Job Description Designs and ensures adherence to his/her recommended IT system landscape for optimal data flow, operational stability and avoidance of risks among systems supporting internal business processes.Key ResponsibilitiesOwn end-to-end architecture across mobile (iOS/Android), backend microservices, and integration layersTranslate product requirements into scalable, secure, and high-performance solutionsDefine and enforce API standards, integration patterns, and data flowsDrive non-functional requirements: scalability, resiliency, performance, observability, and securityLead architecture and design reviews, actively challenging weak or incomplete solutionsEnsure system readiness for high-traffic events (promos, campaigns, peak loads)Design for failure by default (timeouts, retries, circuit breakers, fallbacks)Collaborate with product, UX, engineering, and external partners to align solutionsIdentify and mitigate technical risks early, before they impact deliveryGuide teams in adopting modern architecture patterns (microservices, event-driven, cloud-native)Hands-on Architecture Validation (Non-Negotiable)Translate architecture into working code, prototypes, or technical spikesBuild reference implementations to validate: API contracts, Integration patterns (REST, async messaging), Performance assumptions, Failure handling (retry, timeout, fallback strategies)Capable of implementing a minimal but production-realistic service or APIDemonstrates how architecture decisions impact actual code structure and runtime behaviorExpected to spend 10–20% of time on hands-on validation, prototyping, or deep technical reviewsCore Qualifications Proven experience in solutions architecture for high-scale digital platforms (telco, fintech, e-commerce, or similar)Deep expertise in: Microservices and API-first design, System integration (REST, event-driven, messaging systems such as Kafka or Pub/Sub), Cloud platforms (GCP preferred; AWS acceptable), Familiarity or hands-on experience with Node.js and MongoDBDemonstrated ability to design for: High concurrency and traffic spikes, Resiliency and fault tolerance, Performance optimization at scaleHands-on experience with: Mobile architectures (native + hybrid such as KMP, WebView, React Native), Backend systems and integration layersStrong understanding of security principles (authentication, authorization, secure APIs)Proven ability to back architecture decisions with working code, prototypes, or technical spikesPreferred QualificationsExperience in telco or subscription-based platforms (e.g., data wallets, billing, entitlements)Familiarity with real-time streaming platforms (Kafka, Pub/Sub)Experience with feature flags, personalization, or segmentation systemsKnowledge of observability practices (logging, metrics, tracing)Experience with CI/CD pipelines and release strategies (blue-green, canary deployments)Leadership & Ways of WorkingChallenges assumptions and pushes back on weak requirements and designsCommunicates clearly and directly—no reliance on buzzwords or vague abstractionsMakes sound decisions with incomplete information and tight timelinesTakes ownership of outcomes, not just architecture artifactsWorks effectively across cross-functional teams and external partnersHIRING REQUIREMENTS:Work ExperienceMinimum 5–8 years of experience in software engineering, system design, or solutions architectureAt least 3 years in a Solutions Architect or equivalent role for high-scale digital platformsProven experience designing and delivering end-to-end systems across mobile, backend, and integrationsExperience in industries such as telco, fintech, e-commerce, or other high-traffic digital platformsHands-on involvement in production systems handling high concurrency and traffic spikesLevel of KnowledgeStrong expertise in:Microservices architecture and API-first designSystem integration patterns (REST, event-driven, messaging systems)Cloud platforms (GCP preferred; AWS also acceptable)Solid understanding of:Scalability, resiliency, and performance engineeringSecurity principles (authentication, authorization, secure APIs)Observability (logging, monitoring, tracing)Hands-on familiarity with:Mobile app architectures (native and hybrid: KMP, WebView, React Native)Backend technologies and integration layersExperience or familiarity with Node.js and MongoDB is a plusBachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience)Equal Opportunity EmployerGlobe’s hiring process promotes equal opportunity to applicants, Any form of discrimination is not tolerated throughout the entire employee lifecycle, including the hiring process such as in posting vacancies, selecting, and interviewing applicants.Globe’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Policy Commitment can be accessed hereMake Your Passion Part of Your Profession.
