About the Role We are seeking a Platform Architect to lead the modernization and technical evolution of a large‑scale, enterprise SaaS platform. This role is ideal for someone who thrives as both a strategic thinker and a hands‑on architect, capable of transforming legacy systems into modern, cloud‑native architectures. You will define platform direction, partner with global engineering teams, and drive the transition from monolithic applications to microservices using the Azure ecosystem and the .NET stack.

This role is the sole architect on the team initially, with the opportunity to grow into a Chief Architect role and build an architecture organization.

What You’ll Do

Lead modernization efforts moving from a monolithic architecture to modular monolith and microservices

Design and evolve multi‑tenant SaaS platforms using Azure services

Establish architecture standards across .NET/C#, Angular, SQL Server, and TypeScript

Architect distributed systems including API gateway design, event‑driven patterns, CQRS, and service orchestration

Implement performance engineering practices—profiling, load testing, and optimization

Define and maintain architecture documentation and decision records

Partner with DevOps to design CI/CD pipelines, quality gates, and IaC solutions

Lead cloud security, identity management, and compliance best practices

Collaborate closely with global engineering, data, product, and IT teams

Mentor engineering teams on architectural principles, patterns, and best practices

Evaluate and integrate emerging technologies, including AI/ML and agentic systems

What We’re Looking For

10+ years of professional software/platform engineering experience

3+ years in a current architect role (consistent, not bouncing between lead → architect → lead)

Experience with Angular for front‑end architecture alignment

Deep expertise with Azure cloud services (App Services, Functions, Service Bus, Cosmos DB, Azure SQL)

Proven experience modernizing legacy architectures into modern, cloud‑native systems

Strong understanding of SaaS architecture, multi‑tenant systems, and global user bases

Hands‑on experience with CI/CD, observability, telemetry, and automated testing strategies

Excellent communication skills—ability to work with distributed/global teams

Bonus Skills (Nice to Have)

Experience with Azure OpenAI, Microsoft Agent Framework, or generative AI systems

Architectural certification (TOGAF, Zachman, C4 Model)

Experience with event sourcing, CQRS, distributed transactions, or service mesh

Exposure to semantic technologies or knowledge graphs
