The role
In order to further expand our business, we are looking for a Software Architect for our Belgian office in Diepenbeek.
As a Software Architect, you won’t just write code, you’ll design the foundation that everything is built on. You’ll define how systems are structured, which technologies we use, and how we keep things secure, scalable, and future-ready. Your role is key to turning business goals into smart, technical solutions, helping development teams build high-quality software with confidence and clarity, not chaos. If you're passionate about clean architecture, smart decisions, and setting a strong direction for others to build on, this is your opportunity to make a lasting impact.
