Team and Project Context:

We are seeking a highly experienced and driven Technical Architect to play a critical role in the evolution of our platform architecture. You will be instrumental in guiding our transition towards a more distributed architecture while maintaining and optimizing our existing platform components.  This involves leveraging Domain-Driven Design (DDD), event-driven architecture, and strategic extraction of cross-cutting concerns into reusable building-blocks for newly created services.  

You will collaborate closely with a talented team of 200+ engineers, testers, and managers in a stable project environment with well-defined processes, where continuous improvement and innovation are highly valued.  The development team is primarily located in France and Poland.

Key Responsibilities and Duties:

Distributed Computing Strategy: Define and lead the implementation of Kyriba's distributed computing strategy, balancing the evolution of the existing monolith with the development of new microservices.

Domain-Driven Design (DDD): Champion DDD principles and practices to ensure a well-structured and maintainable architecture, driving the decomposition of the monolith and the design of new services.

Event-Driven Architecture: Design and implement event-driven patterns for inter-service communication, promoting loose coupling and scalability.

Microservices Architecture: Architect and guide the development of microservices, focusing on clear ownership, independent deployments, and resilience.

Cross-Cutting Concerns: Lead the extraction of platform-wide capabilities (e.g., distributed audit trail, distributed data permissioning) from the monolith into shared services.

Common Foundation Chassis: Contribute to the development and maintenance of a common foundation chassis for microservices, ensuring consistency and reducing development effort.

Collaboration and Mentorship: Work closely with engineering and product teams, providing technical guidance and mentorship on distributed systems, DDD, and microservices best practices.

Technical Leadership: Provide technical leadership and direction to the team, fostering a culture of innovation and continuous improvement.

Experience:

10+ years of software engineering experience.

5+ years of experience as a Technical Architect or in a similar role.

Proven track record of successfully leading the transition to distributed architectures in complex enterprise applications.

Deep understanding of microservices architecture, API design best practices,  DDD, and event-driven architecture.

Experience with Java and/or Python is a plus.

Skills:

Strong understanding of architectural patterns and principles.

Expertise in designing and implementing distributed systems, including considerations for scalability, resilience, security and performance.

Excellent communication and collaboration skills.

Ability to influence technical decisions and drive consensus.

Experience with modern DevOps and GitOps practices and with cloud-native technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) is a plus.
