Please note that we will only be able to accept candidates who have the appropriate rights and documentation for employment in India.

Who We Are.

Axi is a leading global provider of margin and deliverable Foreign Exchange, Contracts for Difference (CFDs), and Financial Spread betting. Our business has evolved into a world-class, multifaceted brokerage with offices in six regions. With heavy investment in the latest trading technology, Axi seeks to offer the most comprehensive end-to-end trading experience available, servicing traders of all levels from beginners to institutional-level clients.

Let's talk about the cool stuff you will do at Axi!

At Axi, we’re looking for a passionate and forward-thinking Senior Software Architect to lead the design and development of high-quality, scalable software solutions across our global platforms. You will play a key role in setting the architectural vision, guiding best practices, and enabling cross-team collaboration to ensure our systems are robust, secure, and aligned with business goals.

In this role, you’ll collaborate with technical leads and subject matter experts, shaping architectural blueprints and roadmaps, while also mentoring developers and promoting excellence in engineering practices. This is a hands-on position ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of design and code—bringing architectural vision to life with clean, efficient, and maintainable solutions.

Your EDGE Assignment/You Will

  • Define and document target architecture blueprints and patterns for .NET Core microservices, React/React Native frontends, and Azure cloud infrastructure.
  • Guide the design of high-availability, low-latency systems including API gateways, messaging architecture, caching strategies, and circuit breaker patterns for trading platforms.
  • Establish observability standards: structured logging, distributed tracing, metrics, SLOs, and alerting practices across the organization.
  • Lead architecture reviews, threat modeling, and Proofs of Concept for significant initiatives, evaluating technology choices and design trade-offs.
  • Advise on Kubernetes (AKS) strategies, containerization, container registries, and deployment patterns (GitOps, blue-green, canary).
  • Define infrastructure-as-code standards, CI/CD pipeline architecture, and DevOps tooling to enable safe, fast deployments.
  • Guide data architecture decisions across SQL Server, Cosmos DB, Databricks, and data lake storage for transactional and analytical workloads.
  • Partner with Security and Compliance teams on architectural security, regulatory requirements, and audit-friendly designs.
  • Mentor senior engineers, architects in training, and technical leads to grow architectural maturity across the organization.

Technical Requirement

  • Deep knowledge of .NET Core microservices, Domain-Driven Design (DDD), Clean Architecture, CQRS, and event-driven design patterns.
  • Expert-level Azure experience: App Services, AKS (Kubernetes), Service Bus, Event Grid, API Management, Cosmos DB, SQL Database, Key Vault, Storage, monitoring (Application Insights).
  • Strong Kubernetes/AKS expertise: cluster design, networking, security (RBAC, network policies), resource management, autoscaling, and GitOps principles (FluxCD, ArgoCD).
  • Solid understanding of DevOps: CI/CD pipelines (Azure Pipelines, GitHub Actions), infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, ARM templates), containerization (Docker), and deployment patterns.
  • Experience designing resilient systems: circuit breakers, retries, bulkheads, timeouts, fallbacks, and chaos engineering practices.
  • Strong grasp of observability: structured logging, distributed tracing (Application Insights, OpenTelemetry), metrics (Prometheus), and alerting (e.g., Azure Monitor, Datadog).
  • Knowledge of security architecture: API security (OAuth2, JWT, mTLS), secrets management, encryption, and defense-in-depth strategies.
  • Experience with data architecture patterns and considerations (OLTP/OLAP, relational/NoSQL, eventual consistency).

Are you the one?

  • 7–14+ years of software engineering with significant architectural leadership and hands-on technical depth.
  • Proven track record architecting and operating large-scale, distributed systems in production (ideally fintech, trading, or other mission-critical domains).
  • Strong ability to communicate complex architecture and design decisions to both technical teams and executive stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated influence over organizational practices, standards, and technology choices across multiple teams and geographies.
  • Comfort with ambiguity and ability to evaluate trade-offs between innovation, performance, cost, and regulatory requirements.

Axi's bag of delights

  • Competitive and attractive compensation.
  • Extensive learning opportunities, such as professional training and certifications and soft skills development.
  • 18 annual leave days per year.
  • 12 sick days leave per year.
  • Public holidays as declared by local government.
  • Maternity leave as per law.
  • Health Insurance.

Axi's interview journey

  • Talent Acquisition Interview + AI Interview (60 minutes)
  • Hiring Manager Exploratory Discussion (45 mins)
  • Architecture Round I (60 - 75 minutes)
  • Architecture Round II (60 - 75 minutes)
  • Cross Functional and Culture Fit (60 minutes)

Please note that our organization works with recruitment agencies on a pre-approved basis only. A recruitment agency that wishes to submit candidate profiles or resumes for consideration must obtain prior written consent from our talent acquisition team. We do not accept unsolicited resumes from recruitment agencies, and we will not be responsible for any fees related to unsolicited resumes. Should we receive an unsolicited resume from a recruitment agency that does not have prior written consent, we will not be responsible for the payment of any fees related to the recruitment of the candidate represented in the unsolicited resume.

At Axi, we prioritize creating a workplace that upholds fairness and respect for all. We encourage every individual within our community to contribute towards a culture where everyone feels a sense of belonging and is treated with the dignity they deserve. We make all employment-related decisions—whether in hiring, compensation, training, performance reviews, or termination—based on merit and without bias, ensuring equal opportunities for everyone. We consciously work to identify and overcome any unconscious biases, with a commitment to fostering an inclusive environment where every employee and candidate feels genuinely welcomed and valued.
