## Description

Are you an experienced Software Architect looking to shape the foundations of secure, mission-critical technology?

We are hiring on behalf of our client to find a hands-on Senior Software Architect to join its Application Department in Abu Dhabi.

This is an opportunity to lead the development of a shared software platform supporting multiple products. You will combine strategic architectural direction with practical involvement, helping product teams build modular, scalable and high-performance systems for demanding environments.

The role

As Senior Software Architect, you will:

• Research, design and lead the development of a shared software platform that can adapt across multiple products.

• Promote and implement decoupled, modular architectures that support independent development while maintaining a coherent software ecosystem.

• Champion DevOps practices, including CI/CD, containerisation and infrastructure as code, to improve development efficiency and product quality.

• Apply modern architectural approaches and cloud-native technologies to build air-gapped, low-latency and high-performance systems.

• Work closely with internal and external stakeholders to ensure technical delivery aligns with the wider strategy and product roadmap.

• Contribute to architectural and technology decisions through consensus-building and knowledge-sharing across product teams.

• Work within multidisciplinary Agile teams, applying Agile principles, methodologies and tools.

• Remain hands-on with product teams to understand the practical limitations and consequences of architectural decisions.

• Support teams in translating architectural direction into robust, maintainable software.

What you will bring

• At least eight years’ professional experience in software development.

• At least three years’ experience leading a team or providing equivalent technical leadership.

• Strong expertise in Kotlin and Java.

• Experience designing reactive and message-based architectures.

• Strong knowledge of data modelling and read/write optimisation patterns, including CQRS.

• Proficiency with relational and time-series databases.

• Experience working with Ubuntu Linux and containerisation technologies.

• Proficiency with CI/CD tools such as GitLab CI and TeamCity.

• Knowledge of actor-based frameworks such as Akka.

• Excellent analytical, problem-solving and debugging skills.

• The ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to different stakeholders.

• A flexible, practical approach and the ability to perform effectively in changing, high-pressure project environments.

• Upper-intermediate or higher written and spoken English.
