• Demonstrated ability to mentor Senior and Mid-level Engineers and partner with Engineering Managers on technical direction
• Experience leading technical design reviews and influencing architectural decisions across team and product boundaries

Desired Qualifications

• Experience in cloud, preferably using Microsoft Azure (AKS, Storage, Key Vaults, Azure SQL or equivalent)
• Track record of delivering production-grade systems that meet enterprise compliance, security, and reliability standards
• Hands-on experience designing and operating workflow-driven systems (orchestration, retries, timeouts, and state management)
• Experience integrating Machine Learning, Neural Networks or LLMs into enterprise applications and workflows
• Comfort operating across a globally distributed engineering organization spanning multiple regions and cultures

At JetBrains, we’re building an AI-native platform for software development that connects developer workflows, team-level collaboration, and organizational control into a single coherent system. This platform will serve as the execution and governance layer for AI-driven development, deeply integrated with developer tools but designed to work across teams, products, and environments. This is a long-term strategic investment for JetBrains and a key pillar of our vision for the future of software development.

The role

We are looking for a Software Architect (Product Architecture) to drive architecture within a specific product area.

This role focuses on owning end-to-end architecture for a product domain: making sure product requirements translate into a coherent technical design, that the domain evolves sustainably, and that the product aligns with platform capabilities and constraints. You’ll be the architectural “center of gravity” for a domain, partnering closely with engineers and product stakeholders while collaborating with platform architects on shared foundations and integration contracts.

As this is a new platform, many standards and processes are still works in progress – you will help define them from the perspective of real product needs and delivery constraints.

As part of the team, you will:

• Own the architecture of a specific product domain within JetBrains Cloud Platform and evolve it over time.
• Translate product and domain requirements into clear architectural designs and implementation approaches.
• Define service boundaries, domain models, data flows, and integration contracts, in line with platform standards.
• Drive key architectural decisions and trade-offs in your area (e.g., API design, persistence, reliability, performance, and migration paths).
• Ensure your domain architecture supports scalability, reliability, and observability from the outset.
• Review and validate architectural designs within your domain and team, raising quality and consistency.
• Collaborate with platform architects and other domain owners to align on cross-cutting decisions and shared interfaces.
• Work closely with senior and staff engineers to clarify requirements, reduce ambiguity, and support execution.
  
  

We are looking for someone who:

• Has strong experience in software engineering and system design, with a track record of working on complex systems.
• Has experience owning architecture within a product or domain, including balancing delivery needs with long-term sustainability.
• Is comfortable aligning product needs with platform capabilities and constraints (and negotiating trade-offs when needed).
• Can facilitate architectural decision-making inside a team and across partner teams.
• Is comfortable working in an environment where many processes and standards are still being formed.
• Is motivated by long-term goals, designing for evolution rather than one-off implementations.
  
  

We’d be particularly thrilled if you:

• Have experience designing product architectures that operate in cloud environments and integrate with multiple systems.
• Are strong at reasoning about architectural trade-offs in context (time-to-market vs correctness, flexibility vs complexity, etc.).
• Enjoy helping teams converge on good solutions through collaboration, not enforcement.

Why join JetBrains?

• Strong base salary. We offer competitive pay that reflects your skills and experience.
• Flexible work location. Enjoy the freedom to work from home or from the office.
• Remote work. Spend up to 30 days per year working remotely from abroad.
• Extra time off. More days to relax, recharge, and do the things you love.
• Medical insurance allowance. Enjoy peace of mind for you and your family.
• Learning and development opportunities. Access to conferences, courses, and language classes.
• Relocation support. We help make your move as smooth and stress-free as possible.
• Language classes. Pick up the local language or sharpen your English skills.
• Fuel your day. Enjoy a hot meal or receive a lunch allowance on workdays.
• Mental health support. To help you feel your best, we provide easy access to professional mental health services.
• Sports benefit. Enjoy an on-site gym or sports club stipend.
• Internal events. Join company-wide celebrations and team gatherings.

*Some benefits may vary depending on location.
