Technical Architect

We’re hiring a Technical Architect to lead the design and delivery of scalable,
secure embedded services across Sage’s platform. You’ll sit at the intersection of
engineering, architecture, and strategy—working with product, platform, and
partner teams to define solutions that are technically robust, cloud-native, and
aligned with our long-term vision.
You’ll be instrumental in helping Sage embed services into diverse ecosystems
by championing API-first thinking, cloud architecture best practices, and
scalable service design. This is a hands-on role ideal for someone who enjoys
both deep system-level work and strategic architectural leadership.
This is a hybrid role requiring 3 days per week in our Barcelona office.
First 90 Days
30 days – Onboard with the team, familiarize yourself with our Embedded
Services Platform, and review current architectures and design patterns.
60 days – Lead architectural design sessions and align technical direction with
product goals. Begin contributing to design of new core components.
90 days – Take full ownership of architectural decisions in one or more service
areas. Collaborate across teams to improve scalability, maintainability, and
integration patterns.
Meet the Team
You’ll report to a senior technology leader and work closely with solution
designers, product managers, cloud infrastructure specialists, and full-stack
engineering teams (primarily working in C# and React). You’ll also engage with
Sage Partners to ensure seamless third-party integrations.
How Success Will Be Measured
 Delivery of scalable, secure, and maintainable service architectures
 Alignment of solution designs with Sage’s enterprise architecture
standards
 Influence across engineering teams through architectural mentorship
 Improvement in developer experience, service performance, and
integration quality
Skills You’ll Gain
 End-to-end architecture ownership in a large-scale cloud platform
 Exposure to embedded services at enterprise level, used by external
partners and internal teams
 Broader impact through mentorship, code review, and technical
leadership
 Strategic engagement with senior stakeholders, balancing delivery and
long-term vision
Snapshot of Your Day-to-Day
You’ll design core components of the Embedded Services Platform, guide
architecture decisions, write and review code (primarily in C#), and ensure
implementation quality across development teams. You’ll lead discussions with
product teams, participate in partner enablement, and champion architecture
governance while keeping a hands-on role.
