Role: Techno-Functional Solution Architect
Hybrid 3 days
Looking for only Immediate joiners

We are looking for a strong Techno-Functional Solution Architect to provide architecture leadership across projects within the Trade & Settlement Technology capability. The Solution Architect will support multiple application and project teams concurrently, with primary focus on initiatives requiring Architecture Review Board reviews and other governance approvals. The Solution Architect will work primarily with application and project teams, gathering required inputs from infrastructure, network, security, data, testing, vendor and other specialist teams. Following approval, the architect will provide implementation assurance through design and architecture reviews to verify that delivery remains aligned with the approved solution. This is an architecture oversight and assurance role and does not require hands-on development, testing or implementation. The architect will also represent the application architecture perspective for test-automation initiatives and work with the Software Quality Management Automation Architect and delivery teams to ensure automation solutions align with the overall application and solution architecture. This is a highly visible role requiring strong technical depth, solution ownership, stakeholder management, governance experience and the ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Own and define the end-to-end solution architecture for assigned Trade & Settlement projects.
Support multiple projects and application teams concurrently, prioritizing initiatives that require architecture and governance approvals.
Define application, integration, data, infrastructure,



security and operational architecture considerations applicable to the solution.
Evaluate alternative solution approaches and make recommendations based on business value, security, scalability, resilience, performance, maintainability, cost, delivery risk and alignment with enterprise standards.
Act as the primary architecture owner and technical authority for the solution throughout the project lifecycle.
Identify cross-application impacts, dependencies, constraints, assumptions and architecture risks at an early stage.
Represent Trade & Settlement application and project teams in Architecture Review Boards and all other forums requiring architecture-related review or approval.
Personally own the preparation, quality and maintenance of architecture and governance artifacts.
Develop solution architecture documents, architecture diagrams, system-context diagrams, integration and data-flow diagrams, technical decision records, risk assessments and other artifacts required by governance forums.
Coordinate with application, project, infrastructure, network, security, data, testing, vendor and other specialist teams to gather the information required for governance submissions.
Address questions, conditions, risks, recommendations and actions raised by governance bodies.
Track governance actions and drive them to closure in collaboration with the relevant application and project teams.
Ensure that governance approvals, conditions and architecture decisions are appropriately documented and communicated to implementation teams.
Implementation Assurance
Review detailed designs and implementation approaches to confirm alignment with the approved architecture.
Provide architecture guidance to application, engineering, testing, infrastructure, network, data, DevOps and vendor teams during implementation.
Ensure that architecture risks,



approval conditions and non-functional requirements are addressed before implementation.
Support deployment-readiness and implementation reviews from an architecture perspective.
This role provides architecture oversight and assurance and does not require hands-on development, testing, deployment or implementation activities.
Work with the Software Quality Management Automation Architect, application teams and testing teams to ensure proposed automation solutions align with application and enterprise architecture.
Provide guidance on application interfaces, integration points, test environments, test data, dependencies, security requirements and architectural constraints relevant to automation.
Help teams identify critical business flows, integration scenarios, failure conditions and non-functional requirements that should be considered in the automation approach.
The Solution Architect will not own automation framework development or hands-on test-script creation.
Work primarily with Trade & Settlement application owners, project managers, business analysts, engineering leads and testing teams.
Coordinate with infrastructure, network, security, data protection, data architecture, operational support, enterprise architecture and other specialist teams as required.
Act as the architecture bridge between application teams, project teams, specialist technology teams and governance bodies.
Communicate complex architecture decisions in transparent business and technical language.
Escalate unresolved architecture risks, dependencies and decisions to the appropriate project or capability leadership.
Manage competing project priorities while maintaining the quality and timeliness of architecture deliverables.
Ensure that solutions comply with relevant enterprise architecture principles, security requirements, data-protection requirements, technology standards and governance expectations.
Contribute to technology modernisation, technical-debt reduction and complex architecture assessments when capacity permits or where the complexity of a project requires architecture involvement.
Share architecture knowledge and lessons learned across application and project teams.
