Principal Product & Solution Architect – Developer Platform & Agentic Automation

We are seeking an execution‑driven and deeply hands‑on Principal Product & Solution Architect – Developer Platform & Agentic Automation, who not only defines the strategy of our next‑generation developer platform but actively builds, prototypes, and operationalizes it.

Key Responsibilities

Developer Platform Strategy & Architecture

• Define and continuously evolve long‑term strategy for the enterprise Developer Platform.
• Build, prototype, and validate core platform capabilities through hands‑on engineering.
• Design scalable architecture spanning developer portals, CI/CD, IaC, observability, and supply‑chain security.
• Create reference implementations, code samples, templates, and operational runbooks.
• Ensure platform architecture aligns with enterprise standards and regulatory frameworks.

Agentic Automation & AI‑Driven SDLC Enablement

• Architect and implement agentic automation features including LLM‑powered coding assistants, autonomous pipelines, collaborate with PMO, Architecture, QE and App Sec CoE to embed architecture/quality/security checks, and workflow automation.
• Develop hands‑on integrations of Agentic capabilities directly into SDLC tooling.
• Build evaluation frameworks, guardrails, and human‑in‑the‑loop mechanisms through real system instrumentation.

Product Leadership & Developer Experience

• Treat the Developer Platform as a product, building POCs, validating feedback, and improving user journeys through working prototypes.
• Conduct developer interviews, then translate findings into actionable features and improvements.
• Drive adoption by producing highly usable interfaces, automations, and self‑service workflows.
• Track DevEx metrics through data, dashboards, and usage telemetry.

Hands‑On Engineering & Team Enablement

• Lead by doing: write production code, build prototypes, conduct architecture deep dives, and debug complex platform issues directly.
• Mentor and upskill platform engineers through pairing sessions, architectural spikes, code reviews, and structured technical coaching.
• Evaluate open‑source and cloud‑native tools through real implementation testing — not just desk research — before recommending adoption.
• Champion API‑first, automation‑centric, and observable design principles across all platform services.

Stakeholder Collaboration & Leadership

• Serve as the primary technical advisor to engineering leaders, product managers, cloud/security stakeholders, and platform end‑users.
• Communicate platform strategy and architectural decisions with clarity using working demos, prototypes, and measurable outcomes rather than slide decks alone.
• Build trust with senior stakeholders by delivering tangible proof‑of‑value early and consistently.

Governance, Security & Compliance

• Embed secure‑by‑design and DevSecOps principles into platform components through hands‑on code contributions.
• Implement controls, policies, and automated enforcement mechanisms for AI governance and SDLC compliance.
• Partner with risk and security teams to operationalize regulatory requirements in platform systems.

Experience

Required Qualifications

• 8+ years in software engineering or architecture with extensive hands‑on technical delivery.
• Demonstrated ability to implement cloud‑native architecture in complex enterprise environments.
• Proven track record leading multi‑year engineering transformations with direct technical contribution.

Technical Expertise

• Hands‑on expertise with AWS, Azure, or GCP (architecture + implementation).
• Experience with Kubernetes, microservices, and container orchestration.
• Knowledge of software supply chain patterns.
• Fluency in scripting and automation.

Leadership & Product Skills

• Strong communication and influence skills, backed by hands‑on credibility.
• Experience defining roadmaps and metrics for platform products.
• Ability to mentor engineers through coaching, pairing, and architectural deep‑dives.
