Job Summary: Senior Software Architecture Professional to lead application architecture and delivery of critical components in a strategic program for a global manufacturing client. Key Highlights: 1. Participation in a strategic program for a global process manufacturing client. 2. Leading the target architecture and Application Rationalization. 3. Implementing essential services/APIs and integrations using modern standards. The first thing you need to know is that here, you won’t fall into routine. Radix develops solutions for companies across diverse sectors and industries. Each project features its own technologies, solutions, and timelines—and you’ll have the opportunity to engage with and experience different challenges. Beyond our presence across Brazil—with offices in Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, and Belo Horizonte—we also have subsidiaries in the United States, further consolidating Radix as a **global** company. Do you want to be part of this story and turn ideas and dreams into reality? You will work on a strategic program for a global process manufacturing client (refining/petrochemicals) to implement an enterprise Semantic Layer and Decision Traceability solution to enable analytical and Artificial Intelligence applications. The central challenge is to reduce data meaning fragmentation and application redundancy (dashboards, local apps, scripts, integrations), eliminate “multiple truths,” and build a standardized, scalable consumption layer—without disrupting operations and while respecting existing systems (ERP, historian/PIMS, CMMS/EAM, LIMS, planning, etc.). ### **Role Objective** Serve as the lead application architect, with a hands-on posture, responsible for defining the target architecture, driving Application Rationalization (consolidate/modernize/retire), and delivering critical components (APIs, services, integrations, and/or parts of applications) that consume the semantic layer and register auditable decision traces. **As a Senior Software Architecture Professional (Application Rationalization + Delivery), your responsibilities will include:** ### **1) Application Rationalization (strategy and execution)** * Conduct inventory and assessment of the application portfolio: purpose, users, criticality, costs, dependencies, risks, and adherence to standards. * Define and apply the R framework (Retain / Retire / Replace / Rehost / Refactor / Rebuild), including prioritization by value, risk, and TCO. * Identify and resolve “multiple truths” (KPIs, calculation rules, time windows, adjustments), aligning with the semantic layer and corporate governance. * Define the target application architecture by *personas* (executive, plant leadership, engineering, operations), reducing proliferation of disconnected dashboards. ### **2) Software architecture and standards (architecture + governance)** * Define semantic layer consumption standards (APIs, data products, events/streaming where applicable) and implementation guidelines. * Design non-functional requirements: security, availability, scalability, performance, observability, and compliance. * Establish engineering practices: CI/CD, code review, testing, logging/monitoring, and documentation of architectural decisions (ADRs). ### **3) Hands-on delivery (construction/industrialization)** * Implement (or directly lead implementation of) essential services/APIs and integrations for the consumption layer. * Ensure applications and services register *Decision Traces* (what/why/who/when/context/evidence/results), with an auditable trail. * Collaborate with squads to decompose architecture into executable backlogs, accelerate deliveries, and elevate technical quality. **For this role, you must have:** * Solid experience as a **S**oftware/Enterprise Architect (Senior/Expert level) in complex corporate environments. * Proven experience in Application Rationalization / modernization / portfolio consolidation (practical Application Portfolio Management – APM). * Hands-on profile: recent track record developing and delivering software (APIs/services and integrations) using modern software engineering standards. * Proficiency in modern Backend ecosystems (Java/.NET/Node.js/Python) and Frontend (React/Angular/Vue, componentization, API consumption). * Experience with integration and security architectures: REST APIs, authentication/authorization (OAuth2/OIDC), IAM/SSO, RBAC/ABAC. * Familiarity with observability practices (logs, metrics, tracing) and service operations. * Ability to conduct workshops, align stakeholders (IT/OT/Engineering/Operations), and communicate decisions clearly. * Balanced profile between strategy and execution: defines the target and builds the path. * Collaborative, results-oriented, and adoption-focused technical leadership. * Fluent English (meetings and documentation in a global context). **Nice-to-have qualifications:** * Experience with data/AI platforms (e.g., Palantir Foundry/AIP, Databricks, Azure/AWS) and integration with corporate ecosystems. * Experience with “semantics-first” architectures (ontologies/knowledge graphs, data products, data contracts). * Experience with AI in production (RAG, guardrails, evaluation) and auditability/explainability requirements. * Industrial context (historian/PIMS, CMMS/EAM, alarms, reliability, operational routines). **Benefits:** * National Medical Assistance (for employee and dependents, private room) * National Dental Assistance (for employee and dependents) * Flexible Meal/Voucher Allowance * Remote Work Allowance * Birthday Day Off * Wellhub (formerly Gympass) * Extended Maternity Leave (6 months) and Paternity Leave (20 days) * Childcare Allowance for children up to 3 years old (per child) * Mental health support via Wellz * Benefits Club with discounts across various partners * Education and language course partnerships * Professional Development (Corporate University) * Partnership with coworking spaces across Brazil * Quality of Life and Well-being Program * Consulting physician for Radixer follow-up * Incentive Plans **Radix consistently ranks among the Best Companies to Work For because:** * We have committed, dedicated, curious, and innovative professionals. * Team spirit is our greatest strength. We work cooperatively and know we are together, rowing in the same direction. * We foster a diverse environment that values equity and inclusion. * Our working hours are flexible, and for nearly all projects, remote work from anywhere in Brazil is possible. * We value well-being and care for our people, offering mental health support programs, access to psychiatrists, and consulting physicians. **Interested?** **\#JoinRadix** **Job Code:** edc2
