At TBAuctions, we’re building the future of online auctions with a modern, scalable, cloud-native platform. As our new Platform Architect, you’ll shape the foundation of our tech landscape; designing architecture that’s built to last, made to scale, and ready to evolve.
You’ll collaborate closely with product, engineering, and DevOps teams. You'll mentor developers, align squads on long-term decisions, and set the guardrails for reliable, secure, and high-performing systems. You don’t just draw diagrams, you make things real.
What you will do:
As our Platform Architect you’ll take the lead on platform-wide technical strategy and empower teams to make great engineering decisions. In short: you connect the dots, design the system, and make sure it works, now and in the future.
Own and design the cloud-native architecture for our scalable auction platform
Align development squads on best practices, tech choices, and system-wide decisions
Guide developers on architectural thinking and platform-level patterns
Collaborate with Product Managers to turn business needs into smart technical solutions
Integrate with DevOps on cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and observability tooling
What you bring:
We’re looking for a Platform Architect who sees the big picture but doesn’t mind diving into details. Someone who enjoys coaching, challenging assumptions, and shaping a long-term vision with others.
Proven experience in designing distributed, microservice-based systems (8+ years in engineering, 3+ as architect)
Deep knowledge of cloud environments (AWS, Azure or GCP), containers, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure-as-Code
Solid programming background (e.g. Java, Kotlin, Go)
Strong communicator, comfortable leading cross-team technical discussions
A hands-on, pragmatic mindset—driven by outcomes, not complexity
If you don’t check every box, we still encourage you to apply. At TBAuctions, we value eagerness to learn and grow more than just ticking all the qualifications.

- Independent and varied role within an entrepreneurial and innovative organization
- Competitive salary
- Good pension scheme
- Bonus scheme (up to 1 gross monthly salary per year)
- 25 vacation days
