EPAM is seeking to strengthen our Architecture and Technology Consulting Practice in Paris with the addition of a Solution Architect who brings a comprehensive blend of technical and consultative skills to lead the design, development and evolution of our client's web platform.

The portal is built on modern technologies, including Node.js, Angular, and a microservice architecture powered by AWS Lambda serverless framework, delivering scalability and flexibility. This client Alliance integrates budget-sharing, resources and best practices, creating substantial value in terms of developing a portal that lets their employees discover, share data assets across and help with governance within the organisations.
