Job Overview At iCIMS, we're redefining how people connect with opportunity through intelligent, human-centred technology.

We are advancing our platform architecture to enable agentic systems, intelligent workflows, and adaptive services powered by a unified, data-centric strategy.

As an Enterprise Architect, you will lead high-impact transformation initiatives, defining patterns, partnering across engineering disciplines, and ensuring secure, resilient, and scalable solutions that align with strategic business outcomes.

Responsibilities Architect and lead transformation initiatives focused on agentic system enablement through data-centric design.

Define and implement architectural patterns that support autonomous agents, intelligent workflows, and adaptive services.

Drive the development of a unified data strategy that supports consistent data interpretation across platforms, traceability, and contextual awareness.

Partner with data architects and engineers to evaluate and integrate emerging technologies that support agentic capabilities, such as event sourcing, knowledge graphs, and AI/ML pipelines.

Collaborate closely with DevOps and infrastructure teams to ensure all solutions are seamlessly deployable, resilient, and optimized for their intended hosted environments.

Provide and timely architectural estimates to Product Management for business-critical solutions to ensure alignment with delivery timelines and strategic priorities.

Conduct design reviews and mentor senior developers in architectural best practices, principles and standards.

Engage with Product Management to align architectural decisions with strategic business goals and customer needs.

Represent iCIMS in external forums, sharing thought leadership on agentic systems, data architecture, and digital transformation.

Ensure all solutions adhere to high standards of uncompromising integrity, security as a core tenet, and strict compliance to safeguard enterprise trust.

Advance the overall platform architecture, including selecting new technologies.

Participate in external events as an iCIMS representative, showcasing thought leadership.

Consistently ensure that business is always conducted with integrity and that behavior aligns with iCIMS policies, procedures and core competencies.

Qualifications 10+ years of experience in software/solution architecture; 3+ years as an Enterprise or Platform Architect leading large-scale, distributed systems.

Demonstrated success in designing and implementing scalable, serverless architectures in Azure or AWS, with a focus on positioning data to support both operational workflows and advanced analytics.

Experience: with Java and proficiency across modern technologies including REACT, Angular, JavaScript, Spring, HTML, CSS.

Strong understanding of RESTful services, JSON, and event-driven APIs.

Showcased proficiency in security-by-design: identity/IAM, encryption, secrets management, zero trust, and compliance frameworks (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR/CCPA).

Proven ability to define reference architectures, establish guardrails/standards, and drive adoption across multiple product teams.

Track record of success in leading Agile or Iterative software development initiatives.

Demonstrated experience delivering architectural estimates, roadmaps, and trade-off analyses to guide product strategy and execution.

Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills; comfortable presenting to executives, product leaders, and engineering teams.

Experience: designing systems that support agentic behavior, autonomous workflows, or intelligent orchestration is highly desirable.

Ability to manage multiple priorities and lead cross-functional transformation efforts.

Experience: mentoring senior engineers, conducting architecture/design reviews, and elevating engineering maturity.

Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Information Systems, or related field—or equivalent practical experience.
