Solutions Architect

The Product Development team is seeking a highly motivated, hands-on Solutions Architect to serve as a senior individual contributor on our architecture team. You will lead the end-to-end architectural design and technical strategy for our next generation of connected smart home products, facilitating architecture between IoT devices and cloud platforms that serve millions of users globally. 

In this pivotal role, you will define scalable, secure, and high-performing solutions that span device, cloud, data, and application layers within our Azure-centric ecosystem. Working closely with cross-functional engineering, product, and business teams, you'll shape systems that power millions of IoT devices, process trillions of datapoints, enable real-time analytics, and deliver intuitive user experiences across our connected ecosystem. 

This position requires both deep hands-on development experience and strategic formal architecture expertise. You will have felt the weight of architectural decisions through hands-on implementation while possessing the broader perspective needed to orchestrate solutions across multiple programs and portfolios. 

JOB DUTIES: 

• Architect holistic, end-to-end solutions that integrate IoT devices, mobile/web applications, APIs, and cloud platforms (primarily Azure).
• Translate complex business requirements and product concepts into scalable solution designs that meet functional, performance, security, compliance, and other non-functional requirements (NFRs).
• Define solution-level tradeoffs across our six core architecture pillars: Security, Performance, Cost, Reliability, Operations, and Developer/User Usability.
• Drive standardization of architectural development practices across the organization while de-risking future system capabilities through hands-on development of POCs and frameworks.
• Lead design of resilient and observable systems with recovery strategies for connectivity interruptions, service outages, and system failures.
• Partner with product managers, technical teams, and enterprise architects to align solutions with long-term platform strategy and standardization efforts.
• Guide cross-functional teams on architectural tradeoffs and document key architectural decisions within the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) methodology.
• Support cross-team design reviews, architectural governance, and best practice enforcement across multiple programs and portfolios.
• Collaborate with cybersecurity and privacy teams to ensure secure-by-design and privacy-compliant architectures.
• Maintain clear and up-to-date documentation of architectural decisions, C4 diagrams, and interface specifications. 

YOU MUST HAVE: 

• 8+ years of experience in software architecture and development, including formal architecture role experience beyond individual programs, with hands-on development background.
• Experience designing cloud-native, distributed systems, with proven track record on large-scale systems serving millions of users.
• Experience working with IoT protocols, data pipelines, API integration patterns, and connected device ecosystems with real-time data processing experience.
• Familiarity with secure design principles and compliance standards (Ex. GDPR, SOC-2, ISO 27001) and privacy-by-design approaches.
• Ability to communicate and educate architectural principals and development best practices to both engineering teams and leadership stakeholders.
• The ability to work in-office three days/week (Tu/Weds/Thurs) in adherence with our required hybrid work environment [Any one of the following Office Locations: Austin, TX]

WE VALUE: 

• Experience in highly rigorous engineering environments, competitive technical programs, or equivalent applied industry experience demonstrating an ability to be analytical and solve complex engineering problems at a level commonly seen in top‑tier technical training or high performing engineering roles.
• Familiarity with TOGAF or similar enterprise architecture frameworks. Experience working within formal architectural governance structures such as Architecture Review Boards.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills with ability to document architectural decisions using C4 diagrams and architectural decision records.
• Experience working within Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) methodology across multiple teams and products.
• Experience with platform convergence, reusable architecture components, and modular system design. Knowledge of mobile/web application architecture frameworks including React and native applications.
• Experience in smart home, connected device, or consumer electronics domains. Understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities in connected home ecosystems.
• Background in embedded systems or firmware development. Understanding of the full stack from device firmware through cloud services.
• Experience leveraging AI and machine learning capabilities in product development and system architecture. Understanding of how AI/ML can be integrated into IoT and connected device solutions.
• Ability to translate complex business requirements into well-structured, technically feasible, and scalable solutions.
