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.
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.
*Some benefits may vary depending on location.

We are looking for a Software Architect (Platform Architecture) to shape the core technical foundations of JetBrains Cloud Platform from the ground up.
This role focuses on the architecture of shared platform capabilities: cross-product services, infrastructure abstractions, integration standards, scalability and reliability principles, and operational foundations (such as security, governance, observability, and cost controls). As this is a new platform, many standards and processes are still works in progress – you will actively influence what good quality looks like and help teams build toward it.

At JetBrains, code is our passion. Ever since we started, back in 2000, we have strived to make the strongest, most effective developer tools on earth. By automating routine checks and corrections, our tools speed up production, freeing developers to grow, discover, and create.
We just unveiled JetBrains Central, a platform for agent-driven software development that connects tools, agents, and infrastructure. It enables automated AI workflows to run, be monitored, and be managed across teams – with clear visibility into results, costs, and performance.
JetBrains Central provides three core capabilities:
Governance and control: Policy enforcement, identity and access management, observability, auditability, and cost attribution for agent-driven work. Some of these functionalities are already available via the JetBrains Central Console.
Agent execution infrastructure: Cloud agent runtimes and computation provisioning that allow agents to run reliably across development environments.
Agent optimization and context: Shared semantic context across repositories and projects, enabling agents to access relevant knowledge, and task routing to the most appropriate models or tools.
Inside the Professional Services department, we are building a team of Forward Deployed Engineers to help our customers adopt AI-native development with JetBrains Central and enable JetBrains consulting partners to transform their customers’ AI-native software development lifecycle.
As a Principal Forward Deployed Engineer, you will work directly with early adopter customers to deploy JetBrains Central platform into complex enterprise environments and help them move from experimental AI usage to governed, scalable AI-native development.
You will act as a trusted advisor to customer engineering teams and consulting partners, while also mentoring other Forward Deployed Engineers and helping with complex deployments. In this role, you will help establish best practices for enterprise AI adoption and influence how organizations implement AI-driven software development.
This role is often a strong fit for engineers who have previously served as Principal or Staff Engineers, Heads of Engineering, CTOs, or Solutions Architects and who enjoy working directly with customers while staying deeply involved with complex technical systems.
This role combines consulting, architecture, and hands-on engineering. Your work in the field will directly influence how our platform evolves and how enterprises adopt AI-driven development.
You will work directly with the world’s most innovative companies — our client base includes 420 of the Fortune 500 — ensuring they maximize the value of their JetBrains investments.
