Application Development Architect

OVERVIEW OnTrac is seeking a highly skilled and experienced Application Development Architect to join our client's Application Development department, part of a leading Google Cloud partner.

You will work closely with the ECAs, Application Development leadership, delivery project managers, and customer stakeholders to ensure project success from initial definition through final delivery. REQUIRED CREDENTIALS • Professional software engineering and architecture experience with a demonstrated record of operating at a staff or principal level: owning solution architecture for customer engagements and guiding delivery teams • Production delivery experience on Google Cloud Platform • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS • Application architecture for cloud-native systems: microservices, API design, event-driven pa
