Job Description – GoLang Solution Architect
Job Title: GoLang Solution Architect / Senior Solution Architect
Experience: 10–12 Years
Employment Type: Full-Time
Work Mode: Remote
Job Summary
We are looking for a highly experienced Solution Architect with strong expertise in GoLang, cloud architecture, distributed systems, and cybersecurity platforms. The ideal candidate will own end-to-end solution architecture for a cloud-based cybersecurity platform operating at massive scale, supporting millions of assets/endpoints across multiple product modules and a broad third-party integration ecosystem.
The candidate should have a strong track record of designing, scaling, and operating highly available, secure, and cost-efficient systems in production.
Key Responsibilities
- Own and define the end-to-end solution architecture across multiple product modules such as detection, response, asset inventory, and reporting.
- Design highly scalable architectures capable of reliably supporting millions of assets, endpoints, records, and events.
- Lead cloud infrastructure architecture decisions covering compute, storage, networking, IAM, multi-region, multi-account, multi-tenant architecture, and disaster recovery.
- Design and govern integrations with third-party platforms such as SIEM/SOAR, ticketing systems, identity providers, cloud APIs, and threat intelligence platforms.
- Define reusable integration patterns, APIs, data contracts, messaging frameworks, and integration standards.
- Develop and maintain architecture roadmaps, capacity plans, technology strategies, and technical standards aligned with business and product goals.
- Establish architectural standards and guardrails for scalability, security, APIs, data flow, reliability, and cost optimization.
- Work closely with Engineering, Product, Security, DevOps, and Infrastructure teams to align technical decisions and implementation.
- Conduct architecture reviews and identify performance bottlenecks, scalability limitations, security risks, and single points of failure.
- Lead threat modeling and ensure security is incorporated throughout the architecture and development lifecycle.
- Own key non-functional requirements (NFRs) including performance, availability, reliability, security, compliance, and cost efficiency.
- Evaluate and recommend core technologies including databases, messaging systems, orchestration platforms, cloud services, and Infrastructure as Code tools.
- Support presales and enterprise customer discussions, particularly for large-scale and complex deployments.
- Create and maintain architecture documentation including C4 diagrams, ADRs, system architecture diagrams, and data-flow diagrams.
- Provide technical leadership and influence architecture decisions across multiple engineering teams without direct reporting authority.
Required Skills & Qualifications
- 10–12 years of experience in software engineering, infrastructure engineering, or architecture roles.
- Minimum 4+ years of experience in Solution Architecture / Enterprise Architecture.
- Strong hands-on experience with GoLang (Golang) and modern software architecture.
- Proven experience designing and operating large-scale distributed systems in production.
- Experience handling systems involving millions of assets, records, events, or endpoints.
- Strong expertise in at least one major cloud platform: AWS, Azure, or GCP.
- Strong understanding of:
- Distributed systems
- Event-driven architecture
- Data partitioning
- Eventual consistency
- Caching strategies
- High availability and fault tolerance
- Scalability and performance optimization
- Experience with multi-tenant, multi-account, and multi-region architectures.
- Strong knowledge of cloud networking, IAM, security, disaster recovery, and cost optimization.
- Experience designing integration architectures using REST APIs, webhooks, message queues, and asynchronous communication.
- Strong understanding of security architecture and threat modeling.
- Ability to define and enforce architectural standards across engineering teams.
- Excellent experience creating C4 architecture diagrams, ADRs, data-flow diagrams, and technical documentation.
- Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills with the ability to work with engineering, product, security, infrastructure, and business teams.
Cybersecurity Domain Knowledge
Candidates with experience in cybersecurity products or platforms will be preferred, particularly in areas such as:
- SIEM
- SOAR
- EDR/XDR
- CNAPP
- CSPM
- Threat detection and response
- Security event/data pipelines
- Cloud security
- Identity and access management
Candidates from adjacent large-scale technology domains may also be considered if they demonstrate the ability to quickly understand and work within a cybersecurity environment.
Good to Have
- Experience integrating with platforms such as Splunk, ServiceNow, Okta, AWS Security Hub, or similar enterprise security ecosystems.
- Experience with Terraform / Infrastructure as Code.
- Strong knowledge of Kubernetes and service mesh architectures at scale.
- Experience with distributed messaging systems and large-scale data platforms.
- Experience working in enterprise or regulated environments.
- Knowledge of SOC 2, FedRAMP, ISO 27001, or similar compliance requirements.
- Experience designing architectures that have scaled from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of managed assets.
- Experience supporting enterprise customers and presales architecture discussions.
What We Offer
- Opportunity to architect a large-scale cloud cybersecurity platform.
- Work on complex distributed systems operating at massive scale.
- High-impact role with ownership across product, cloud, security, and infrastructure architecture.
- Opportunity to influence technology strategy and architectural standards across engineering teams.
