The successful candidate will be responsible for developing and implementing architectural standards that prioritize system stability, scalability, and fault tolerance. This role requires a focus on high-availability design patterns to ensure uninterrupted platform performance and a full-stack strategy that emphasizes reliability and performance. The Head of Architecture will also be instrumental in team enablement, promoting a reliability-first mindset, and working closely with cross-functional teams to define an architectural roadmap that supports both immediate scalability needs and long-term growth.

The ideal candidate will have extensive experience with a range of technologies, including backend and frontend frameworks, data processing, cloud services, and a strong background in DevOps and CI/CD practices. Soft skills such as strong communication, business acumen, and the ability to collaborate and influence are also key for this leadership position.
