Technical Architect (Client-Facing Role)
Job Overview
We are seeking a highly experienced Client-Facing Technical Architect to join our team of experts in delivering scalable, microservices-based enterprise solutions across a diverse customer base—with a strong focus on regulated and complex environments such as banking and financial services.
In this role, you will act as a technical leader, trusted advisor, and architecture expert. You will work closely with C-level executive and technical stakeholders (including CIOs,
Infrastructure Heads, Security leads, and DevOps teams) to drive successful implementations of our productized microservice solutions. You will leverage a deep understanding of enterprise systems, infrastructure, DevOps, security, and application architecture to translate complex customer requirements into robust architectural solutions aligned with their identity,
observability, integration, and deployment landscapes.
Key Responsibilities
Solution Architecture & Governance
End-to-End Architecture Design: Lead solution architecture designs for client implementations based on our core microservices platform.
System
Design & Resilience: Architect systems with a focus on scale, high availability, resilience, and security, with the confidence to present and defend architectural design decisions.
Architecture Governance: Drive technical workshops, architectural governance, and comprehensive solution reviews with client stakeholders. Blueprints & BoMs: Own architectural blueprints and the Bill of Materials (BoM),
tailoring deployment models to fit client infrastructure across on-premises, cloud, or hybrid environments.
Modernization & Client Integration
Monolith-to-Microservices Migration:
Leverage experience with legacy J2EE monolithic architectures to define, architect, and execute clear migration paths to modern microservices. System Integrations: Seamlessly integrate modern solutions with enterprise customer systems, including IAM/SSO platforms, data infrastructure (PostgreSQL,
Oracle DB), and messaging systems (Apache Kafka, ActiveMQ). Observability & Security Setup: Align solution architecture with enterprise observability stacks (e.g., ELK, Prometheus, Dynatrace, Splunk) and banking-grade security components. AI Adoption: Identify opportunities and drive strategies for adopting AI capabilities within solution architectures.
Stakeholder Management & Collaboration
Client Engagement: Interface directly with client stakeholders across architecture,
security, DevOps, and business units to unpack requirements and constraints. Cross-Functional Alignment: Collaborate with internal engineering and delivery teams to ensure end-to-end execution remains robust and aligned with client requirements. DevOps Guidance: Guide client teams through containerized deployments (Docker,
Kubernetes), CI/CD workflows, and DevSecOps best practices. Forward-Looking Advisory: Stay at the forefront of evolving enterprise tech stacks to offer continuous, strategic guidance to both clients and internal product teams.
Required Qualifications & Experience
Experience:
12–15 years of experience in enterprise architecture, solution design, and technical delivery within customer-facing roles. Microservices & Frameworks: Deep hands-on and architectural proficiency in microservices design patterns and Spring-based frameworks (Spring Boot, Spring
Cloud). Legacy Systems: Hands-on experience with J2EE Monolithic architectures and proven execution of migration strategies. Databases & Messaging: Technical depth in relational databases (PostgreSQL,
Oracle DB) and asynchronous messaging systems (Apache Kafka, ActiveMQ). DevOps & Containers: Solid grasp of DevOps methodologies, containerization
(Docker, Kubernetes), and contemporary CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitOps). Identity & Security: Proven record of integrating architectures with enterprise IAM systems (OAuth2, SAML, LDAP) and navigating strict security frameworks. Observability: Practical experience structuring solutions around enterprise observability and monitoring suites (Prometheus, Grafana, AppDynamics, Splunk,
Dynatrace, ELK). Infrastructure Knowledge: Comprehensive understanding of enterprise infrastructure topology across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments.
Soft Skills & Working Conditions
Communication: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills with proven experience creating and presenting architecture diagrams, BoMs, and technical documentation. Stakeholder Management: Strong interpersonal skills to manage, consult, and influence senior business and technical leaders. Industry Focus: Prior experience delivering solutions within banking, financial services, or other highly regulated industries is a major plus. Travel: Willingness to travel to client sites as required.
