Software Architect

About This Role

Driving the vision, design, and execution of scalable enterprise platforms that capture, stream, and analyze hot-fire test data in real time is the core of this mission-critical role. This position bridges the gap between low-level sensor streams and high-throughput cloud analytics, leading a cross-functional engineering team to transform raw combustion chamber pressures, cryogenic flow rates, and high-frequency vibration data into actionable propulsion insights, powering next-generation orbital flight systems. You will modernize legacy platforms into high-throughput microservices/serverless architectures, manage cloud deployments, and interface directly with engineering leadership.

Responsibilities

• Architect, build, and optimize enterprise-grade services and high-throughput backend APIs to support advanced analysis of high-rate rocket engine telemetry data
• Design architectures that integrate enterprise/cloud platforms with real-time/embedded/telemetry data-acquisition systems while meeting strict compliance requirements
• Design systems that allow legacy and modern components to work together to improve operational efficiency for propulsion design, engine testing and manufacturing
• Own end-to-end cloud infrastructure design using Azure and/or AWS
• Drive Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and containerization strategies using Docker and Kubernetes
• Architect robust integration hubs and collaborate with specialized propulsion teams to integrate advanced technologies like predictive embeddings and natural language processing (NLP) into core workflows
• Build, repair, and optimize continuous integration and deployment pipelines to reduce deployment complexity and improve developer velocity
• Set up reproducible local development environments (e.g., docker-compose) and maintain high standards for system profiling, automated testing, and observability
• Serve as the technical owner for core systems, balancing Dev and Ops responsibilities, incident response, and performance monitoring for both software systems and rocket engine hot fire testing
• Partner
