We value thoughtfulness and high performance in everyone. That’s how we’ve grown quickly and won (and kept) thousands of school districts across the U.S. The engineering team is fast-growing and you’ll have the tools, the mentors, and the resources you need to be successful. We ask you to be someone who is internally motivated to do your best work and that you care about others. Apptegy’s Software Architect position is your opportunity to join a high-performing team and contribute to our growth and your own.

Why You’ll Love This Job

A Software Architect at Apptegy works within the Product and Engineering teams to refine business requirements and translate them into scalable specifications, designs, and user stories.  The ideal Architect candidate will be experienced with domain-driven design and capable of eventually offering hands-on support to a development team working in an environment that includes products built on Ruby on Rails. An architect is also expected to be an exceptional communicator, listener, collaborator, and team player.

What You’ll Do

  • Support product leaders in translating business requirements into high-level product specifications ensuring business value, system integration, scalability, and feasibility.
  • Work with humility as a member of an engineering team to assist in creating user stories produced from high-level product specifications and participate in their implementation.
  • Sculpt data models with performance, integrity, and longevity in mind.
  • Work closely with multi-disciplinary engineering teams to design solutions that integrate well with our ecosystem of backend services (Ruby/Rails) and frontend applications (Web - Vue.js and Mobile - iOS and Android).
  • Produce architectural design documents consumed by various internal teams to aid in the support and refinement of our multi-service architecture.
  • Dive deep into design patterns and principles to keep simplicity, scalability, and availability in our architecture as it evolves.
  • Assist tech support and engineering team members in the resolution of production issues, as needed.

Who You Are

  • 10+ years of experience with a focus on backend and solid experience in a SaaS environment using technology similar to Ruby on Rails.
  • An aptitude for challenge and a track record of success.
  • Deep experience as a software engineer involving both deciding feature and/or platform architecture, writing code, and building products.
  • Strong experience in a top-level database system (ideally PostgreSQL, but others work also).
  • Capable of working closely with other software engineers to accomplish larger objectives and leading conversations on design and architecture for software development.
  • You have opinions, you're comfortable expressing and defending those opinions, but you aren’t dogmatic.

Apptegy will not consider remote candidates from California, Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Nevada, New York, Rhode Island, or Washington for this opening.

Why You'll Love Working With Us

--Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and life insurance coverage
--Retirement 401(k) with employer match
