Description

  • Own end-to-end technology outcomes and architecture within a major platform domain.
  • Co-author platform strategy with the engineering lead and make architectural decisions relied on by other teams.
  • Design and operate shared services, identity foundations, developer tooling, and reliability standards across the engineering organization.
  • Run design reviews and provide a second pair of eyes on architecture decisions across the company.
  • Mentor engineers through 1:1s, pairing, training, and guidance on harder technical problems.
  • Build automation and platform improvements such as release process automation, developer machine setup, and internal tooling.
  • Work on modernizing the monolith, including clean architecture upgrades and internal structure improvements.
  • Help shape shared AI tooling and agent workflows so teams can work faster with less human intervention.
  • Write architecture decisions, design docs, prompts, and post-incident learnings to support alignment and async collaboration.
  • Drive simplification so the platform becomes smaller, clearer, and more automated over time.

Requirements

  • Experience as a Principal engineer or senior-most engineer on a team, or as a solution architect returning to hands-on engineering.
  • Proven experience making architectural decisions at scale and living with the consequences.
  • Strong application engineering experience in demanding production environments.
  • Ability to help move a codebase toward domain-driven design.
  • Very strong working knowledge of C# and .NET.
  • Working familiarity with Python and TypeScript.
  • Comfort working with a monolith and modernizing it into a modular monolith with better internal structure.
  • Experience moving business logic out of stored procedures and into application code.
  • Ability to evaluate database and cloud technology choices.
  • Strong judgment, taste, vision, context, agency, and ownership.
  • Ability to recognize high-quality AI-generated output and distinguish it from merely acceptable work.
  • Must be comfortable writing design docs and architecture decisions as part of day-to-day work.

Benefits

  • Remote-first role based in New Zealand.
  • Flexible async working practices, including async standups by default.
  • Protected focus time for deep work, with meetings kept purposeful.
  • Regular informal team connection time, including twice-weekly 3 o'clock Smoko.
  • A hands-on manager who emphasizes kindness, empathy, learning, and direct feedback.
  • Deep investment in training, mentoring, and growth opportunities.
  • Opportunity to be sponsored and to sponsor others as you grow in the role.
