integration patterns


• Exposure to GPU / AI / HPC workloads
