About the Role
At Techdome, software architecture goes beyond design. It involves ownership, technical leadership, and accountability for how systems perform in production.
As a Software Architect, you will design scalable, secure, and reliable systems, drive architectural decisions from concept to production, and set engineering standards for an 80+ member engineering team working across healthcare, fintech, AI, and SaaS.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead end-to-end system architecture, including system design, APIs, data models, security, scalability, observability, and cost optimization.
- Own the production performance and reliability of systems serving large user bases.
- Design secure solutions involving healthcare data, Protected Health Information (PHI), and payment workflows.
- Architect applications using the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React, Node.js) and modern cloud infrastructure.
- Work with AWS, GCP, or Azure, along with Kubernetes, CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), networking, and secrets management.
- Drive decisions on microservices, event-driven systems, integrations, and build-versus-buy strategies.
- Identify and resolve production bottlenecks across performance, scalability, and availability.
- Establish engineering standards, reference architectures, and reusable design patterns.
- Participate in coding, architecture discussions, design reviews, and code reviews.
- Mentor senior engineers and develop future technical leaders.
Required Qualifications
- 8+ years of professional software engineering experience with strong system design and architecture ownership.
- Proven production experience running a system with a minimum of 100,000 users (mandatory).
- A strong track record of identifying and solving major production bottlenecks at scale.
- Strong hands-on experience with Node.js and React; MERN stack experience preferred.
- Experience in cloud architecture using AWS, GCP, or Azure.
- Experience in healthcare, payments, fintech, banking, insurance, or other security-critical domains.
- Deep understanding of distributed systems, APIs, databases, scalability, and reliability.
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to explain and justify technical decisions.
Good to Have
- Experience with HIPAA, PHI, or PCI-DSS compliance.
- Familiarity with Stripe, Braintree, tokenization, or payment processing systems.
- Experience with microservices, event-driven architecture, and high-availability systems.
- Background in SaaS, consulting, or venture-studio environments.
- Experience with AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot.
Why Join Techdome?
- Build real products in healthcare, fintech, AI, and SaaS used by customers worldwide.
- Own architecture decisions with direct impact on production systems.
- Shape the engineering standards of an 80+ member team.
- Join a profitable, stable, product-focused organization with minimal bureaucracy.
At Techdome, architects do more than create designs. They build solutions, influence technical decisions, and take ownership of system performance in production.
