  • Guide engineering teams and resolve complex technical challenges
  • Evaluate and recommend tools, frameworks and cloud services
  • Mentor senior engineers and tech leads
Required Skills
  • 10+ years in software engineering with 3+ years in architecture/lead role
  • Strong hands-on expertise in:
    • Java
    • Spring Boot
    • Microservices & API-driven architecture
  • Experience designing distributed, enterprise-scale systems
  • Strong experience with Cloud (AWS / Azure / GCP)
  • Solid understanding of:
    • Architecture patterns
    • System design tradeoffs
    • CI/CD and DevOps practices
  • Strong communication - must be able to defend architecture decisions
Preferred Experience
  • Healthcare domain (strongly preferred)
  • Experience with event-driven architecture (Kafka / Pub-Sub)
  • Knowledge of:
    • Observability
    • Performance tuning
    • Production readiness
  • Experience in cloud migration or modernization programs
