Enterprise AI is moving from pilots to production, and the constraint is no longer the model —it'sthe data. Agents are only as good as what they can sense, trust, and act on in the moment, and real-time, event-driven data is becoming the foundationevery serious AI system runs on.

Solace istheleadingplatform for the enterprise AI era. Established enterprises worldwide — including RBC Capital Markets, Bosch, Heineken, PSA Singapore, United Airlines, Schwarz Group, and hundreds more — have built their business around Solace to enable intelligent,real-timeexperiences, modernize their application and integration landscape, and create seamless digital journeys for their customers, partners, and employees.

Are You Someone Who:

Thinks in systems — seeing architecture, tradeoffs, and long-term implications before writing a line of code?

Has a track record of owning complex,



production-grade software from whiteboard to live deployment?

Leads without a title — naturally elevating the teams and engineers around you?

Gets energized by hard problems at the intersection of AI, distributed systems, and real-world engineering constraints?

Communicates technical ideas clearly to both engineers and non-engineers?

Holds yourself to a high bar for quality, and genuinely cares about the craft?

Is humble, honest, and open — the kind of person others trust and want to build with?

What You'll Do:

Architect for Scale: Design and implement robust, maintainable architectures for agentic AI applications — with clean separation of concerns and a long view on system health

Own Delivery End-to-End: Drive complex features and initiatives through every SDLC phase, from requirements to production, with a bias toward execution

Build Production-Grade Software: Develop high-quality backend services and web frontends using modern JavaScript frameworks, with consistent attention to reliability, performance, and user experience

Lead Technically: Mentor engineers, conduct meaningful code reviews, establish best practices, and be a trusted voice in architectural decisions

Bridge Product and Engineering: Collaborate with PMs, designers, and stakeholders to shape technically sound, deliverable solutions — not just translate requirements





Raise the Quality Bar: Champion testing strategies, CI/CD, and observability practices that keep systems healthy as they grow

Stay Sharp: Actively track emerging technologies and bring relevant ideas back to improve the platform and team practices

What You Bring:

10+ Years of Delivery: A real history of taking complex software from concept to production — not just contribution, but ownership

Technical Depth: Expert-level fluency in Go, Java, C#, or equivalent, plus strong command of contemporary web technologies (TypeScript/JavaScript, React or similar, HTML/CSS)

Architectural Experience: Deep comfort designing scalable, distributed systems and microservices — you know where the bodies are buried in these architectures

Leadership Track Record: Experience leading technical teams, guiding engineers through SDLC phases, and leaving codebases and people better than you found them

Integration Know-How: Hands-on experience with API design, event-driven architectures, and message brokers in complex, integrated environments

Cloud & DevOps Fluency: Practical experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP; containerization with Docker/Kubernetes; and CI/CD pipeline ownership

Communication That Lands: Strong written and verbal communication — you can make complex technical ideas accessible without dumbing them down

Quality Commitment: A genuine standard for code quality, testing, and documentation — not just lip service

Nice to Have:

Familiarity with real-time streaming technologies — Apache Kafka, Pulsar, or Solace PubSub+

Experience with high-availability architectures, performance optimization, or distributed systems at scale<
