We invest heavily in digital-first operations, allowing our teams to collaborate effectively across 27 U.S. states, 2 Canadian Provinces, India, Luxembourg, and England. We also have physical offices in San Francisco, New York City, Mumbai and Bangalore for employees who prefer to work in an office some or all of the time.

About your role

We are seeking a Senior Staff Software Engineer to lead the architecture and evolution of the core systems that power Juniper Square - the distributed services, cloud infrastructure, and developer platform on which every product, workflow, and AI capability is built. You will define the vision, architecture, operating model, and execution roadmap required to evolve from team-by-team infrastructure decisions to a cohesive, paved-road platform that enables every engineering team to ship reliable, secure, and performant software at speed.

This role anchors a strategic priority for our GPX line of business: taking Juniper Square upmarket to serve the largest private equity institutions in the world - firms managing $100B+ in AUM. Serving these PE titans demands a step-change in everything our systems do: order of magnitude increase in data and traffic volumes; enterprise-grade security, and integration expectations. You will architect the systems foundation that makes this scalable.

This is a deeply hands-on leadership role for a technical expert who leads by building: you will actively design systems, prototype solutions, write and review code, and guide teams through their most complex technical challenges.

Your mandate spans the full systems estate. You will modernize our service architecture and cloud foundation, define architecture across compute, networking, service communication, multi-tenancy, and observability, and build the systems substrate - including the infrastructure powering JunieAI and agentic workloads - on which teams across the business build and operate software. Throughout, you will hold our production systems to the availability, latency, security, and cost standards expected of a platform administering $300B+ in private markets assets.

You will work closely with engineering leadership, product teams, security, and executive stakeholders to align technology strategy with business outcomes, mentor engineers, and build a culture of operational excellence. Success in this role means not only delivering a modern systems platform but also elevating the team's capabilities, processes, and ways of working to operate as a true platform engineering organization.
While this is a remote role, some travel is required - to in-person leadership meetups, team offsites, and to customer sites in support of enterprise engagements where deep technical presence matters.

What you'll do

Architecture & Technical Leadership

• Define and own the end-to-end systems architecture strategy across services, infrastructure, and developer platform

• Designing frameworks and design patterns that accelerate the work of the rest of engineering org

• Design scalable, fault-tolerant distributed systems spanning synchronous APIs, asynchronous workflows, and event-driven architectures

• Establish standards for service design, API contracts, multi-tenancy, and inter-service communication

• Lead architecture reviews and technical decision-making for high-stakes, cross-cutting initiatives

• Drive adoption of modern architectures (event-driven systems, platform engineering, infrastructure as code)

Hands-On Engineering

• Design and prototype critical platform and infrastructure components

• Write production-quality code for complex or high-impact areas

• Review service designs, infrastructure changes, and performance-critical code paths

• Troubleshoot performance, scalability, and reliability issues across services, queues, caches, and databases

• Optimize workloads for latency, throughput, concurrency, and cost

Platform & Infrastructure Ownership

• Design and architect a scalable cloud platform supporting compute, networking, storage, service orchestration, and deployment across all product lines

• Build a paved-road developer platform - golden paths, internal tooling, CI/CD, and self-service infrastructure - that makes the right way the easy way

• Create reusable platform primitives and internal APIs that product teams can compose rather than rebuild

• Enable self-service infrastructure for engineering teams through
