About our client

Our client is an established technology company operating large-scale data centers and delivering mission-critical digital services to enterprise customers.

The company provides infrastructure, SaaS and AI-driven solutions built on its own data and cloud environment. As part of a long-term transformation, it is building a next-generation distributed platform that will serve as the core orchestration and service layer across its product portfolio.

This is a strategic greenfield initiative with long-term architectural ownership and direct impact on products used by thousands of customers.

Job description

We are looking for a Senior Software Architect who will define and drive the architecture of a multi-tenant distributed platform responsible for service lifecycle management, provisioning orchestration and usage-based billing logic.

Your responsibilities will include:
• Defining the long-term target architecture of the platform
• Structuring the system into clear domains and modular components
• Designing scalable, highly available distributed system patterns
• Defining API standards and integration contracts
• Designing event-driven communication and data flow models
• Designing the application layer responsible for provisioning and usage processing
• Collaborating closely with Product, Engineering and Infrastructure teams
• Providing architectural oversight, technical reviews and mentoring senior developers
• Ensuring long-term maintainability, performance and security

This is a software architecture role focused on platform design and technical direction. It is not an infrastructure or DevOps engineering position.

Requirements

We are looking for a Senior Software Architect with a strong engineering foundation:

• 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience
• Proven background in building and evolving production-grade systems
• Experience growing from implementation-level responsibilities into architectural ownership
• Demonstrated ability to design complex distributed systems
• Experience designing scalable, highly available APIs
• Experience with event-driven architectures and asynchronous communication
• Strong understanding of secure system design principles (IAM, RBAC, auditing, data protection)
• Experience designing transactional and analytical data models
• Ability to translate product and business requirements into sustainable technical architecture
• Engineering mindset with practical understanding of implementation trade-offs

Nice to have
• Experience integrating service provisioning or automation layers (IaC principles)
• Experience working in cloud-native environments
• Messaging systems such as Kafka, RabbitMQ or equivalent
• Multi-tenant system design
• Usage-based or subscription billing systems
• Experience collaborating with DevOps teams on CI/CD and deployment strategies

These areas describe the platform context rather than strict qualification filters.

Fluency in Czech and English (spoken and written) is required.

Offer & Terms

• Participation in the modernization and build-out of a new generation cloud and data infrastructure
• Opportunity to grow into a leading technical authority within the domain
• Work alongside a team of senior specialists and experienced architects
• Real impact on services used by thousands of enterprise customers
• 12% annual performance bonus
• Vendor-led training programs and access to leading-edge technologies
• Smaller, well-aligned team with open collaboration culture
• Hybrid working model (1–2 days per week onsite in Prague, remainder remote)
• Combination of home office flexibility and a dedicated office workspace
• Cafeteria benefits, meal allowance and onsite parking
• 5 weeks of vacation + 5 additional health days
• Access to company recreational facilities
• Company-supported accommodation option for candidates relocating to Prague

If this opportunity resonates with you, we would be glad to connect.

The recruitment process will be led by an experienced IT recruiter with hands-on technical background, ensuring a focused and meaningful discussion.
