Platform Architect

The role

The Platform Architect will own version engineering and module governance architecture. You will design systems to ensure reproducible deployments and manage dependencies for a modular financial cloud platform.

What you will do

• Design the version set model with version compatibility matrices and automatic constraint solving
• Architect reproducible build pipelines with hermetic build environments and SLSA Level 3+ provenance
• Build and maintain the live dependency graph spanning 2000+ services
• Design the monorepo and package ownership governance model
• Architect change impact analysis systems to compute affected modules, sites, and tests
• Design the GitOps-driven multi-site deployment model
• Architect the four-layer testing framework

Required qualifications

• 10+ years in large-scale distributed systems / platform infrastructure
• Deep expertise in build systems and dependency management at scale: Bazel, Buck, Pants, Nx, or equivalent (1000+ packages)
• Production experience with reproducible build engineering: content-addressable storage, hermetic builds, deterministic CI, artifact provenance (SLSA)
• Experience building dependency graph tooling: static/runtime dependency analysis, impact computation, selective testing
• Strong background in semantic versioning governance across large service fleets: version resolution, compatibility constraints, lockfile-style pinning
• Experience with API contract evolution: protobuf/gRPC versioning, schema evolution strategies, contract testing
• Experience with multi-region/multi-tenant platform architectures serving regulated workloads
• Track record of migrating monolithic systems to modular architectures without business disruption

Nice to have

• Experience with Amazon's internal VersionSet / Brazil build system / Apollo deployment, or similar systems at Google (Blaze/Bazel), Meta (Buck/Configerator)
• Background at Stripe or Adyen — multi-country financial platform with compliance parameterization
