Cyres is our client’s Data Acquisition and Control System (DACS). It integrates a comprehensive suite of hardware and software components essential for conducting and validating engine tests.

The system supports the entire test lifecycle, including:

▪ System configuration and calibration,

▪ Acquisition and computation of engine and facility parameters,

▪ Real-time monitoring and printing of certification reports,

As Cyres evolves to meet new technological and performance challenges, we are seeking a Senior Software Architect to lead the transformation of its architecture—modernizing and modulating the platform by transitioning to a microservices-based approach.

What You’ll Do:

▪ Design and oversee the Cyres transformation into scalable, secure, and maintainable microservices architecture.

▪ Define architectural standards, best practices, and governance models.

▪ Evaluate and recommend tools, technologies, and frameworks to support our evolving Cyres software suite.

▪ Mentor and guide development team on architectural principles and technical excellence.

▪ Lead architectural reviews and ensure compliance with design standards.

What You’ll Bring:

▪ Master’s degree in Software or Electronic Engineering.

▪ 10+ years of experience in software architecture, with a strong focus on microservices.

▪ Deep expertise in distributed systems, service orchestration, and API design (REST, gRPC).

▪ Strong understanding of architectural patterns, software design principles, and agile development methodologies.

▪ Experience with domain-driven design (DDD), event-driven architectures (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ), and CQRS.

▪ Proficient in major programming languages including C/C++, C#, Java, and Python.

▪ Solid knowledge of SQL and NoSQL databases, message queues, caching systems, and reverse proxies.

▪ Proficiency with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure) and containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).

▪ Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, DevOps practices, and infrastructure as code.

▪ Solid understanding of network protocols, infrastructure management, and cybersecurity best practices in microservices environments.

▪ Excellent communication skills in both French and English
