WHAT YOU'LL DO 

 

You will be the technical north star for complex, crossproduct solutions—translating business outcomes into resilient architectures and guiding teams from concept to production. You’ll partner deeply with product, engineering, security, and operations to design scalable services, derisk delivery, and raise the bar on quality and velocity. In our environment, solutions frequently span microservices with RESTful APIs, evented integrations, and polyglot persistence (including NoSQL), with services coordinating via message queues and touchpoints into RealPage platform systems—so you’ll shape designs that are observable, secure, and easy to operate at scale. 

Responsibilities

• Lead technical discovery sessions to understand business needs, constraints, and integration points. 
• Translate requirements into clear architectural designs, diagrams, and implementation roadmaps. 
• Partner with engineering teams to ensure solutions are built according to architectural intent. 
• Evaluate and recommend technologies, frameworks, and patterns that improve performance, reliability, and scalability. 
• Provide technical leadership during development, including code level guidance when needed. 
• Communicate architectural decisions and tradeoffs to both technical and nontechnical stakeholders. 
• Mentor engineers and contribute to architectural standards, best practices, and governance. 

Qualifications

Required Knowledge/Skills 

• Proven track record of delivering scalable, maintainable, and secure solutions. 

• Clear communicator: ability to simplify complex technical concepts and communicate them clearly. 

• Software engineering depth in TypeScript/Node/React, plus CI/CD and automated testing patterns. 

• Cloud Architecture: deep familiarity with at least one major cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP). 

Bonus Knowledge/Skills 

• RealPage ecosystem familiarity (e.g., UDMS/UDM, Resident Identity/CIDP, OneSite, ActiveBuilding) or prior experience integrating with large SaaS platforms. 

• Event streaming (e.g., Kafka) and advanced messaging patterns (DLQs, compaction, exactlyonce semantics). 

• Cloud architecture depth (AWS/Azure/GCP) including VPC design, private networking, managed messaging/databases, and IaC. 

• Compliance/regulatory experience (SOC 2, PCI, GDPR/CCPA) and security hardening at the platform and service levels. 

 

While not required, please feel free to include links to social media, blog or portfolio work online if you would like to include it as part of your background.
