Job Purpose
Translate enterprise direction into executable end-to-end solution designs across one or more PODs and provide hands-on technical governance.
Duties and Responsibilities
Responsibility Area Detailed Responsibilities Key Deliverables Success Measures / KPIs Cadence / Trigger
Solution Architecture Create end-to-end solution designs covering application, integration, data, infrastructure, security, and operations. HLD; solution diagrams; architecture decisions Design approval first-pass rate; delivery adherence to design For every initiative
Detailed Technical Design Guide or review LLDs, component boundaries, data models, API contracts, error handling, and deployment topology. LLD review; API specifications; data and sequence diagrams Design defects; rework caused by unclear design Before build starts and during refinement
Non-Functional Requirements Define measurable performance, scalability, availability, security, supportability, and observability requirements. NFR catalogue; capacity assumptions; acceptance thresholds NFR test pass rate; performance and availability targets achieved During discovery and before release
Engineering Standards Define and enforce coding, integration, logging, exception handling, configuration, branching, and review standards. Engineering standards; checklists; reusable templates Code-quality trend; standards compliance; escaped defects Continuous
Technical Leadership Provide design guidance, mentor developers, unblock complex technical issues, and facilitate technical spikes.



Technical recommendations; spike outcomes; mentoring notes Blocker resolution time; reduced rework; team capability uplift Daily / sprint cadence
Cross-POD Dependencies Identify interface and shared-service dependencies, agree ownership, sequencing, versioning, and backward compatibility. Dependency register; interface agreements; migration plan Dependency delivery on time; integration defect reduction Program increment and sprint planning
Security by Design Complete threat modelling, review identity and access, data protection, secrets, vulnerabilities, and security controls. Threat model; security control mapping; remediation actions Security findings closed; no critical release blockers Design and release gates
Performance and Reliability Review sizing, caching, concurrency, failover, retries, monitoring, and operational recovery patterns. Capacity model; resilience design; observability design Load-test success; incident reduction; MTTR improvement Design phase and pre-production
Technical Assurance Review code and implementation evidence for critical components; verify alignment between approved design and deployed solution. Assurance checklist; implementation deviations; technical sign-off Fewer production defects; controlled deviations Each release
Vendor and Product Assessment Evaluate vendor designs, licensing constraints, product fit,



extensibility, support, and integration impacts. Technical evaluation; gap analysis; recommendation Fit-to-requirement; vendor issue closure; cost-risk balance Procurement and change cycles
Key Decisions / Dimensions
• Technical architecture decisions and HLD sign-offs.
• Standard definitions for engineering practices, patterns, and component boundaries.
• Vendor/product technology stack fitment recommendations.|Business Volume: Support scalable platforms catering to large consumer portfolios.
Major Challenges
• Managing cross-POD dependencies and ensuring standard compliance across agile teams.
• Balancing fast-paced delivery schedules with strict non-functional and security standards.
• Evaluating complex vendor products to ensure architectural fitness and extensibility.
Required Qualifications and Experience
a) Qualifications
B.E. / B.Tech / M.Tech / MCA / Post Graduates with 8-12 years of salesforce technology and architectural experience.
b) Work Experience
• Proven experience as a Technical/Solution Architect in a high-scale financial services or enterprise domain.
• Deep understanding of end-to-end architecture (Application, Integration, Data, Security, and Infrastructure).
• Expertise in designing resilient, highly available, and scalable microservices architectures.
• Solid technical leadership, mentoring abilities, and experience driving engineering governance.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills to manage cross-POD dependencies effectively.
