This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Moldova.

📋 Description

• Break down legacy monolithic systems into agent-readable, modular frameworks with well-defined boundaries and a focus on single responsibility.

• Spearhead gradual modernization efforts utilizing the Strangler Pattern and contract-driven interfaces.

• Uphold SOLID principles, Dependency Injection, and Hexagonal Architecture.

• Design and oversee the agent context layer encompassing Skills, Rules, and Commands.

• Create and manage Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that transform legacy APIs, services, and databases into secure, AI-compatible tools.

• Take ownership of contract-first API design that bridges human intent and autonomous agent execution.

• Serve as the architectural gatekeeper for AI-generated pull requests.

• Enforce test-driven development (TDD) and characterization testing during the refactoring process.

• Track and enhance agentic reasoning loops for cost efficiency, speed, and architectural soundness.

• Revamp a decade-long legacy codebase into a high-velocity, agent-operable architecture.

⛳️ Requirements

• Over 7 years of experience in software architecture, platform engineering, or technical leadership.

• Demonstrated success in modernizing large, undocumented legacy systems.

• Extensive hands-on knowledge of TypeScript, .NET, and Node.js.

• Strong foundation in API design, distributed systems, and modular architectures.

• Practical experience with agentic development, MCP, LLM tooling, or AI-assisted engineering.

• A preference for clean code, deterministic systems, and production-level AI.

• Experience with remote-first or globally distributed teams is a plus.

• Background in SaaS transformations, scale-ups, or private equity-backed environments is advantageous.

• Comfort in high-ambiguity, high-ownership environments is desirable.
