You will collaborate with and influence multiple teams, including application engineering, QA, DevOps, Cloud Operations, AI/ML and security compliance, ensuring product deliverables meet and exceed enterprise-grade standards for high availability, reliability, security, performance, and scalability.

Job Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with the CTO and engineering teams to define a clear technology vision and roadmap for our platform.

  • Develop strategies for both SQL and non-SQL databases, ensuring data integrity, retrieval speed, and scalability.
  • Integrate message queues and document storage solutions to enhance data flow and accessibility.
  • Contribute to the secure platform architecture for AI/ML vector-based data extraction, indexing pipelines, and semantic search.
  • Evaluate and incorporate external vendor services, iPaaS connectors, and AWS PaaS services to support the platform.
  • Create both strategic greenfield architectures and tactical remediation plans to manage and reduce technical debt.
  • Establish best practices for high availability, reliability, security, and serviceability within the platform architecture.
  • Inform and guide teams about the cost of operations of different architecture options for existing and new feature sets by defining and implementing methods and models for cost measurement, estimation, and optimization.
  • Other duties as assigned

  • Strong understanding of SQL and non-SQL database technologies, with practical experience in data modeling and optimization of transactional and batch-oriented workloads.
  • Strong understanding of serverless computing (e.g., Lambda), containers (e.g., Docker), container orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes), and when to use them.
  • Solid understanding of web application platform infrastructure components and topologies, including data caching (e.g., Redis, Valkey), reverse proxy (e.g., Nginx), load balancers, SSL certificates, and web application firewalls.
  • Experience architecting SaaS services for high availability, high reliability, high performance, scalability, and disaster recovery.
