  • Experience making long‑term product architecture decisions, including feature evolution, scalability, and maintainability of a platform over time.
  • Strong hands‑on experience in cloud‑native architecture – designing, building, and operating scalable solutions (AWS preferred; Azure acceptable).
  • Ability to balance technical depth with pragmatic decision‑making in a product environment.
  • Experience working closely with product and engineering teams in a product‑led organization.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder collaboration skills (verbal and written in English).
  • Domain knowledge in finance, invoicing, document automation, ERP integration, or compliance platforms is a strong plus.
