Your responsibilities Own the solution and system architecture for cross-team platform initiatives, ensuring alignment with our long-term architectural vision. Translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions, defining APIs, domain models, system interfaces, and integration concepts for our Java/Spring Boot microservices and Angular applications. Design architectures that balance scalability, resilience, security, performance, maintainability, and cost efficiency.

Define cloud infrastructure requirements together with DevOps and drive cloud-native best practices on AWS and Kubernetes. Lead architectural initiatives such as platform modernization, migrations, third-party integrations, and Proofs of Concept for emerging technologies. Evaluate technologies, frameworks, and architectural patterns to continuously evolve our technology landscape.
