What you'll be doing

Define and govern the unified API strategy for CUE (REST and GraphQL), design standards, versioning, deprecation, breaking-change discipline, and consistency across teams.

● Design integration patterns for a modular, microservices-based platform, sync vs async, anti-corruption layers, adapters, and migration from bespoke customer integrations to standardized platform interfaces; guide teams on when to use events vs APIs and how to avoid tight coupling.

● Own event-driven architecture on Kafka , topic design, event contracts, schema evolution, CDC/streaming, and consistency models (ordering, idempotency, replay).

● Establish data domains and governance , ownership models, schema definition and evolution, metadata, lineage, quality, classification, retention, and compliance readiness.

● Align contracts with domain boundaries , connect bounded contexts, domain events, and service ownership to API, event, and data design, in close collaboration with the Software Architect.

● Enable teams through architecture leadership , produce reference architectures and integration blueprints, shepherd ADRs, review high-risk designs, and coach teams on better patterns without blocking delivery.

● Reduce fragmentation and drive consolidation , identify one-off approaches early and steer teams toward reusable platform standards.

● Partner across architecture and delivery , work with platform, product, and engineering teams to ensure standards are usable, adopted, and durable.
