"We are looking for an Integration SME to support a core banking transformation program for a client based in the

Philippines. Unlike the module-specific SME roles, this position owns integration design end-to-end across all core banking domains — Payments, Trade Finance, Lending, GL, and Markets — ensuring a coherent, well-documented integration architecture between the core banking platform and its upstream/downstream ecosystem.

This is a core banking implementation role. The candidate must have hands-on, end-to-end experience delivering core banking transformation programs (not advisory-only exposure), and must be comfortable working directly with product vendors to challenge, validate, and finalize the To-Be system design.

The candidate should be able to work across product SMEs, business stakeholders, the Solution Architecture team,

and platform vendors to design, document, and obtain sign-off on integration solutions, and should be comfortable being the cross-domain integration authority on the program.

Key Responsibilities

MULTIVENDOR, MULTI-COUNTRY TEAM




Act as the subject matter expert for cross-domain integration architecture during requirement analysis, solution

design, build, testing, and cutover phases.
Engage directly with product vendors and product SMEs (Trade, ACBS, CASA/Common Services, Payments,

Lead workshops with business stakeholders, interface teams, the Solution Architecture team, and platform

vendors to gather, validate, and finalize integration requirements.
Own preparation of Interface Specification Documents (ISDs) and integration architecture artifacts, and drive

review and sign-off with all upstream and downstream teams.
Coordinate integration testing (SIT/end-to-end) across domains, triage cross-system defects, and drive resolution

with vendors and delivery teams.
Support cutover planning and hypercare across all integrated domains through go-live.
Manage stakeholders across business, technology, and vendor teams, and proactively escalate cross-domain

integration risks and issues.
