- Knowledge of modern authentication and authorization protocols like OAuth, JWT, and OpenID Connect.
- Experience in leading large-scale enterprise projects.
Key Responsibilities
- Architectural Design: Design and architect microservices-based systems that leverage React for the front-end and .NET for the backend. Ensure the architecture is scalable, secure, and meets the business requirements.
- Technology Strategy: Define and drive the technology roadmap for the microservices platform. Stay up to date with emerging technologies and best practices in the microservices, front-end, and back-end development ecosystems.
- System Integration: Design and oversee the integration of various services, ensuring seamless communication between microservices, and the front-end.
- Performance Optimization: Identify and address performance bottlenecks in the system. Optimize the architecture for speed, scalability, and reliability.
- Security: Implement security best practices across the architecture, ensuring data protection and compliance with relevant regulations.
- Technical Leadership: Provide technical guidance and mentorship to development teams. Review and approve design and code to ensure adherence to architectural standards.
- Collaboration: Work closely with product managers, UX/UI designers, developers, and other stakeholders to translate business requirements into technical solutions.
- Documentation: Create and maintain comprehensive architectural documentation, including system designs, data flows, and deployment plans.
- Continuous Improvement: Advocate for and implement continuous improvement practices, including automated testing, continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD), and DevOps methodologies.
