高级架构师 (欧洲)
Senior Architect (Europe)
Arcanys是一家拥有300多名员工的私营公司，其中约有280名软件工程师、测试人员、项目经理、业务分析师和设计师在菲律宾。
表面上看，Arcanys只是一家普通的科技外包公司，但实际上它是行业先锋，既帮助初创企业和中型企业扩大开发团队，也通过其Arcanys Ventures部门对早期初创企业进行有意义的财务投资。
每年大约有10个新投资项目，Arcanys目前在欧洲有五位高级架构师，悉尼有一位。随着需求增加，我们正在寻找一位位于欧洲的额外高级架构师。
我们对兼职/按小时计酬或全职工作都持开放态度。我们更看重找到具备正确技能和思维方式的人，优先考虑全职。但如果你目前无法做到，兼职是一个很好的开始方式。
这个职位是做什么的？
我们投资需要工程团队的科技初创企业。我们的投入通常是3-4名软件工程师和几名兼职人员，以换取股权。
有时这些公司已经有强大的技术负责人，我们只需提供开发者和测试人员，但在其他情况下，他们缺乏强有力的工程技术负责人。这就是你的作用，基本上担任兼职首席技术官（CTO）。
这个角色具有挑战性，因为你需要与业务人员（通常是创始人）互动，对他们进行引导，保护开发团队，聚焦业务需求并将其转化为开发团队的需求。有时他们有产品经理，但并非总是如此，你可能需要部分承担该角色（我们可以安排业务分析师和/或用户体验设计师协助你）。
理想情况下，你会为2到3家公司担任兼职CTO（每家公司每月工作30到50小时），其余时间与我们的架构师团队合作，改进Arcanys的内部功能（招聘、培训、内部应用）。
我们可能还需要你帮忙：
- 偶尔与创始人或投资机会面对面会面
- 对潜在新投资项目进行技术代码审计
- 就你可能具备特定专业知识的其他项目提供建议
所需的技能/条件？
不可协商的条件
- 必须是Microsoft C# .NET或Nodejs的专家。
- 精通React（Angular或Vue是加分项）。
- 有Ionic和React Native经验是加分项。

Arcanys is a privately owned 300+ people company, with about 280 software engineers, QAs, PMs, BAs and designers in the Philippines.
While looking like just another technology outsourcing firm, Arcanys is at the forefront of the industry, both helping startups and mid-sized companies to scale their development team, and making meaningful financial investments in early stage startups with its Arcanys Ventures arm.
With a pace of approximately 10 new investments per year, Arcanys currently has a team of five senior architects based in Europe and one in Sydney. With increasing demand, we are looking to hire an additional senior architect based in Europe.
We are flexible with hiring someone part-time/hourly or full time. We care more about finding people with the right skillset and mindset, with a preference for full time. But if you can’t for now, part-time is a good way to start working together.
What’s this role about?
We are investing in tech startups that need engineering teams. Our contribution is usually a whole team of 3-4 software engineers and a few part-time people, in exchange for equity.
Sometimes the companies have a strong tech lead and all we need to provide them with are developers and QAs, but in other situations, they are lacking a strong technical lead. That is where you would come in, essentially acting as a fractional CTO.
The role is challenging because you essentially would be interacting with the business people (most often the founders) and try to rein them in, protect the dev team, focus the needs of the business and translate them to the dev team. Sometimes they have a product manager, but not always, and you may need to partially fill that role (and we can have a business analyst and/or a UX designer assist you).
Ideally, you would act as a fractional CTO for 2 to 3 companies (working between 30 to 50 hours per month per company) with the remaining time collaborating with our architect team on improving Arcanys’ internal functions (hiring, training, internal applications).
We might also need your help with:
- Meeting an occasional founder / investment opportunity in person
- Doing a technical code audit of a potential new investment
- Consult on other projects regarding specific expertise you may have
What are the required skills/conditions?
Non-negotiables
- Must be an expert in Microsoft C# .NET or Nodejs.
- Mastery of React (Angular or Vue are nice to have).
- Experience with Ionic & React Native would be a plus.
- Other interesting languages covered in a minority of our projects: Python, Java
Other requirements
- Minimum 15 years working experience in software development
- Extensive RDBMS experience, such as MySQL, MsSQL, MariaDB, or PostgreSQL
- Solid experience with Azure and AWS, good knowledge of DevOps is a plus
- Nice to haves would be any of these, for the rare project: Python, Kotlin, iOS Swift, Java (enterprise), Golang
What are the responsibilities?
It may be some of these, but not necessarily all of them:
- Interact with product owners to improve and translate requirements into realistic features
- Review software architecture and system design regularly
- Handle frequent code reviews and coach developers
- Perform code audits in potential client projects or investments
- Handle ad-hoc complex matters (e.g. coding, DevOps, etc).
- Help Arcanys with the continuous improvement and development of its teams
- As part of the architect team, help Arcanys with the continuous improvement and development of its teams
- Participate in occasional recruitment activities (exam reviews and interviews)
- Handle occasional research on the newest frameworks and technologies to help improve Arcanys training plans
As a company focused on its people's satisfaction first (and clients’ in close second), we make a point to offer exciting work opportunities and foster a culture to which everyone can meaningfully contribute.
All of this wrapped into great care for employees' welfare, recently ranked #25 on Fortune's 100 Best Companies to work in Southeast Asia, GreatPlaceToWork certified, Glassdoor ratings of 4.8/5, and Clutch Ratings of 5/5.
Working conditions:
- Mostly remote, with the occasional in person client meeting.
- Flexible working schedule. You can choose your working hours (within reason).
- Annual trip to visit your colleagues in the Philippines (Cebu)
- Flat management style and open-door policy - no micromanagement and your voice is being heard.
