+ Evaluate and recommend system solutions, balancing custom development with third‑party and platform capabilities.

+ Collaborate with solution architects to define cross‑team architectural strategies and integration approaches.

+ Provide technical leadership and mentorship to development teams, supporting clean architecture and maintainable codebases.

+ Participate in agile ceremonies, including sprint planning, backlog refinement, and retrospectives.

+ Promote secure, performant, and resilient application designs that meet quality and compliance expectations.

+ Monitor, assess, and reduce technical debt to ensure long‑term sustainability of applications.

+ Create and maintain architectural diagrams, technical documentation, and solution blueprints.


Desired Competencies:


+ Technical / Functional Expertise: You apply the required technical or professional knowledge to perform your role effectively and stay current within your area of expertise.

+ Critical Thinking: You analyze information objectively, evaluate options, and apply sound judgment to solve problems and make informed decisions.

+ Collaboration: You work effectively with others across functions and levels, contributing to shared goals while respecting different perspectives.


Qualifications:


+ Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.

+ Minimum of 10 years of experience in web application development using C#, ASP.NET, and related frameworks.

+ Minimum of 2 years of experience in an Application Architect role.

+ Proven experience designing and delivering cloud‑native applications on Microsoft Azure.

+ Strong understanding of software architecture patterns and secure application design principles.

+ Proficiency in relational database design and development using SQL Server.

+ Experience with modern frontend frameworks such as Angular and JavaScript/TypeScript.

+ Experience working in agile development environments.

+ Remote‑based role with travel to Polaris locations based on business need.

+ This position is not eligible for sponsorship.
