Design and oversee enterprise-scale banking integrations, bridging legacy mainframes and modern cloud platforms like Salesforce and Kafka to enable retail banking workflows such as account onboarding and loan origination.
Role Overview
We are seeking an experienced Application Solution Architect to join our enterprise technology team. This role serves as a key bridge between business stakeholders and technical engineering teams, responsible for designing, assessing, and monitoring complex, scalable solutions. You will navigate a hybrid landscape of on-premises legacy banking systems and modern cloud-based platforms. The ideal candidate possesses a strong engineering background and a broad technical perspective, with the ability to lead the integration of disparate systems including Salesforce, core banking mainframes, and event-driven architectures like Kafka—to produce effective, sustainable business outcomes.
Key Responsibilities
Architecture Strategy: Define reference architectures, integration patterns, and data models to support retail banking use cases (e.g., account onboarding, KYC, loan origination).
Solution Design: Lead high-level and detailed solution design, ensuring that new implementations align with existing enterprise standards and performance requirements.
Integration & Ecosystem Management: Architect complex integrations between modern platforms (including Salesforce) and core on-premise banking systems, utilizing middleware, API gateways, and Kafka for event-driven data flows.
Technical Oversight: Provide governance and technical oversight during the build and deployment cycles to ensure scalability, security, and the management of technical debt.
Compliance & Risk: Partner with risk and audit teams to ensure all solutions comply with retail banking regulatory requirements, data lineage standards, and PII handling policies.
Stakeholder Engagement: Translate complex business capabilities into actionable technical blueprints and provide executive-level architecture updates to facilitate decision-making.
8+ years in enterprise IT architecture or senior engineering roles.
Proven experience in the retail banking or financial services domain.
Broad Architectural Expertise: Demonstrated ability to design solutions across diverse tech stacks, including on-premise legacy systems and modern cloud environments.
Integration Proficiency: Hands-on experience with integration patterns, including event-driven architectures (e.g., Kafka), API-first strategies (REST/SOAP), and middleware implementation.
Salesforce Familiarity: Working knowledge of the Salesforce ecosystem as part of a larger enterprise application landscape.
Communication: Proven ability to lead cross-functional architecture initiatives and act as a subject matter expert in a structured, compliance-driven environment.
Experience with mainframe integration and data warehouse modernization.
Relevant architectural certifications (e.g., TOGAF, AWS/Azure Solutions Architect, or Salesforce Application Architect).
Experience in high-security, regulated environments requiring strict disaster recovery and business continuity planning.
