The Role

We’re looking for a platform-focused, systems-oriented Staff Architect to help define and scale the core platform and integration capabilities at Fusion. This role will shape how our platform connects data, services, and ecosystems across some of the world’s most complex and resilience-critical organizations.

This role holds architectural ownership for Fusion’s expanding off-platform footprint in Microsoft Azure and defines the integration patterns between cloud-native services and external enterprise platforms. The Staff Architect will establish architectural standards, service boundaries, and data movement strategies to ensure long-term scalability, security, and platform optionality.

This is a high-impact, high-ownership role for someone who wants to operate at both strategic and hands-on levels—defining architectural direction, guiding engineering teams, and building extensible integration frameworks that power Fusion’s next generation of products.

You’ll work closely with product, engineering, and customers to ensure our platform is scalable, secure, and adaptable to a rapidly evolving integration landscape.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and govern the architecture for Azure-based off-platform services

• Provide final architectural decision authority for off-platform and cross-platform initiatives

• Design scalable, secure, multi-tenant systems supporting enterprise SaaS workloads

• Define integration patterns and service boundaries across cloud-native services and external platforms

• Establish standards for APIs, event-driven systems, and platform extensibility

• Define and implement guardrails for AI-first development, including agentic workflows and automated evaluation

• Partner with engineering teams to operationalize AI-driven development practices

• Align platform architecture with product strategy and long-term roadmap

• Provide technical leadership and mentorship across engineering teams

Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities

• Deep expertise in platform architecture, distributed systems, and cloud-native design

• Proven ability to design and build multi-tenant enterprise SaaS systems with strong isolation, scalability, and security characteristics

• Strong understanding of integration patterns and experience defining architecture across heterogeneous platforms (e.g., APIs, event-driven systems, SaaS and cloud-native services)

• Ability to operate hands-on when needed, contributing to both system design and implementation

• Experience building API-first platforms and designing systems that balance scalability, performance, and maintainability

• Experience applying AI-first development concepts, including agentic workflows, code generation, and evaluation-driven engineering practices

• Strong technical leadership with the ability to influence across teams and translate architecture into actionable guidance

• Product-minded with strong communication and collaboration skills across technical and non-technical stakeholders

Qualifications (Education and Experience)

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience)

• 10+ years of experience in software engineering, including significant experience in architecture roles

• Proven experience designing and scaling multi-tenant, cloud-based SaaS platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP)

• Strong experience with microservices, distributed systems, and event-driven architectures in enterprise environments

• Experience defining and implementing integration architectures using technologies such as REST APIs, messaging systems (e.g., Kafka), webhooks, or iPaaS platforms

• Experience with identity and access management (e.g., OAuth, SSO) in distributed systems

• Experience working in enterprise B2B software environments

• Experience applying AI-assisted or agent-based development approaches in production or near-production environments

Milestones for the First Six Months

In one month, you will:

• Complete all HR and onboarding requirements

• Gain a deep understanding of Fusion’s platform architecture, systems, and integration landscape

• Build relationships with engineering, product, and architecture stakeholders

In three months, you will:

• Contribute to architectural direction for key platform and integration initiatives

• Partner with teams to improve or standardize integration patterns and APIs

• Begin influencing platform roadmap and technical decision-making

In six months, you will:

• Lead design and delivery of major platform or integration capabilities

• Establish and drive adoption of architectural standards across teams

• Act as a key technical authority for platform and integration strategy
