Fullstack hands-on Architect
Job requirements
- We are seeking a hands-on Full Stack Architect who designs systems and builds them. This role owns the end-to-end architecture of cloud-native applications on the Golden Path engineering stack — frontend, backend services, APIs, data, and cloud infrastructure — while staying close to the code: writing production features, building reference implementations and proofs of concept, and setting the engineering bar through code and design reviews.
The ideal candidate is a senior engineer who grew into architecture without leaving the IDE — equally comfortable whiteboarding a distributed system and debugging a React rendering issue or a slow gRPC call. They use AI-assisted engineering tools fluently in daily work and can architect AI-enabled features where they add real value, while keeping the focus on sound, scalable, maintainable software.
Key Responsibilities
- Hands-On Engineering: Spend a significant portion of time writing production code across the stack — ReactJS/TypeScript frontends and Go, Java, Python, or Node.js (Koa) backend services; build reference implementations, starter templates, and proofs of concept that teams adopt.
- End-to-End Architecture: Own the architecture of full-stack applications — UI composition, API contracts (REST, gRPC, Thrift), service boundaries, data models, caching, and integration patterns; document trade-offs through architecture decision records (ADRs).
- Cloud-Native Design on AWS: Design and build services on AWS (ECS, Lambda, API Gateway, S3, Aurora/RDS, CloudFront, Route 53) using Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and CI/CD (CircleCI), balancing scalability, resilience, security, and cost.
