  • Partner with architects to embed resiliency requirements into engineering practices from inception.
  • Assess end-to-end service resilience, identifying single points of failure across various components.
  • Act as a trusted advisor to engineering teams on fault tolerance and disaster recovery strategies.
  • Guide the adoption of modern resiliency practices such as chaos engineering and automation-first recovery.

What we're looking for

  • 7+ years of experience in systems engineering, technology architecture, or equivalent roles
  • Proven expertise in designing highly available distributed systems in complex enterprise environments
  • Deep knowledge of cloud and hybrid architectures (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Experience influencing large-scale architecture and design decisions
  • Hands-on experience with operational resilience, disaster recovery, and business continuity in regulated industries
