• Provide technical leadership during architecture and design discussions.

• Align technical solutions with business requirements and stakeholder expectations.

• Create and maintain architecture documentation, including solution diagrams, ADRs, roadmaps, and non-functional requirements.

• Work with engineering and DevOps teams to establish deployment patterns, CI/CD standards, and operational readiness.

• Ensure compliance with enterprise security and governance standards.

MUST HAVE

• 5+ years of experience in Solution Architecture, System Architecture, or a senior engineering role with significant architectural ownership.

• Proven experience designing and delivering large-scale distributed systems.

• Strong expertise in workload automation solutions.

• Hands-on or architectural-level experience with Kubernetes, Kafka, and Apache Airflow or comparable workflow orchestration platforms

• Strong understanding of microservices architectures, APIs, and distributed systems design.

• Solid knowledge of architecture best practices, including security-by-design, resiliency, performance, scalability, and maintainability.

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills within global environments.

• Ability to translate business objectives into practical technical solutions and guide implementation teams.

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience with DevOps practices, including CI/CD, automation, and Infrastructure as Code concepts.
