architecture components. * Lead architectural reviews and provide expert guidance on system design, integration patterns, reliability, maintainability, performance, and operational readiness. * Translate complex tax rules, compliance requirements, and financial workflows into clear technical models that engineering teams can build, evolve, and operate effectively. * Analyze Agoda’s current Tax technology landscape, identify systemic risks, duplication, inefficiencies, and modernization opportunities, and define practical transition paths toward the future state. * Establish and evolve architecture principles, engineering standards, documentation, and governance practices that improve quality without slowing delivery. * Drive improvements in quality, velocity, cost efficiency, scalability, and developer productivity across Tax-related systems and adjacent FinTech platforms. * Mentor and influence senior engineers, Staff engineers, and technical leads, raising engineering fundamentals across design, code quality, testing, observability, and production ownership. * Communicate complex technical trade-offs clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders, including senior leaders across Finance, Product, Engineering, and Technology. * Effectively utilize AI to achieve all the above, including contributions in building the solutions you helped design. **What you’ll Need to Succeed:** * **10+ years**of experience in software engineering, architecture, or technology leadership roles, with a strong track record of designing and evolving complex production systems. * **3+ years**of hands-on experience delivering tax-related technology projects across direct or indirect tax domains, or closely related finance technology domains, including building or

auditability. * Proven ability to shape technical strategy and architecture roadmaps across multiple teams, systems, or business domains. * Strong hands-on engineering background, with deep understanding of system design, APIs, data flows, integration patterns, reliability, observability, scalability, and operational trade-offs for mission-critical systems, including high-volume

engineering plans. * Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to explain complex technical trade-offs to senior engineering, product, finance, and business leaders. * Proven ability to mentor and influence senior engineers, Staff engineers, technical leads, and cross-functional teams without relying on direct reporting authority. * Strong ownership mindset, with a track record of identifying systemic risks, reducing duplication, improving engineering quality, and driving pragmatic modernization. **It’s Great if you have:** * Experience designing or modernizing global tax platforms that support multiple jurisdictions, products, currencies, and regulatory models. * Deep experience with tax engines or tax automation platforms such as Avalara, Vertex, OneSource, or equivalent custom-built solutions. * Experience with ERP systems, financial ledgers, invoicing, billing, reconciliation, or other finance platform integration points. * Familiarity with event-driven architecture, streaming, or middleware integration technologies * Experience with cloud-native architecture patterns, distributed systems, Kubernetes/EKS, serverless platforms, or large-scale service-oriented architectures. * Understanding of data privacy, auditability, financial controls, and compliance frameworks such as GDPR, CCPA, SOX, or equivalent regulatory controls. *
