The posting

Company Overview

Soros Fund Management LLC (SFM) is a global asset manager and family office founded by George Soros in 1973. With $28 billion in assets under management (AUM), SFM serves as the principal asset manager for the Open Society Foundations, one of the world’s largest charitable foundations dedicated to advancing justice, human rights, and democracy.

Distinct from other investment platforms, SFM thrives on agility, acting decisively when conviction is high and exercising patience when it’s not. With permanent capital, a select group of major clients, and an unconstrained mandate, we invest opportunistically with a long-term view in a wide range of strategies and asset classes, including public and private equity and credit, fixed income, foreign exchange, and alternative assets. Our teams operate with autonomy, while cross-team collaboration strengthens our conviction and empowers us to capitalize on market dislocations.

At SFM, we foster an ownership mindset, encouraging professionals to challenge the status quo, innovate, and take initiative. We prioritize development, enabling team members to push beyond their roles, voice bold ideas, and contribute to our long-term success. This culture of continuous growth and constructive debate fuels innovation and drives efficiencies.

Our impact is measured by both the returns we generate and the values we uphold, from environmental stewardship to social responsibility. Operating as a unified team across geographies and mandates, we remain committed to our mission, ensuring a meaningful, lasting impact.

Headquartered in New York City with offices in Greenwich, Garden City, London, and Dublin, SFM employs 200 professionals.

Job Overview

We're looking for a Technical Architect to own the technical direction of our platform — designing scalable, secure, and maintainable systems while guiding engineering teams on implementation. You'll bridge the gap between high-level business requirements and concrete technical solutions, working closely with engineering, product, and security to ensure our architecture supports both current needs and future growth.

Major Responsibilities

  • Design and document system architecture for new products and major features, balancing scalability, reliability, security, and cost
  • Set and evolve technical standards, patterns, and best practices across engineering teams
  • Champion engineering excellence across the organization, driving adoption of best practices in code quality, test quality, design patterns, and enterprise architecture patterns.
  • Define and promote testing strategy and standards (unit, integration, regression, chaos) across teams, ensuring quality is built into the architecture upfront
  • Evaluate and select technologies, frameworks, and services for new initiatives
  • Partner with engineering leads to review designs, identify risks, and unblock complex technical decisions
  • Lead architecture reviews for major projects, including security and compliance considerations
  • Drive decisions on system integration, data flow, and API design across services
  • Identify and address technical debt, performance bottlenecks, and scalability constraints
  • Mentor engineers on architectural thinking and system design
  • Guide the architecture and governance of AI/LLM initiatives, including model integration patterns, data usage, risk controls, and responsible AI practices.
  • Own architecture and governance for agentic applications — including skills/tooling management, model selection and lifecycle management, and cost efficiency and optimization across AI workloads
  • Collaborate with product and business stakeholders to translate requirements into technical roadmaps
  • Stay current with emerging technologies and assess their relevance to the organization's needs

What We Value

  • 12+ years of software engineering experience, including 5+ years in an architecture or technical leadership role
  • Deep experience designing distributed systems, microservices, or data mesh architectures
  • Strong knowledge of cloud infrastructure (AWS) and infrastructure-as-code practices
  • Proven track record of making and documenting architectural decisions (e.g., ADRs) at scale
  • Experience with system design trade-offs: consistency vs. availability, latency, throughput, cost
  • Strong understanding of security best practices, including identity/access management, encryption, and secrets management
  • Excellent communication skills — able to explain technical trade-offs to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), and modern DevOps practices
  • Experience working in the financial services industry, with working domain knowledge of financial instruments (equities, fixed income, derivatives, etc.), accounting/ledger principles, and market data systems and feeds.
  • Strong background in domain model design and Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles, including bounded contexts, aggregates, and ubiquitous language, with experience applying them to complex business domains
  • Expert-level knowledge of unit, integration, and regression testing frameworks and methodology, with experience embedding test strategy into architecture decisions
  • Experience architecting systems for trading, portfolio management, risk management, or accounting/reconciliation platforms
  • Working understanding of frontend technologies and frameworks (e.g., Angular, React) sufficient to make informed full-stack architecture decisions
  • General understanding of AI/LLM technologies and their application in enterprise systems (e.g., RAG, agentic workflows, model integration patterns)
  • Experience with data architecture, including data warehousing and pipeline design
  • Relevant certifications (e.g., AWS Solutions Architect Professional, TOGAF)
  • Prior experience leading architecture reviews or technical governance boards

We anticipate the base salary of this role to be between $200,000-250,000. In addition to a base salary, the successful candidate will also be eligible to receive a discretionary year-end bonus.

In all respects, candidates need to reflect the following SFM core values:

Smart risk-taking // Owner’s Mindset // Teamwork // Humility // Integrity

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
