Role Overview

We are seeking experienced Technical Delivery Managers who can independently lead end-to-end implementation of enterprise-scale risk platforms for banking clients.

This role requires a hands-on leader who combines solution architecture capability, strong delivery governance, and customer-facing leadership to drive successful project execution from pre-sales through go-live and stabilization.

You are expected to own the technical delivery outcome, not just coordinate—covering solution design, integration architecture, implementation strategy, and production readiness.

Key Responsibilities

1. End-to-End Technical Delivery Ownership

• Lead full lifecycle delivery: solution design implementation integration UAT go-live stabilization
• Act as the technical authority for customer projects, ensuring scalable and production-ready solutions
• Drive on-time, on-quality delivery under complex, multi-stakeholder environments (client IT, vendors, partners)

2. Solution & Architecture Design

• Translate business requirements into end-to-end technical solutions
• Design architectures across:
  • Risk decision engines and rule systems
  • Data integration (batch/real-time APIs, streaming)
  • Distributed systems (Kafka, Redis, ES, etc.)
  • On-premise / private cloud / hybrid deployments
• Define high availability, performance, and security architecture aligned with banking standards

3. Implementation & Integration Leadership

• Lead integration with client systems: core banking, LOS, payment systems, data platforms
• Define data models, API contracts, and system interaction patterns
• Guide teams on customization vs. standard product usage, ensuring maintainability and scalability

4. Customer Engagement & Stakeholder Management

• Act as primary technical interface to client architects, CIO teams, and delivery partners
• Drive technical workshops, architecture reviews, and design approvals
• Manage expectations and resolve complex technical escalations

5. Delivery Governance & Risk Control

• Establish delivery plans, milestones, and technical checkpoints
• Identify and mitigate risks in performance, scalability, and integration complexity
• Ensure production readiness, including deployment, rollback, monitoring, and support handover

6. Post-Go-Live & Continuous Improvement

• Support stabilization phase and critical issue resolution
• Drive root cause analysis (RCA) and system optimization
• Contribute to delivery best practices, reusable architectures, and standardization

Required Qualifications

Experience

• 8-15+ years in enterprise software delivery / system integration
• Proven experience delivering banking or financial systems (risk, fraud, credit, payments, or core systems)
• Demonstrated ability to lead large-scale implementation projects independently

Technical Expertise

• Strong architecture experience in:
  • Distributed systems and microservices
  • API design (REST/gRPC)
  • Data processing (real-time & batch)
• Familiar with technologies such as:
  • Kafka / MQ, Redis, Elasticsearch
  • Relational & NoSQL databases
  • Cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/GCP) and on-prem deployments
• Solid understanding of:
  • System integration patterns
  • High availability & scalability design
  • Security and compliance in banking environments

Delivery & Leadership

• Strong project execution capability with clear ownership mindset
• Ability to manage cross-functional and cross-cultural teams
• Excellent problem-solving and escalation handling skills

Communication

• Strong client-facing communication skills
• Ability to engage with senior stakeholders (Architects, CIO, CTO)
• Fluent in English (additional local language is a plus)

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in risk control, anti-fraud, or decision engine platforms
• Background in consulting firms or SI companies
• Familiarity with regulatory and compliance requirements in Southeast Asia banking
• Experience working in multi-country delivery environments

What Success Looks Like

• Able to independently lead a project from kickoff to go-live within 3 months
• Deliver production-stable systems with minimal post-go-live incidents
• Build strong technical trust with client stakeholders
• Balance standard product adoption vs. customization effectively
