About The Position

Under limited guidance, work at the business unit level developing the end-to-end solution architecture for significant initiatives in partnership with key business and IT stakeholders. Under limited supervision, define processes, collaborate with other architects, and create project level architectures for suites of applications. You will be joining a highly collaborative group of architects and developers, owners of highly utilized and important applications within supply chain operations and across all of FedEx. We are in the midst of an exciting modernization project that is key to operational success. Our team is at the beginning of an exciting journey, finding new ways to integrate AI into our daily work lives. We are leveraging modern AI design and coding tools to accelerate and streamline architecture and development of intelligent, cloud-native systems that optimize how packages move. Our culture thrives on curiosity, continuous learning, and collective ownership. If you are looking for a supportive environment where you can use cutting-edge technology to solve complex real-world operational challenges, you'll fit right in.

Requirements

  • Deep understanding of modern application architecture patterns (e.g., microservices, event-driven architecture, API design).
  • Firm grasp of defining system boundaries with considerations for integration testing and security compliance.
  • Willingness to occasionally be hands-on with code—this role goes beyond diagrams and planning.
  • Strong, expert-level knowledge of Java development and its modern ecosystems.
  • Hands-on experience designing and deploying applications in Google Cloud Platform (GCP), with specific attention to optimizing compute costs and reducing unnecessary transactions.
  • Comfortable using AI coding assistants (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or similar) as part of your everyday workflow for learning, building, and documenting.
  • Strong and flexible communicator who can seamlessly connect with business stakeholders, vendor teams, and developers to translate business needs into technical solutions. Collaborate and compromise with other stakeholders to bring solutions to the table and make meaningful impact now.
  • General knowledge of hardware, software, and network architecture dependencies.
  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, information Systems, business and/or equivalent formal training or work experience.
  • Five (5) years equivalent work experience in information technology or engineering environment. A related advanced degree may offset the related experience requirement.

Nice To Haves

  • AI Native knowledge and experience integrating AI/ML models into enterprise applications is a major plus.

Responsibilities

  • Architect scalable, resilient, and secure application ecosystems, leading the transition of legacy systems into modern, cloud-native architectures on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
  • Drive architectural decisions, lead system design reviews, and establish coding standards and best practices for the engineering teams.
  • Work closely with business, application, and data architects to evaluate products and projects, ensuring application designs align with strategic business initiatives and industry trends. Present solutions in a collaborative way to build consensus and alignment across stakeholders.
  • Use AI coding assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot) as a natural part of your daily workflow to accelerate design and implementation, draft documentation, and make sense of unfamiliar systems and codebases.
  • Ensure that all architectural designs and AI-assisted outputs are validated against enterprise needs, including security, compliance, performance, and reliability.
  • Actively mentor and support developers and less senior colleagues, fostering a culture of technical excellence.
  • Provide high-level technical advice and hands-on coding support to resolve complex production and integration challenges.
