Job Summary :

Advantal Technologies is seeking an experienced and skilled Solution Architect with 8+ years of expertise in designing, architecting, and delivering large-scale, high-traffic systems using technologies such as Java, Angular/React, MySQL, MongoDB, and cloud platforms. As a Solution Architect, you will play a pivotal role in defining the architecture and technology strategy for scalable, high-performance applications, ensuring they are optimized for high traffic volumes, security, and reliability.

Key Responsibilities :

Architecture Design & Solutioning :

- Lead the design and architecture of large-scale systems and enterprise-level applications utilizing Java, Angular/React, MySQL, and MongoDB.

- Ensure solutions are highly scalable, fault-tolerant, and capable of handling high-volume traffic (millions of requests).

- Design microservices architectures and facilitate integration with relational (MySQL) and NoSQL databases (MongoDB) for high-performance data management.

- Design APIs (RESTful, GraphQL) to ensure smooth communication between front-end (Angular/React) and back-end systems, minimizing latency and optimizing and Scalability :

- Architect solutions capable of supporting millions of concurrent users while ensuring consistent performance, availability, and resilience.

- Develop strategies to manage large-scale data across distributed databases (MySQL and MongoDB) with optimized queries and indexing for performance.

- Oversee the implementation of auto-scaling, load balancing, and caching mechanisms to ensure smooth scaling under varying traffic conditions.

- Collaborate with the infrastructure team to design and implement cloud-based solutions (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud) for scalability and Technical Leadership :

- Provide technical leadership and mentor development teams on best practices, design patterns, and effective use of technologies like Java, Angular/React, MySQL, MongoDB, and cloud services.

- Evaluate and select technology stacks and frameworks (e.g., Spring Boot for Java, Angular/React for frontend, MySQL/MongoDB for backend data storage).

- Ensure adherence to coding standards, security protocols, and performance optimization techniques in solution delivery.

Stakeholder Collaboration :

- Work closely with business analysts, product owners, and client stakeholders to understand the functional and non-functional system requirements.

- Align technical solutions with business objectives, focusing on performance, scalability, and user experience.

- Provide regular updates and technical documentation to project managers and stakeholders on solution status, risks, and mitigation Optimization & Monitoring :

- Implement monitoring and logging systems to proactively identify and mitigate performance bottlenecks and failures.

- Optimize database performance (MySQL and MongoDB) by fine-tuning queries, indexing strategies, and implementing data partitioning techniques.

- Utilize tools like Prometheus, Grafana, or other monitoring solutions to ensure high-traffic applications run smoothly and efficiently.

Cloud, DevOps, and CI/CD Integration :

- Design cloud-native solutions leveraging cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) for scalable and cost-effective solutions.

- Collaborate with DevOps teams to implement automated CI/CD pipelines for streamlined delivery and faster time to market.

- Use containerization tools (Docker and Kubernetes) to deploy and manage applications in a microservices environment.

Security & Compliance :

- Ensure solutions adhere to industry security best practices, securing APIs, authentication, and authorization (OAuth, JWT, etc.).

- Collaborate with security teams to implement data encryption, secure communication channels, and vulnerability assessments to comply with industry regulations.

Required Skills & Experience :

Experience :

- 8+ years of experience in Solution Architecture, designing large-scale, high-traffic web applications, with expertise in Java, Angular/React, MySQL, and MongoDB.

- Proven experience designing systems that handle millions of concurrent users while maintaining performance at scale.

- Expertise in architecting microservices-based systems and high-performance APIs.

- Strong experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and containerization tools (Docker, Kubernetes).

Technical Skills :

Backend : Proficient in Java, Spring Boot, and other technologies for building scalable back-end systems.

Frontend : Experience with Angular or React for building rich, high-performance web : In-depth knowledge of MySQL (relational) and MongoDB (NoSQL), including complex database schemas and query & Performance : Expertise in high-traffic systems, implementing load balancing, caching, and auto-scaling solutions.

API Design : Strong experience designing and implementing RESTful APIs and GraphQL APIs.

Cloud Architecture : Experience in building cloud-native applications and leveraging cloud services for scalability, high availability, and disaster recovery.

Tools : Familiarity with CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI) and monitoring tools (Prometheus, Grafana).

Soft Skills :

- Strong communication skills to engage with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

- Problem-solving mindset, capable of architecting complex solutions to meet business and technical requirements.

- Leadership and mentoring experience, with the ability to guide teams and ensure technical Qualifications :

- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

- Relevant industry certifications (e.g., AWS Certified Solutions Architect, Google Cloud Professional Architect) are a plus.

Preferred Skills :

- Experience with Kubernetes for orchestrating microservices.

- Familiarity with event-driven architectures (Kafka, RabbitMQ) for messaging systems.

- Knowledge of AI/ML implementations for large-scale systems (desirable).
