Role Overview
We are looking for a seasoned Technical Architect to lead engineering excellence across our web application stack. This is a hands-on architectural leadership role, you will own end-to-end technical quality, drive scalable SaaS product design, champion AI-native development practices, and enable developer productivity through intelligent tooling and automation. You will work closely with engineering leadership, product teams, and cross-functional stakeholders to deliver high-impact solutions in a fast-paced, customer-obsessed environment.
Roles & Responsibilities
Architectural Leadership
- Own architectural decisions for web applications, APIs, and microservices, in consultation with engineering leadership, ensuring scalability, reliability, and maintainability.
- Drive end-to-end technical quality: code standards, design reviews, NFR (non-functional requirements) definition, and realization from architecture through deployment.
- Lead architecture definition for SaaS products, including multi-tenancy, extensibility, and platform scalability, ensuring alignment with long-term product roadmap.
- Identify and mitigate technical risks early; escalate proactively to ensure sprint and delivery commitments are protected.
- Lead the design and scaling of SaaS applications, driving best practices around API design, service decomposition, data modelling, and platform architecture.
- Build and scale large-scale, data-driven products typical of analytics and competitive intelligence domains, with a focus on performance, reliability, and domain-specific use case delivery.
- Ensure production readiness: capacity planning, performance tuning, observability, and incident response readiness for all solutions delivered.
AI-Native Development (Mandatory)
- Embed, drive adoption AI-native practices across the full engineering lifecycle, from technical design and solution architecture to code generation, review, quality assurance and deployment.
- Champion the use of AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot) as standard practice within the team, not optional augmentation.
- Exposure to Designing and building functional agents and developer productivity agents to automate repetitive engineering tasks, including health checks, auto-healing workflows, and support use cases for platform components.

- Experience building large-scale, data-driven products in analytics or competitive intelligence domains, domain-specific data apps, insight platforms, or similar.
AI-Native & Productivity Engineering (Mandatory)
- Hands-on, production-grade experience with AI-assisted development tools — Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or equivalent — across design, development, and review workflows.
- Proven experience building or operating developer productivity agents for recurring engineering tasks: health checks, auto-healing, platform support automation.
- Familiarity with agent frameworks, prompt engineering, LLM orchestration, and integrating AI tooling into CI/CD and developer workflows.
Technical Stack
- Languages: Strong proficiency in Python and related frameworks.
- Databases: Strong SQL, NoSQL exposure - including index management, partitioning, system catalogs, and SQL query tuning.
- DevOps: Docker, Kubernetes
- Data: Experience with data pipelines, distributed message queues, and stream processing.
- Cloud: Experience creating and managing cloud infrastructure for application deployment and scale.
- Documentation: Proficient in producing Architecture Views, Technology Architecture Blueprints, and Design Specifications.
What We Value
- Inclusive, roll-up-your-sleeves work ethic willing to participate in daily workloads when it matters.
- Eagerness to learn, experiment, and adopt new technologies especially at the intersection of AI and software engineering.
- Clear, structured communicator, able to translate complex technical decisions for both engineering and business stakeholders.
- A builder's mindset: you think in systems, care about outcomes, and take pride in what ships.
