Senior Software Architect

This job is brought to you by Jobs/Redefined, the UK's leading over-50s age inclusive jobs board.

We are looking for a Senior Software Architect to join our dynamic and growing team. This role is pivotal to building resilient infrastructure and ensuring our solutions align with cutting-edge standards in technology and security.

At Navro, we value diversity and are committed to creating an environment where everyone feels supported and empowered to contribute their unique perspectives.

We're not just offering a job - we're offering an adventure alongside a great team.

Who We Are

We are transforming payments for global platforms and e-commerce businesses. As the world's first payments curation platform, we simplify cross-border transactions by uniting best-in-class infrastructure into a seamless ecosystem, enabling businesses to scale and operate effortlessly across borders.

Cross-border workforce payments are slow, expensive, and outdated. We can't be. Businesses rely on us to pay their people accurately and on time - contractors, freelancers, and employees across the globe. When we say we'll deliver, failure isn't an option. If we don't do what we said we would, people don't get paid - not just a transaction delayed, but real workers left without wages.

That means a developer in Argentina missing their paycheck, a freelancer in the Philippines unable to pay rent, or a contractor in Poland unable to get to work. No excuses. No passengers. No tolerance for politics or mediocrity.

The Role

As our Business Analyst, you will be responsible for understanding both internal and external Navro client needs and translating these needs into clear detailed requirements for the Navro development team.

Requirements

We are looking for a unique individual to take on the Senior Software Architect role. Although your primary responsibility will be to focus on the design and implementation of high-availability, high-throughput, low latency cloud systems, you are a full stack technologist who spends time writing code when necessary, driving technical discussions/decisions and tool choices, and internal technical quality.

To be successful in this role, you:

• Have a broad set of expertise and experience in designing, developing and deploying secure and scalable high-availability / high-throughput / low-latency cloud systems (100+ TPS)
• Are fluent in the 12 Factor App concepts and cloud resilience patterns.
• Are highly proficient in data modeling, data structures and algorithms.
• Have experience of JavaScript, reactive Java, Spring Boot, microservices, K8S, ArgoCD and AWS.
• Have a strong technical background with a deep understanding of software development and systems architecture, as well as experience with security technologies and protocols, such as zero-trust architecture, encryption, access controls, firewalls, etc.
• Are experienced in securing cloud applications and have experience in risk management and thread modeling frameworks.
• Have experience in Payments, Digital Currencies or a FinTech business

You may not possess every single required skill listed, and that's perfectly fine. If you have most of them, along with grit, passion, a desire to learn quickly, and the willingness to get stuck in, we encourage you to apply.

Benefits

As part of this role, you will receive the following:

• You will enjoy 26 days of annual leave (excluding Bank holidays)
• Volunteering and Compassionate leaves
• Maternity and Paternity leaves
• Private Healthcare
• Company Options Scheme
• Team socials
• Comprehensive, interactive & engaging Training - Leadership, Communication and Presentation Skills, Behavioural Profiling, Conflict Management, etc
• Career frameworks
• Flexibility surrounding other commitments; within your team we will work around child-care or other appointments you have. We just ask for advance notice!
• Working in a diverse and inclusive environment where we ensure that our people thrive
