We are seeking a hands-on technical architect to design and deliver highly scalable, reliable, secure, and fault-tolerant enterprise systems for IOT with an AI first mindset. This role combines deep Java engineering expertise with practical architecture ownership and day-to-day leadership of technical staff. The ideal candidate can write production-quality code, guide design decisions, remove delivery blockers, and raise the engineering bar across the team.
This is not a pure advisory architecture role. The expectation is strong hands-on development ownership combined with technical leadership.
What Drives Success- AI-first engineering mindset with hands-on ability to rapidly prototype and productionize solutions using modern AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Git Hub Copilot, and similar systems
- Expert hands-on Java engineering depth, including JVM internals, compiler behavior, concurrency, memory management, and performance optimization
- Proven ability to design highly scalable, reliable, secure, and fault-tolerant enterprise platforms with clear trade-off decisions within IoT platforms, Building Management Systems, connected equipment, telemetry environments
- Lead from the front by setting technical direction, reviewing designs and code, mentoring engineers, and unblocking complex delivery challenges
- Delivery-focused technical leadership with accountability for architecture quality, engineering execution, and production readiness
Job Duties- Architecture & System Design
- Design scalable, reliable, secure, and fault-tolerant enterprise systems across distributed applications, integration, data, and cloud-native layers.
- Define architecture patterns for AI-native capabilities, APIs, event-driven services, observability, resiliency, and performance at enterprise scale.
- Evaluate technology options and define pragmatic technical direction across cloud, APIs, event-driven services, integrations, observability, and automation.
- Technical Leadership & Delivery
- Spend 50%+ of time on hands-on technical work including coding, design reviews, debugging, performance tuning, AI-assisted development, and complex issue resolution.
- Translate business and product needs into practical architecture decisions, technical roadmaps, and delivery-ready engineering plans.
- Write production-quality code daily in Java and/or Python, while also guiding implementation across TypeScript/JavaScript, React, APIs, and distributed platform services.
- Guide engineers through complex design and implementation trade-offs while ensuring solutions remain practical, supportable, and delivery ready.
- Lead technical staff through architecture execution, sprint delivery, code reviews, quality gates, and production readiness activities.
- Partner with product owners, business stakeholders, architects, QA, DevOps, and infrastructure teams to ensure technical delivery aligns with business outcomes.
- Own technical delivery risks, remove engineering blockers, and ensure designs are implemented with measurable quality, reliability, and performance outcomes.
- Enterprise Platform & Integration Expertise
- Design enterprise-grade integration patterns across internal systems, external platforms, APIs, data pipelines, and real-time/event-driven architectures.
- Understand infrastructure layers from Kubernetes and cloud-native runtime operations to GPU inference stacks, model-serving patterns, and scalable workload deployment.
- Ensure solutions are observable, secure, resilient, cost-aware, and supportable in production environments.
- Establish strong practices across automated testing, CI/CD, observability, rollout safety, incident response, production support, and operational excellence.
- Create reusable technical patterns, reference architectures, documentation, and engineering playbooks to standardize delivery across teams.
What We Are Looking For- Bachelor's, Master's, or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology, or related technical discipline with 10+ years building and operating enterprise software
- Within 10+ years -
- 8 years of hands-on Java engineering experience with deep knowledge of JVM internals, compiler behavior, concurrency, memory management, and performance tunin
- 5+ years leading architecture across applications, platform, data, cloud-native services, APIs, integrations, and high-availability production platforms
- Demonstrated experience designing highly scalable, reliable, secure, fault-tolerant, and production-ready enterprise systems
- Strong architecture experience with microservices, APIs, event-driven architecture, integration design, DevSecOps, observability, and cloud-native engineering patterns
- Experience applying AI-native development practices, AI/ML or GenAI services, automation frameworks, and intelligent system design patterns
- Familiarity with multi-agent systems, skills, MCP integrations, agent-to-agent tooling.
- Hands-on experience building modern full-stack and platform systems using technologies such as TypeScript/JavaScript, React, Python, Go, Java, APIs, and distributed infrastructure
- Ability to leverage AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Git Hub Copilot and similar systems to improve engineering productivity and development workflows
- Proven ability to lead technical teams while remaining hands-on in design, coding, code reviews, troubleshooting, and delivery execution
- Strong judgment, communication, and cross-functional leadership skills, with the ability to prosper in unclear environments and stay highly hands-on through delivery
