This is an opportunity to take ownership of technical direction rather than simply maintain existing applications. The organization is seeking a hands-on architect who enjoys solving large-scale engineering challenges, mentoring experienced developers, and shaping engineering standards. You will have significant influence over architecture decisions, technology adoption, and the evolution of a growing SaaS environment while continuing to contribute code and design solutions directly.

  • Strong experience with Angular, TypeScript, or similar SPA frameworks 

  • Experience designing scalable multi-tier software architectures 

  • Strong relational database design and performance optimization skills 

  • Knowledge of REST APIs, authentication frameworks, and SaaS best practices 

  • Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, ECS, or similar container technologies 

  • Ability to create architectural documentation and technical standards 

  • Comfort using AI-assisted development tools to improve productivity 

Desired Skills & Experience 

  • Background supporting construction, facilities, field operations, or asset-management software 

  • Experience integrating with third-party enterprise platforms 

  • Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code and GitOps methodologies 

  • Knowledge of enterprise identity management, RBAC, or SSO solutions 

  • Experience with application monitoring, telemetry, and distributed tracing 

  • History of leading modernization, migration, or platform consolidation initiatives 

What You Will Be Doing 

Tech Breakdown 

  • 35% PHP/Laravel Application Development 

  • 25% Angular/TypeScript Front-End Solutions 

  • 20% Architecture, Design, and Technical Strategy 

  • 20% Cloud Services, APIs, and Platform Collaboration 

Daily Responsibilities 

  • 60% Hands-On Engineering and Technical Design 

  • 15% Mentorship and Code Reviews 

  • 15% Cross-Functional Collaboration 

  • 10% Strategic Planning and Technology Evaluation 

The Offer 

  • Bonus eligible 

  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance 

  • Paid Time Off and Holidays 

  • Retirement Savings Program 

  • Professional Development Opportunities 

  • Remote Work Flexibility 

Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis now and in the future.
