Job Description

We are seeking a highly experienced and innovative Lead Solution Architect to drive the architectural vision and strategy of our evolving software and services platform. This role is critical in guiding the transformation of our legacy systems into modern, modular solutions that leverage AWS managed services.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in designing new cloud applications, transitioning legacy systems, and creating independent solutions that are scalable, secure, and maintainable.

Key Responsibilities:

  1. Architectural Strategy & Vision: Lead the architectural design and development of new applications and services, focusing on creating modular, API-driven solutions. Evaluate and make decisions on whether to extend existing legacy systems or develop new, independent solutions based on business requirements, technical debt, and future scalability.
  2. Technical Leadership: Provide hands-on leadership and mentorship to development teams, ensuring best practices in design, coding, testing, and deployment are followed. Drive architectural discussions and decisions, promoting a culture of innovation and technical excellence.
  3. AWS & Cloud Integration: Leverage AWS managed services to architect solutions that are cost-effective, scalable, and highly available. Design and implement API gateways, microservices, serverless functions, and other cloud-native architectures.
  4. Stakeholder Collaboration: Work closely with product managers, developers, and other stakeholders to ensure architectural alignment with business goals. Communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders, providing clear and concise arguments for architectural decisions.
  5. Legacy System Transition: Analyze existing systems and databases to identify opportunities for refactoring, re-architecting, or replacing components. Develop strategies for migrating data and functionality from legacy systems to new architectures with minimal disruption to operations.
  6. Continuous Improvement: Stay current with industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in software architecture and cloud computing. Continuously evaluate and improve existing architectures, processes, and tools to enhance efficiency, scalability, and security.

  1. Experience:
    • Minimum of 10 years of experience in software architecture, with a focus on designing and building enterprise-grade applications.

    • Strong understanding of software development life cycle (SDLC) and agile methodologies.
    • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to think strategically about long-term system evolution.
    • Proficient in programming languages such as Java, Javascript, and Python.

    • Proven ability to lead and influence cross-functional teams.
    • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to a broad audience.
    • Ability to drive change and inspire innovation within a technical team.
  4. Education:
    • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field. A Master's degree or relevant certifications (e.g., AWS Certified Solutions Architect) is a plus.
  5. Language: The candidate must be oral and written fluent in Norwegian and English.
