We’re looking for a hands-on Software Architect who enjoys shaping architecture and shipping production code. You’ll help drive the technical direction of a large-scale microservices platform powering digital services used by customers worldwide.

This role is open to two profiles

1. Senior Java Developers with strong microservices experience and clear architectural exposure, who want to grow into a full Software Architect role.

2. Experienced Software Architects who are still hands-on and want to lead architecture while actively contributing in code.

This isn’t an “architecture-from-a-distance” role. You’ll be close to the codebase, influence engineering standards, and partner with multiple teams to build a platform that scales, technically and organizationally.

Why this role is interesting for developers

Real architectural ownership: you’ll influence patterns, platform evolution, and long-term technical decisions

Hands-on engineering: feature delivery, refactoring, reviews, and solving real production constraints

Modern stack & practices: microservices, cloud, containers, CI/CD, DevOps mindset

International product impact: work in a global environment on services with real usage and visibility

What you’ll work on

Design and evolve a microservices architecture in Java

Build and deliver new functionality (yes, you will code)

Define and spread engineering standards (clean code, testing strategy, resiliency, observability)

Lead technical discussions across teams and projects (trade-offs, scalability, reliability)

Perform code reviews and raise the bar on code quality

Translate business needs into pragmatic, scalable technical solutions

Improve CI/CD pipelines and delivery automation

Drive cloud-native improvements across containerized infrastructure

NABÍZÍME

What you get

5 weeks vacation + 6 sick days (+ extra days for long-term cooperation)

Annual bonus up to 20% of gross annual salary

Hybrid setup: flexible hours + 3 days/week home office

Company car for private use or car allowance

Multisport, meal allowance (Edenred), pension & life insurance contributions

Training & certifications support

International projects + modern technologies

Share purchase option, anniversary rewards, events & wellbeing activities

POŽADUJEME

What we’re looking for

Strong experience building enterprise-grade Java systems

Excellent Java ecosystem knowledge, ideally Spring Boot

Proven track record with microservices design and operations

Ability to balance architecture thinking with pragmatic implementation

Solid Git workflow experience (branching strategies, reviews, collaboration)

CI/CD tooling and automation experience

Containers: Docker + orchestration (Kubernetes or similar)

Cloud exposure: Azure / AWS / GCP

Strong communication, able to explain technical decisions to engineers and non-technical stakeholders

Good understanding of design patterns and modern architecture principles

Nice to have

CDN experience (ideally Akamai)

Experience with large-scale, customer-facing web platforms
