Role description
As a Senior Software Architect, you’ll play a pivotal role in executing the technical vision behind our SaaS-based IoT platform. This is a hands-on leadership role that blends architectural oversight with direct contributions to key systems. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams and company leadership to ensure our architecture remains robust, secure, and aligned with a clear technical roadmap.
You won’t just guide from the sidelines — you’ll actively design, prototype, and build core backend components, ensuring our architecture not only looks great on paper but performs at scale in production.
