Translate business needs into scalable, secure, resilient, and sustainable technical solutions. Model systems and architectures using the C4 Model, covering context, containers, components, and—when necessary—code-level details. Define architectural standards for microservices, integrations, APIs, messaging, and inter-system communication. Design cloud-native solutions considering high availability, elasticity, security, observability, and cost optimization. Support the evolution of distributed, event-driven, and reactive system architectures. Act as a bridge between business units, Product, and development teams, ensuring alignment among strategy, architecture, and implementation. Guide engineering teams in adopting technical best practices and architectural standards. Support decisions regarding technologies, frameworks, platforms, integrations, and cloud services. Assess technical impacts, risks, dependencies, trade-offs, and opportunities for improvement. Participate in technical discussions, refinements, solution discovery, and initiative planning. Support API, integration, microservice, and security standard governance. Contribute to observability, monitoring, logging, metrics, and distributed tracing strategies. **Responsibilities:** Ensure proposed solutions align with business objectives and organizational technical standards. Define scalable, resilient, secure architectures prepared for future evolution. Technically lead architecture initiatives—from conception through implementation oversight. Promote best practices in distributed architecture, microservices, integration, security, and cloud-native design. Establish guidelines for API usage, messaging, events, observability, and cloud platforms. Support legacy system modernization by proposing evolutionary and sustainable strategies. Ensure clarity in communicating architectural decisions to both technical and non-technical audiences. Serve as a technical reference for backend, infrastructure, security, and product development teams. Evaluate and document technical trade-offs, considering timeline, cost, complexity, risk, and business value. Contribute to corporate architecture standardization and evolution. Disseminate technical knowledge, best practices, and architectural standards across teams. Support identification and mitigation of technical risks, bottlenecks, architectural debt, and scalability issues. **Requirements and qualifications** Solid experience as a Solutions Architect, Software Architect, Tech Lead, or similar role. Experience designing distributed architectures and ecosystems based on microservices. Advanced knowledge of architectural patterns, system integration, and application modernization. Experience tackling eventual consistency, resilience, concurrency, scalability, and fault tolerance challenges. Experience with event-driven architecture, messaging, and Pub/Sub patterns. Practical knowledge of Apache Kafka or similar streaming and messaging technologies. Understanding of reactive systems principles and resilient architectures.
