The Role

We’re looking for a platform-focused, systems-oriented Staff Architect to help define and scale the core platform and integration capabilities at Fusion. This role will shape how our platform connects data, services, and ecosystems across some of the world’s most complex and resilience-critical organizations.

This role holds architectural ownership for Fusion’s expanding off-platform footprint in Microsoft Azure and defines the integration patterns between cloud-native services and external enterprise platforms. The Staff Architect will establish architectural standards, service boundaries, and data movement strategies to ensure long-term scalability, security, and platform optionality.

This is a high-impact, high-ownership role for someone who wants to operate at both strategic and hands-on levels—defining architectural direction, guiding engineering teams, and building extensible integration frameworks that power Fusion’s next generation of products.

You’ll work closely with product, engineering, and customers to ensure our platform is scalable, secure, and adaptable to a rapidly evolving integration landscape.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and govern the architecture for Azure-based off-platform services

• Provide final architectural decision authority for off-platform and cross-platform initiatives

• Design scalable, secure, multi-tenant systems supporting enterprise SaaS workloads

• Define integration patterns and service boundaries across cloud-native services and external platforms

• Establish standards for APIs, event-driven systems, and platform extensibility

• Define and implement guardrails for AI-first development, including agentic workflows and automated evaluation

• Partner with engineering teams to operationalize AI-driven development practices

• Align platform architecture with product strategy and long-term roadmap

• Provide technical leadership and mentorship across engineering teams
