Software Architect (Contractor) – Composable Commerce & Event-Driven Design

Overview

We’re looking for a Software Architect contractor with strong expertise in composable modular architecture and event-driven design to support the next evolution of Sharewise : our marketplace framework that helps entrepreneurs and small businesses launch world-class platforms faster.

This isn’t a “keep the lights on” role. You’ll be shaping the backbone of a framework designed to democratise marketplace creation and empower communities. Sharewise is built on 12+ years of CobbleWeb’s experience delivering high-performance marketplaces, and we’re now evolving it into a platform that is modular, event-driven, and future-ready.

Responsibilities

• Audit and strengthen module isolation (reduce hidden coupling).
• Push toward a stronger event-driven architecture (pub / sub over direct calls).
• Lay the foundation for customisation : moving from fragile inheritance overrides toward clear extension hooks, composition patterns, and well-documented integration points to enable developers to adapt and extend features without breaking core stability.
• Make the platform easier to scale, extend, and maintain for both internal teams and external developers.
