Product Architect

Product Architect role at Deloitte focused on hands-on software architecture for high-visibility projects, delivering customer and business value. Responsibilities include technical leadership, engineering craftsmanship, customer-centric solutions, and cross-functional collaboration, emphasizing modern software engineering practices and iterative delivery.

What you'd actually do

  1. Embrace and drive a culture of accountability for customer and business outcomes. Develop engineering solutions that solve complex problems with valuable outcomes, ensuring high-quality, lean designs and implementations.
  2. Serve as the technical advocate for products, ensuring architectural integrity, feasibility, and alignment with business and customer goals, NFRs, and applicable architecture and engineering standards—being responsible for product architecture blueprints, high-level architecture designs (e.g., “4+1 model” or relevant others), and integration architecture into the technical landscape and technology stack.
  3. Possess passion and experience as an individual contributor, responsible for the engineering designs and technical feasibility of solutions, being hands-on with design, configuration and code part of the time, contributing to team velocity. Actively get engaged with engineers to ensure architecture is understood and can be implemented, working with them closely during sprints, helping resolve any technical issues through to production operations: reviewing code, actively driving technology debt reduction, and helping drive engineering quality. Be self-driven to learn new technologies, experiment with engineers, and inspire the team to learn and drive the application of those new technologies.
  4. Develop lean engineering solutions through rapid, inexpensive experimentation to solve customer needs. Engage with customers and product teams to deliver the right architectural solution for the product in the right way at the right time.
  5. Exhibit a mindset that favors action and evidence over extensive planning. Utilize a leaning-forward approach to navigate complexity and uncertainty, delivering lean, supportable, and maintainable solutions.
