Description
We are looking for a Technical Director, Architecture to join our team in Tel Aviv. As a Technical Director, Architecture, you will be the floating senior technical authority for our engineering teams in Israel, responsible for carrying any problem in the platform to a decision, especially when it crosses ownership boundaries or has no obvious owner.
Your Role:
- Be the Architecture Voice in Tel Aviv
- Own the technical direction for problems that span product lines, and keep the big picture while teams move fast.
- Turn Requirements into Reality
- Sit with Product Management as requirements arrive, challenge what is not viable, and reshape it into something we can build and scale.
- Stay Hands-On
- Write code, review designs and pull requests, and build the prototype that settles the debate with evidence.
- Multiply the Engineers Around You
- Work with directors, senior staff and principal engineers as an extension of the architecture team, and mentor engineers at every stage.
- Build with AI as a Daily Practice
- Use AI across design, code and investigation, show the organization where it accelerates the work and where it misleads, and help shape how we build software next.
What You'll Need:
- 10+ years of software engineering experience with meaningful depth in architecture at scale;
- Deep experience in distributed systems and cloud computing.
- A prior CTO, Chief Architect or equivalent senior architecture role.
- Hands-on fluency: you can read an unfamiliar codebase, contribute to it, debug a distributed failure and review code with authority, in whatever language the problem needs.
- Generalist range: you have shipped across more than one of services, data, infrastructure or delivery, and become productive in a new domain within weeks.
- Earned authority: people follow you because they respect your judgment, not your title.
- Working fluency with AI-assisted development, including its failure modes.
- Strong written and verbal communication in English, comfortable working across a seven-hour time zone gap.
- Based in Israel, working from our Tel Aviv office.
