Technology is at the core of how we create connections and scale our business. Much of the software running Aurora Live is proprietary, covering both customer-facing services and the internal tools our teams use every day.\n\nWe are now looking for a Lead Software Architect to help us build the next generation of our software in an AI-native way.\n\nIn this role you own the big picture of our software architecture — how our proprietary applications, data models, integrations and APIs connect, and how the overall architecture should evolve. In this role you also roll up your sleeves, work with the codebase, prototype solutions, review implementation, solve technical problems and work closely with the development team.\n\nYour responsibilities include:\n\nLead our transition towards AI-native software development, using AI coding agents and modern development tools as part of everyday engineering.\n\nMake our architecture increasingly AI-readable, including clear data models, APIs, system boundaries and technical documentation.\n\nDefine and evolve architecture across our applications, integrations, data and APIs.\n\nStay hands-on through prototyping, code reviews, technical problem-solving and selected development work.\n\nChallenge unnecessary custom development and find the smartest solution: build, buy, integrate or automate.\n\nImprove scalability, security, maintainability and technical quality across the software estate.\n\nReduce technical debt pragmatically while keeping the business moving.\n\nCoach developers and raise the technical bar across the team.\n\nWhat we are looking for:\n\nYou are an experienced software architect or senior engineer who has designed complex systems but still enjoys building things yourself.\n\nYou have strong experience in areas such as:\n\nTypeScript / JavaScript\n\nModern front-end frameworks such as React, Angular or Vue\n\nNode.js and server-side development\n\nRelational databases\n\nAPIs, REST and/or GraphQL\n\nAWS Cloud platforms and Services (EC2, ECS, Lambda, VPC, API Gateway, Route53…)\n\nDocker, Git, CI/CD and modern DevOps practices\n\nIntegrations, data flows and distributed systems\n\nSecurity, authorization and scalable application architecture\n\nExperience with CRM systems (like HubSpot) and automation technologies (like n8n or Robot Framework) is a plus\n\nStrong communication and problem-solving skills\n\nA team-oriented mindset, eager to share knowledge, coach and collaborate with others\n\nMost importantly, AI-assisted software development is already part of how you work. You understand how tools such as Claude Code, Codex and other AI coding agents change software design, development, testing and documentation — and you want to push this much further.\n\nWhy Aurora Live?\n\nYou will join a growth company where technology is directly connected to business development and where there is substantial opportunity to influence future architecture.\n\nWe are not looking for someone to maintain a finished system landscape. We are looking for someone who wants to build, simplify, modernize and shape what comes next.\n\nIf you like combining architect-level thinking with hands-on engineering, this could be a very interesting role for you!\n\nWhat We Offer\n\nGrowth and learning: From day one, you’ll benefit from a structured onboarding program and continuous coaching ensuring you’re always developing.\n\nRecharge & Thrive: We care about your well-being and want you to stay energized both inside and outside of work. That’s why you can earn up to 12 extra vacation days each year and enjoy local perks such as gym and massage discounts, along with lunch vouchers, culture and sport benefit, social gatherings and events.\n\nWe win together: Collaboration is our driving force, and every success is shared. That’s why we love bringing people together through company trips, international events, and local office celebrations — whether it’s hitting the slopes in Levi, running the Berlin Marathon together, or celebrating milestones across our offices in Europe.\n\nAnnual company trip: Every summer, all employees from our different offices come together in Finland for an exciting time - a mix of team building, knowledge exchange, and celebrations.\n\nGlobal Community & Diversity: Diversity is part of our DNA. With colleagues from over 50 nationalities, you’ll join an international community where every culture, perspective, and background fuels innovation and success.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4554,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-14T08:57:00Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":3,"expected_fill_days":26,"reasons":["seen:3","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/auroralive-lead-software-architect-ai-native-development","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/auroralive-lead-software-architect-ai-native-development.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-17T17:30:59Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":24056,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-18T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":448886},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=448886"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fauroralive-lead-software-architect-ai-native-development"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fauroralive-lead-software-architect-ai-native-development"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fauroralive-lead-software-architect-ai-native-development"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/auroralive-lead-software-architect-ai-native-development\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fauroralive-lead-software-architect-ai-native-development"}]}
