Solutions Architect, Azure

About WT Data Systems

Clients have the owner's cell number, and the owner still takes the occasional Saturday call. Started by a former school district network admin in 2005, the business has grown almost entirely through referrals.

The role

This is a newly created position. We're looking for someone who has built systems themselves and can still go deep in a technical review. The company is based in Melbourne, Australia. The team is spread across multiple countries. Employment is through our payroll partner in India. Salary is paid monthly in Indian rupees. You will need some overlap with Australian Eastern time in the mornings. Reliable internet and a power backup are a must.

Day to day

• Produce architecture diagrams, decision records and high-level designs.
• Estimate effort and help shape statements of work with delivery managers.
• Support presales with technical answers for RFPs and security questionnaires.
• Define integration patterns using APIs, event streaming and middleware such as MuleSoft or Azure Integration Services.
• Gather business and technical requirements and turn them into solution designs.
• Design cloud architectures on AWS, Azure or GCP that account for security, cost and availability.
• Review designs from engineering teams and flag risks early.

What we're looking for

• 3+ years in software engineering, infrastructure or consulting, with at least three in an architecture role.
• Comfortable presenting to both executives and engineers.
• Track record estimating projects and working within client budgets.
• Experience designing distributed systems, APIs and data flows.

Perks and benefits

• Performance bonus.
• Two weeks of paid leave at year end.
• Co-working space stipend.
• Flexible hours.
• Monthly internet allowance.
• Annual learning budget.
