AI-enhanced for better readability
Senior Systems Architect (Backend / AI-Native / Not a CRUD Role)
Location: Pinehurst, TX | Remote, Onsite, Hybrid
About the Role
We are looking for a senior systems architect, not a feature developer. This role is for someone who:
- Has designed systems end-to-end
- Understands how to structure complex backend systems
- Can work alongside AI-assisted development (not against it)
If your primary strength is writing features or following tickets, this is not the role.
Responsibilities
You will be responsible for:
- Evaluating existing systems and identifying what should be: kept, restructured, rebuilt
- Designing system architecture across: data flow, service boundaries, processing layers
- Structuring systems that involve: multiple data inputs (APIs, documents, etc.), document ingestion and parsing, asynchronous/background processing
- Defining backend patterns for: reliability, scalability, maintainability
- Working in an environment where AI tools (e.g. Claude, OpenAI Codex) are actively used for execution
This is a design-first role, not a ticket-driven role.
How to Apply (Required)
Please include:
- A brief description of a system you personally designed end-to-end
- The hardest architectural decision you made in that system
- A short explanation of how you currently use AI tools in your workflow
Applications without this information will not be considered.
