Software Architect
Description:
As a Software Architect, you'll be working closely with the development, security, DevOps, and Chief Architects to design highly scalable solutions that integrate client agents and cloud services. You'll bridge the gap between high-level architecture and the implementation done by the engineering team. You'll be responsible for the overall technical direction, define the low-level design and architecture and ensure that the end-to-end solution is scalable, secure, extensible, and maintainable. You'll also be responsible for designing the interfaces, APIs, and communication protocols between services and clients. You should be able to convey your architecture decisions and tradeoffs to teams spread in multiple locations and time zones. Even though you're not expected to code on a daily basis, you should feel comfortable rolling up your sleeves as and when necessary.
