About this role

Own the target architecture
define the platform’s structure, set the boundaries between services, and make the calls that other engineers can build to with confidence
Drive the transformation
on-prem to cloud, MSSQL to PostgreSQL, legacy to platform
Write the decisions down
RFCs, ADRs, technical strategy
Embed AI into the architecture
not as a feature layer, but as a first-class design concern across services, data pipelines, and the SDLC itself

Architect at scale
you've owned the architecture of a distributed, data-heavy platform in production with serious customers
Transformation experience
you've moved a real system from one architecture to another without stopping the business, and you can talk honestly about what it cost
Deep in .NET and data
C# / .NET, both MSSQL and PostgreSQL, real experience with on-premises and cloud
Writes with authority
RFCs, decision records, public technical communication
Credible to engineers and to customers
bank architects will sit across from you. So will your own team. Both need to come away trusting the direction
AI-native
you're actively reasoning about where AI changes the architecture
not bolting it on afterward
