We are seeking a System Design Architect to lead the architecture, design, and evolution of modern, scalable, and resilient workflow platforms for our clients.

As a trusted technology partner for several enterprise clients, we help organizations design distributed systems that are fault-tolerant, event-driven, and cloud-native. You’ll play a key role in driving these architectural engagements — defining patterns, mentoring teams, and ensuring solutions are robust and maintainable at scale.

While direct experience with specific workflow orchestration technologies is a strong advantage, we value
system design expertise, distributed systems fundamentals, and rapid learning ability above all.


Key Responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end system design and architecture for workflow and automation platforms across client engagements.



  • Design and implement distributed, event-driven systems with high scalability, availability, and fault tolerance.



  • Define architecture blueprints, reference implementations, and best practices for workflow orchestration and stateful service design.



  • Collaborate with client engineering teams to evaluate, onboard, and scale workflow solutions.



  • Guide decisions around data consistency, reliability patterns (sagas, retries, compensation), and observability.



  • Conduct architecture reviews and provide technical governance across multiple concurrent projects.



  • Partner with internal solution teams to establish accelerators, templates, and frameworks for rapid client adoption.



  • Mentor engineers and provide architectural leadership within the organization.


Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience in software architecture, backend design, or distributed systems.



  • Proven experience designing microservice-based or event-driven architectures.



  • Deep understanding of scalability, reliability, consistency models, and system resiliency.



  • Proficiency in one or more languages such as Go, Java, Python, or TypeScript.



  • Strong understanding of messaging, streaming, and asynchronous communication (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ, Pub/Sub).



  • Experience with cloud-native infrastructure (Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD, Observability).



  • Solid background in API design, workflow modeling, or automation systems.

Nice to Have (Highly Advantageous)

  • Experience with workflow orchestration platforms or stateful orchestration frameworks (e.g., Temporal, Cadence, Airflow, Step Functions).



  • Understanding of orchestration vs. choreography, activity/task design, and failure handling patterns.



  • Experience running or optimizing workflow or event-processing clusters in production environments.

Familiarity with Kubernetes operators, service meshes, and observability stacks (Grafana, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry).
