Own the end-to-end software architecture and SDLC design for mission-critical, cloud-first systems. Partner with business and engineering to translate outcomes into secure, scalable, and cost-effective solutions-fitting the realities of oil & gas (EPCI) environments and integrations with OT/IoT where needed.Job DescriptionArchitect the SDLC: Define and continuously improve the delivery lifecycle (from idea → design → build → test → release → operate). Establish guardrails, review gates, and automated quality checks.Design solutions & guide delivery: Translate business goals and non-functional requirements (availability, performance, security, cost) into reference architectures and implementation blueprints.Set engineering standards: Define coding, testing, security, observability, and documentation best practices. Drive adoption via patterns, templates, and platform capabilities.Architecture governance: Maintain decision records (ADRs), review designs, manage tech debt, and ensure alignment with enterprise standards and regulatory constraints.Cloud architecture (primary): Lead design on AWS, covering networking, identity, data, security, reliability, cost optimization, and automation (IaC).Data & integration: Specify APIs/events/contracts; ensure interoperability across services, data platforms, and external/OT systems. Promote API-first and event-driven designs where beneficial.Security by design: Bake in threat modeling, zero-trust principles, IAM/roles, secrets management, data protection, and secure SDLC practices from the start.DevOps/Platform collaboration: Partner with DevOps/TestOps to shape CI/CD, test automation, release orchestration, and production readiness (SLOs, runbooks, incident playbooks).Stakeholder engagement: Facilitate decisions with product, domain experts, and operations; make trade-offs explicit; communicate clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.Mentor & lead by influence: Grow the architecture community of practice, coach engineers, and model a pragmatic, humble, outcome-oriented approach.You are meant for this job if:5+ years in software architecture/technical leadership (within 7-10+ years total in software), including designing cloud solutions in production.Proven record designing secure, resilient, and observable systems with clear SLOs, error budgets, and cost controls.Hands-on with AWS (preferred) across core services (compute, networking, storage, IAM), infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform/CloudFormation), and CI/CD.Strong in SDLC design and modern engineering practices: trunk-based development, automated testing (unit/integration/e2e/perf/security), code quality, and release strategies.API and integration expertise: REST/OpenAPI, event streaming, and service decomposition; experience with contract testing and backward compatibility.Ability to create architecture diagrams, models and maintain architecture decision records.Excellent communication; skilled at simplifying complexity, leading workshops, and aligning diverse stakeholders.Core skills and toolsLanguages/frameworks: comfortable reading/writing some of the modern programming languages Java/Kotlin, Python, TypeScript, and backend frameworks (e.g., Spring Boot, Node). (you'll guide patterns more than churn features.)Tooling: Git, code review practices, CI/CD (GitHub Actions), quality gates (e.g., SonarQube), IaC (Terraform/CloudFormation/CDK), containerization (Docker/Kubernetes).Testing: contract testing, e2e, performance, security test automation; test strategies aligned to risk.Observability: logging, metrics, tracing, run-time diagnostics, and reliability patterns.SkillsAdditional skillsExperience in oil & gas or industrial/EPCI contexts, including constraints of distributed/remote sites, intermittently connected networks, and HSE/regulatory considerations.OT/IoT awareness: edge computing patterns; historian/SCADA integrations (e.g., PI System/OPC UA/MQTT); network segmentation and ICS/OT security principles (e.g., ISA/IEC 62443).Data platforms (streaming, time-series, data lakes) and event-driven architectures.Multi-cloud or hybrid/on-prem integrations and migration/modernization programs.Leadership CompetenciesBeing a global leader in the energy industry requires an inclusive and diverse environment.
