About the job

Crossover is the world's #1 source of remote full-time jobs. Our clients offer top-tier pay for top-tier talent. We're recruiting this role for our client, Trilogy. Have you got what it takes?

Are you the best software architect in your company? Can you identify patterns in complex systems and see ways to make them 10x simpler? Do you enjoy designing software that maximizes the use of existing code? Do you wish you could expand your technical career without requiring more time on HR or project management? If so, you’ll love our approach of driving the direction of products starting with the core technology.

In this role, you will join a passionate and experienced team responsible for all of the important technical decisions on every product in our extensive portfolio of enterprise software solutions. You’ll spend your time making strategic technical design decisions, such as:

• What are the core data structures used by the app? Why were they chosen? How are they mapped or applied to the domain of the problem? What were the tradeoffs or alternatives?
• What is the rationale behind critical technical dependencies or limitations this product has? Are there new and creative ways to overcome them?
• Can the product be broken down logically into smaller, more manageable components?

What You Will Be Doing

• Each week you will have a different design problem to work on and a technical spec to create products with distinct tech stacks and business domains.
• You will uncover the “high-order bit” decisions by interviewing other technical leads, analyzing the data structures and code/design documents.
• You will make important design decisions that specify how to re-architect products in a cloud-first way on systems such as AWS and GCP.

What You Won’t Be Doing

• You will not be making any decisions based primarily on saving money. This is a strategic technical design position that provides clear leadership for our engineering organization to execute on.
• You will not participate in daily scrum meetings, making low-level decisions, performing code reviews, or debugging.
• You will not be talking to customers or developing a backlog of wishlist features.

Basic Requirements

Product CTO key responsibilities

• At least 2 years of experience writing production-quality code
• At least 7 years of experience making important architecture and design decisions on software projects, such as the application of architecture design patterns or significant open source technologies
• At least 2 years of experience as the decision-maker for design decisions involving the use of cloud computing services
• Experience working as a senior technical leader whose technical design decisions measurably influenced a software development organization of at least 50 people
• Ability to simplify complex ideas and communicate them with clear, logical thinking

Nice-to-have Requirements

• A university degree that includes the study of data structures and algorithms, or equivalent experience
