What are the responsibilities and job description for the Sr. Technical Architect (Cloud Native) position at Smith Commerce?
Smith is searching for a cloud-native expert to help lead the design and implementation of a new-generation scalable eCommerce platform for a key client. As a Technical Architect (TA) and a key hire in our composable commerce practice, you'll not only play a lead role in this project-you'll be a cloud-native pioneer, helping to build out and grow the team and function.
As a TA at Smith, you'll be counted on to do a few things. You'll work closely with cross-functional teams and clients' technical teams to develop and implement features and enhancements that enable end-to-end integration of our clients' eCommerce offerings. You'll be a technical thought leader, a cloud development best-practice authority within the organization. But you'll also be a team player with exceptional leadership and interpersonal skills. You'll manage a development team and take the initiative to mentor our talented, hungry junior Developers.
And if all that isn't enough, you'll be expected to thrive in our fast-paced environment and take change and uncertainty in stride.
