  • Communicate sophisticated concepts to non-technical stakeholders, translating them into business value and helping them understand the benefits, trade-offs and outcomes of architectural decisions.
  • Stay up-to-date with the latest industry trends and new technologies and apply this knowledge to drive innovation and continuous improvement within the software architecture.

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
  • Proven experience as a Software Architect, preferably in crafting a digital services platform.
  • Solid understanding of cloud computing platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) and on-premises infrastructure.
  • Proficiency in designing and implementing scalable and distributed systems, using microservices architecture and containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
