We are seeking a highly experienced Lead Software Engineer / Cloud Architect to take on a technical ownership role over OpenEye’s large-scale, cloud-based platform - the foundation on which our engineering team delivers features to customers worldwide. Defining and implementing our technical roadmap to ensure the platform remains stable, scalable, and efficient for years to come. Leading major feature or system initiatives from concept through delivery, ensuring technical integrity and alignment with business goals. Planning and leading modernization efforts of legacy architectures - including migration from monoliths to microservices and adoption of cloud-native patterns - without disrupting ongoing product delivery. Designing frameworks, services, and infrastructure that accelerate revenue-generating feature work by our product development teams. Role and Responsibilities
Independently design and lead implementation of large-scale projects through the complete software development lifecycle. Serve as the primary technical point of contact for your team, assisting with feature design, bug resolution, and architectural decisions. Architect and implement robust, reusable frameworks, components, and tools adopted across multiple engineering teams. Anticipate technical challenges in advance, shaping roadmaps and system designs that ensure sustainability and scalability. Collaborate with Product Management and other stakeholders to align technical solutions with business goals without compromising architectural integrity. Provide mentorship to engineers at all levels - including Senior and other Lead Engineers - helping them grow technical and leadership skills. Drive company-wide technical standards, promoting best practices for code quality, testing, and maintainability. Actively participate in cross-department technical councils, working groups, and strategic planning sessions. Communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences, via design documents, presentations, and code reviews. Deliver impactful solutions that measurably increase team productivity, enhance platform capabilities, or improve product performance. Other duties as assigned. Tech Stack

Exceptional skill in designing new systems (and enhancing legacy systems) to ensure long-term stability, scalability, and maintainability. Strong experience in performance optimization, including profiling, tuning, and improving efficiency at scale. Significant exposure to "big data" challenges - designing systems capable of ingesting, processing, and storing massive volumes of data efficiently. Strong understanding of architectural design principles, scalability strategies, and data-intensive system operations. Excellent critical thinking, problem-solving, and mentoring skills. Ability to influence technical decisions through collaboration and strategic foresight. Strong quality ethic and test-first mindset. Excellent communication and teamwork skills. Perks
