Staff Software Architect
ArionkoderArionkoder is a Product Development company that helps companies scale their impact by crafting digital solutions.
Role Description We're hiring a Staff Software Architect to own the end-to-end design of a complex software product. The role spans the full architectural surface — data, services, integrations, infrastructure, security, reliability — and sits at the intersection of engineering, product, and the customer environments the product runs inside. The right person treats constraints like multi-tenancy, legacy interoperability, cost, and regulatory exposure as first-class design inputs, not afterthoughts. This is a hands-on architect role, not a diagrams-and-handoffs role — but diagrams and decision records are part of the job. You communicate architecture clearly through C4 models (context, container, component) and lightweight ADRs that capture decisions, context, and trade-offs so the team doesn't re-litigate them six months later. You also write code on critical paths, review designs and PRs, take ownership when the parts you designed misbehave in production, and push back when a feature request would compromise the architecture. You're equally comfortable working in the abstract (RFCs, system models, trade-off analysis) and in the concrete (debugging a memory leak, profiling a hot path, rewriting an integration that's silently drifting). You're comfortable in ambiguity. You can join a product mid-flight, form a sharp view of what's load-bearing and what's incidental, and propose a direction the team can rally behind. You treat AI-augmented engineering as a force multiplier you wield with judgment — neither a gimmick nor a substitute for thinking. Qualifications - 10+ years building production distributed systems, with at least 3 years in a Staff, Principal, or Architect role - Track record of owning architectural decisions end-to-end and being on the hook when they fail — not just authoring RFCs - Demonstrated fluency communicating architecture through C4 models and capturing decisions in ADRs (or equivalent decision-record discipline) - Strong fluency in JavaScript / TypeScript and Python; comfortable reading and contributing across multiple languages and stacks - Deep AWS architecture expertise — has designed and operated non-trivial multi-tenant systems across compute (ECS/EKS/Lambda), data (RDS, DynamoDB, S3), networking (VPC, ALB, PrivateLink), and identity (IAM, KMS, Secrets Manager); able to reason about cost, blast radius, and failure modes at the service level, not just the diagram level - Production experience with Infrastructure as Code — Terraform, CloudFormation/CDK, or Pulumi - Fluent in modern CI/CD practice — has designed and owned pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CodePipeline, or equivalent) covering build, test, security scanning, and progressive deployment - Deep GitHub fluency — branching strategies, PR workflows, code ownership, GitHub Actions, and the org-level controls that matter at scale (rulesets, environments, secrets, OIDC to cloud) - Comfortable working in ambiguity, defining contracts where none exist, and shipping under reliability pressure - C1 English; comfortable in fully distributed teams Requirements - Hands-on production experience with at least one AI/LLM-powered system, including a real understanding of retrieval, prompt/context design, cost, and failure modes - Experience integrating with at least three meaningful third-party platforms in production (e.g. Slack, GitHub, Atlassian, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Stripe, IDE extensions, MCP servers) - AWS certifications at the Professional or Specialty level (Solutions Architect Professional, DevOps Engineer Professional, Security Specialty) - Experience with progressive delivery patterns — blue/green, canary, feature flags — in production at scale Benefits - 💵 Competitive USD salary - 🌴 20 business days of vacation per year + 6 National holidays - 🐣 Family Leave - 💻 A dynamic remote work culture. You can work from Anywhere! - 🚀 An entrepreneurial environment.
