About the Role:

KantorKu is building the next-generation HRIS for Indonesian businesses — with real-time dashboards, payroll automation, and integrated services across HR and finance. We’re looking for a Software Architect with deep backend experience designing systems to handle 300K+ concurrent users during peak windows (e.g., 1 million active users checking in over a 2-hour span).

You’ll lead architectural design across multiple services — including complex calculations (e.g., payroll, benefits, compliance) — while ensuring scalability, performance, and maintainability.

What You’ll Do:

• Architect scalable, reliable systems that can handle millions of users across multiple services.
• Design and optimize real-time data flows, complex rule engines, and high-throughput APIs.
• Guide modular service design (Go-based microservices) with robust inter-service communication.
• Ensure high availability and security of the platform, including data consistency and auditability.
• Work closely with engineering, DevOps, and product teams to align system design with business goals.
• Management tasks.

Tech Stack:

• Golang, PostgreSQL, Redis, gRPC/REST
• Containerized services (Docker), CI/CD, Kubernetes (optional)
• Cloud infrastructure (AWS or GCP preferred)

Requirements:

• Proven experience architecting systems handling ~300K+ concurrent users or similar high-load environments.
• Strong proficiency in Golang, PostgreSQL, and backend performance optimization.
• Solid grasp of distributed systems, microservices, and event-driven architecture.
• Experience with business-critical logic (e.g., payroll, finance, compliance engines).
• Strong communicator with leadership instincts and hands-on builder mentality.

Bonus Points:

• Experience in HRIS, ERP, fintech, or payroll-related systems.

✅ What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of experience in software engineering, with at least 2–3 years in a systems/architecture role
• Deep knowledge of distributed systems, microservices, messaging queues, and system integration
• Strong backend engineering experience (e.g., Node.js, Go, Java, Python)
• Proficient in designing and scaling event-driven, API-first, or modular monolith architectures
• Fluency in cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP/Azure), Docker/K8s, CI/CD, and system observability
• Strong instincts around tradeoffs: performance vs cost, consistency vs availability, velocity vs maintainability
• Experience navigating and simplifying complex inter-team dependencies

💡 Bonus Points For:

• Experience designing internal developer platforms or shared services
• Familiarity with domain-driven design (DDD), system thinking, or evolutionary architecture
• Prior work in high-scale environments (millions of users or large datasets)
• Exposure to data pipelines, integrations, or compliance-driven architectures

🧠 Traits We Value

• Systems-thinker: sees the big picture and connects the dots
• Pragmatic builder: designs for the real world, not the whiteboard
• Challenger of complexity: simplifies without oversimplifying
