Principal Enterprise Systems Architect

Focus: Business Process Automation, Compliance, and Internal Efficiency 

• Mindset: Efficiency-Obsessed and ROI Steward. You view internal systems as drivers of P&L efficiency. You are the Technical Steward of the internal integration platform.

• Accountability: Solely accountable for the technical reliability and integration health of the HR, Finance, and other internal operational systems. Technical failure that costs labor time or risks compliance is your responsibility. 

 
Core Responsibilities: 

• Technical Steward of Integrations: Act as the Technical Steward of the internal enterprise platform, designing and building robust, secure, and fully auditable data integration services (APIs and ETL) between the core internal systems and the central Memory Data Hub.
• Player-Coach Execution: Act as the Player-Coach, personally coding the most complex system integration and automation logic, while mentoring the team on technical standards for enterprise systems.

• Process Automation Codification: Partner with the Revenue Engineer to translate redesigned internal processes into scalable, codified software features (e.g., automated expense validation, payroll data sync).

• Compliance Automation: Build technical controls that automatically enforce key regulatory and internal compliance rules within the systems, reducing manual audit risk and time.

Primary Outcome KPI:  

• Internal Systems Integration Health: The percentage completion of required systems and data integrations between core enterprise systems (HRIS ↔ Finance ↔ Memory). 
  Goal: Achieve Internal Systems Integration Health at 99.0%  

Qualifications:  

• Experience:  8+ years of professional experience in software engineering, with at least 3+ years in a senior/technical leadership role (e.g., Staff Engineer, Team Lead).  
• Technical Stewardship: Proven track record as a Player-Coach: both hands-on coding of core systems and successful technical mentorship of engineering teams.  
• Domain Expertise: Deep, specific expertise in the relevant domain's core technology (C#, React JS, Azure, Cloud)   
• Scalability & Quality: Demonstrated ability to design and deliver high-volume, mission-critical systems with a relentless focus on stability, measured by error rates and uptime.  
• Mindset: Strong adherence to First Principles thinking; proven ability to avoid premature optimization while building for long-term scalability and technical elegance.
