Web App Application Architect

As a Web App Application Architect, you’ll engage with relevant stakeholders as a single point of contact for design aspects. You’ll be representing the design function at governance forums and working with enterprise architects to make sure standards and principles are adhered to. You’ll also analyse requirements into coherent end-to-end designs, taking the business architecture into account.

Other duties include:

• Translating requirements into a series of transition state designs and an executable roadmap
• Delivering cost-effective designs for the business and aligning solutions with the corresponding business or IT architecture
• Documenting the relevant design in accordance with standard methods
• Making sure the solution design is aligned to the portfolio or enterprise architecture target state

You’ll already have a background in solution design and experience of using industry standard models and tools. Alongside good communication skills, you’ll also need the ability to lead and collaborate with both internal and external teams.

It will be an added advantage if you have relevant experience in designing end to end Java based 3 tier (UI, Logic and DB) web application setup, designing high concurrency big data interfacing and streaming data interfacing as well as designing cloud native applications, such as PCF or AWS.

We’ll also want to see:

• Knowledge of the technical domain with an understanding of key elements
• A broad understanding of the financial services environment and regulatory frameworks
• An expert understanding of external influences and advances that impact design
