We welcome candidates passionate about innovation, committed to continuous learning, and eager to contribute to a collaborative culture where diverse perspectives drive exceptional technology solutions.

Key Responsibilities

• Define, design, and oversee the comprehensive solution architecture for Capital Markets applications, ensuring that deliverables meet both functional and non-functional requirements such as scalability, security, and compliance.
• Leverage expertise in Microsoft Azure and Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) to craft cloud-native architectures that are fault-tolerant, cost-effective, and designed for high availability.
• Architect event-driven systems using Apache Kafka, implementing best practices in messaging and event processing to enable real-time data flows and decoupled system components.
• Design Microservices architectures focused on modularity, with a clear API strategy that facilitates seamless integration across platforms and third-party services.
• Lead and facilitate architecture working sessions and technical governance reviews to maintain consistency and quality across projects.
• Develop detailed documentation including high-level and low-level designs (HLDs, LLDs), system architecture diagrams, and long-term technology roadmaps to guide development and operational teams.
• Champion migration and modernization projects to transition legacy systems to cloud-native solutions, improving maintainability, scalability, and performance.
• Ensure all technology solutions adhere to strict security standards, regulatory compliance, and enterprise resiliency frameworks.
• Mentor software development teams, promoting engineering excellence through coding standards, design patterns, and agile methodologies.
• Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams including business analysts, QA, DevOps, and infrastructure to ensure smooth delivery from concept through deployment.

Engage proactively with client stakeholders through structured workshops and interviews to capture detailed requirements that accurately reflect the business context and technical needs. Translate these into clear, actionable technical specifications while ensuring alignment with architectural best practices.

Design and implement high-quality, modular, and reusable Java code modules that integrate seamlessly with existing systems, adhering strictly to coding standards and security guidelines. Collaborate closely with peer developers to ensure code coherence and maintainability.

Drive continuous improvement by participating in code reviews, static code analysis, and refactoring initiatives to enhance solution robustness and performance.

Testing, Implementation, and Documentation

Take ownership of testing protocols for individual modules, overseeing unit tests, integration testing, and collaborating in system-wide user acceptance testing (UAT) to ensure comprehensive validation of software solutions.

Partner with DevOps and QA teams to facilitate smooth deployment pipelines and release management practices that minimize downtime and operational risks. Provide ongoing support to resolve issues during implementation phases.

Produce thorough documentation including project blueprints, component specifications, workflow diagrams, technical manuals, and inline code comments. Maintain these resources up to date to support supportability, future maintenance, and knowledge transfer.
