Senior Event Driven Software Architect, Stockholm

A partner company is strengthening its team, and Nordic Investin is recruiting a Senior Event Driven Software Architect. You want technical choices, delivery and production behaviour to reinforce each other, even when the constraints are difficult.

The partner is strengthening its capability in evolutionary architecture for event-driven product ecosystems. You will connect domain modelling, event contracts and Kafka while ensuring that API strategy and cloud patterns receive appropriate discipline. The aim is practical progress that colleagues can use, leaders can evaluate and the organisation can sustain.

The environment rewards early questions, visible trade-offs and engineering discipline. Security and operability belong in the design.

You will work with product, architecture, security, operations and domain colleagues. The partner values short feedback loops, evidence from real systems and direct communication.

This role calls for independent judgement and the ability to raise the quality around you. You are expected to make trade-offs visible, recognise when a decision needs wider expertise and move work forward without creating unnecessary process.

Own the practical direction for evolutionary architecture for event-driven product ecosystems.

Translate goals and constraints into a clear approach for domain modelling and event contracts.

Establish useful standards, routines or decision artefacts around Kafka.

Coordinate stakeholders and dependencies affecting API strategy.

Use evidence and measurable outcomes to improve cloud patterns.

Strengthen knowledge sharing and sustainable ownership through architecture governance.

Relevant experience delivering evolutionary architecture for event-driven product ecosystems in a demanding environment.

Strong working knowledge of domain modelling and event contracts.

Practical experience applying Kafka and API strategy.

Ability to assess priorities, risks and trade-offs involving cloud patterns.

Evidence of clear stakeholder communication and dependable end-to-end ownership.

Professional English and the judgement to work with sensitive or business-critical information.

Experience that would add value

Experience from large digital product organisations.

Exposure to architecture governance in a cross-functional or multi-team environment.

Swedish language skills or experience working across Nordic organisations.

A background that can succeed here

Your background may be product engineering, platform work, enterprise technology or consulting. What matters is technical depth connected to user and business consequences. Direct experience of evolutionary architecture for event-driven product ecosystems is valuable, while adjacent experience counts when it shows transferable judgement.
