Team: Delivery Services

The Role:

As part of the Guidewire Services Center (GSC), a center of excellence within our Delivery Services team, you will work closely with internal Guidewire teams, our customers, and our partners to design solutions and to configure and integrate our products across the globe.

Architects also have a role in building a culture of innovation and in driving quality and continuous improvement at the GSC.

  • Deep understanding of the principles and patterns of object-oriented design
  • Effective verbal communication and interpersonal skills
  • Effective writing skills for drafting technical documentation and for explaining technical problems and solutions for both technical and non-technical audiences

  • Experience leading and mentoring technical teams
  • Knowledge of code review best practice (tools and techniques)
  • Experience with source control, branching, unit testing, static code analysis, and other development tools and frameworks, such as Cucumber, Karate, and SonarQube.
  • Exposure to cloud technologies a plus
  • Comfortable with occasional international travel
