Senior Engineer- Platform

Consensus Cloud Solutions is a leading digital cloud fax and interoperability solutions organization. They are seeking a technical leader to drive the implementation of their next-generation eCommerce and customer experience platform, focusing on scalable and distributed web ecosystems while mentoring engineers and enforcing coding standards.

Responsibilities:

• Enable the high-level architecture and implementation of a highly scalable, distributed front-end ecosystem, utilizing modern modular architecture patterns to host independent functional applications
• Design and implement core platform services (Identity, Account, App Configuration, Entitlements) that serve as the foundation for all product teams, ensuring a unified and resilient customer experience
• Define and enforce strict coding standards, application lifecycle contracts, and integration patterns to ensure application isolation and memory optimization across the system
• Influence multiple product teams by establishing shared APIs product platforms
• Drive architectural improvements that ensure the platform remains performant, responsive, eliminating bottlenecks associated with large volume product client applications
• Serve as the technical authority for engineers; mentor senior engineers, review complex technical designs, and solve the deepest coding/debugging challenges related to state management and asynchronous loading, and coding standards
• Collaborate with DevOps to implement compliance-based deployment strategies that allow for atomic rollouts and instant rollbacks without requiring full platform regression testing
• Conduct strategic evaluations for new technologies and tools to improve developer velocity and long-term code health
• Contribute to the technical recruitment process to identify top-tier engineering talent
• Write high-level technical documentation and white papers to communicate design decisions to executive stakeholders and non-technical audiences
• Serve as a technical liaison between product management and engineering to ensure feasibility of roadmap items
• Perform other duties and responsibilities as required, assigned, or requested

Requirements:

• 10+ years of software engineering experience with a focus on high-scale web applications
• 8+ years design experience with a mastery of Java, Spring Frameworks, SQL, React, MFE, and modern frameworks with deep experience in component design and performance optimization
• Demonstrated success leading cross-functional technical initiatives or platform re-architecture projects
• Proven experience establishing engineering best practices, code quality standards, and technical roadmaps across multiple teams
• Leveraging AI tools like Q, Co-Pilot, Kiro, Claude to accelerate design and development
• Proven track record of reducing technical debt or improving developer velocity through redesign
• Strategic Influence: Ability to support multi-year technical strategy and influence direction across teams without direct authority
• Problem Solving: Proactively identifies systemic risks (e.g., single points of failure) and designs solutions to mitigate them before they impact productivity
• Communication: Expert capability in communicating complex design & architectural topics (whiteboarding systems with drill-down capability) to both engineering teams and executive leadership
• Autonomy: Takes ownership of significant, multi-team projects and drives them to completion with high standards for quality and detail
• Distributed Systems Architecture: Deep understanding of techniques for splitting code across distributed systems, lazy loading, and runtime integration
• Infrastructure & API: Experience designing secure API gateways, handling authentication, and managing complex data flow between client and server
• Experience working in regulated industries such as Legal, Healthcare, or FinTech
• Familiarity with legacy protocols (e.g., Fax, SIP) or bridging legacy systems with modern web interfaces
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes)
