Job Description
Senior Systems Architect (Backend / AI-Native / Not a CRUD Role)
Overview
We are looking for a senior systems architect, not a feature developer.
This role is for someone who:
. has designed systems end-to-end
. understands how to structure complex backend systems
. can work alongside AI-assisted development (not against it)
If your primary strength is writing features or following tickets, this is not the role.
What You Will Be Responsible For
Evaluating existing systems and identifying what should be: kept, restructured, rebuilt
Designing system architecture across: data flow, service boundaries, processing layers
Structuring systems that involve: multiple data inputs (APIs, documents, etc.), document ingestion and parsing, asynchronous/background processing
Defining backend patterns for: reliability, scalability, maintainability
Working in an environment where AI tools (e.g. Claude, OpenAI Codex) are actively used for execution
This is a design-first role, not a ticket-driven role.
How to Apply (Required)
Please include:
. A brief description of a system you personally designed end-to-end
. The hardest architectural decision you made in that system
. A short explanation of how you currently use AI tools in your workflow
Applications without this information will not be considered.
