Technical Architect

OverviewAs aTechnical Architect , you will play a pivotal role in defining, designing, and overseeing the technical architecture of our projects while maintaining strong hands-on coding capabilities. You will work acrossFrontend, Backend, DevOps, and Data Engineeringdomains, ensuring best practices, scalability, and efficiency in all solutions. You will also act as a mentor, guiding engineers at different levels while staying current with emerging technologies including AI/ML and LLM stacks.Key Responsibilities Definetechnical architectureand lead design discussions for scalable, secure, and high-performance applications Provide hands-on coding and technical expertise across the full technology stack Design and implement solutions usingJava, Python, and Node.jsecosystems Architectevent-driven systems and messaging architecturesusing Kafka and other messaging platforms Design and overseedata pipelines and data engineering solutions Collaborate with stakeholders, product managers, and development teams to translate business needs into technical solutions Drive adoption ofcloud-native, microservices, and modern architecture practices Implement and overseeCI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation, and monitoring systems Performcode reviews, design reviews, and technical auditsto ensure quality and adherence to standards Explore and integrateAI/ML capabilities and LLM-based solutionsinto existing architectures Act as amentor and technical coachfor software engineers across levels Continuously evaluate and recommend new tools, frameworks, and practices Own technical risk management and ensure alignment with project timelines and goalsRequired Skills & Experience Around15 years of IT industry experience , with at least5+ years in an architect role Strong hands-on coding capability with proven expertise in: Backend: Java with Spring Boot framework (microservices, REST APIs, Spring Cloud) Python (Django/FastAPI/Flask) Node.js (Express, NestJS) Frontend:React and Angular (mandatory), with strong JavaScript/TypeScript fundamentals Data Engineering:ETL/ELT pipelines, data warehousing, streaming architectures (Kafka, Spark) DevOps & Cloud:AWS/Azure/GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, Infrastructure-as-Code Strong knowledge ofsystem design, architecture patterns, and distributed systems Hands-on experience withdatabases(PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, Elasticsearch) Experience withmessage queuing systems and event-driven architectures Ability to design forscalability, performance, and security Strong leadership, communication, and collaboration skills Experience in mentoring and developing engineering teams Exposure to Agile/Scrum methodologyHighly Desired Willingness and enthusiasm to learn emerging technologies , particularly: LLM stacks (OpenAI, Claude, LangChain, Vector databases) AI/ML Engineering fundamentals RAG architectures and prompt engineering Experience with GraphQL and modern API design patterns Knowledge of data modeling and analytics platforms Familiarity with observability and monitoring toolsWhat We're Looking For A technical leader who codes alongside the team, not just architects from the sidelines Someone passionate about continuous learning and staying ahead of technology curves A professional who can balance architectural excellence with pragmatic delivery An individual excited about the intersection of traditional engineering and AI capabilitiesThis role offers the opportunity to shape technical direction while working with cutting-edge technologies and building next-generation solutions.Preference will be given to candidates from Kerala.
