Software ArchitectOverviewAs a Software Architect at RGI, you will contribute to the design, development and evolution of our insurance platforms while remaining closely involved in hands-on delivery.
You will work with Product Owners, Delivery Managers and senior technical colleagues to translate requirements into robust solutions, resolve complex technical issues and support the gradual evolution of the application architecture.
This opportunity is particularly suited to an experienced Java developer who is ready to take a broader role in technical design and architecture, rather than someone who has already moved away from hands-on development.
Key ResponsibilitiesDesign, develop and prototype Java / JavaEE solutions across the application stackAnalyse functional requirements and translate them into practical technical designsInvestigate and resolve complex application, integration and performance issuesContribute to technical choices, integration patterns and the progressive evolution of the platform architectureSupport development teams through code reviews, troubleshooting and the definition of engineering best practicesWork with containerised environments, CI/CD pipelines and observability tooling throughout the delivery lifecycleCollaborate with Product, Delivery and IT teams to support secure, reliable and maintainable releasesProfessional Experience4+ years of hands-on experience in Java / JavaEE software developmentStrong experience delivering and supporting complex enterprise applicationsExposure to technical design, solution definition or mentoring other developers; previous formal architect experience is not requiredExperience in structured environments or service companies; knowledge of insurance or banking is an advantageTechnical ExpertiseStrong hands-on knowledge of Java / JavaEE, including development and complex problem determinationPractical experience with Maven and modern Java build and dependency-management practicesExperience with REST APIs,
