Responsibilities
How You’ll Make a Difference
· Architectural Engineering: Research, evaluate, and test cloud-native technologies to design the future direction of the product platform with security, scalability, and resilience built into the architecture.
· DevOps & CI/CD Design: Architect secure end-to-end automation pipeline (CI/CD) and DevOps standards and deployment standards that all product teams must follow.
· Security-by-Design: Embed cybersecurity controls including IAM, secrets management, encryption, vulnerability management, container security, and policy enforcement across the platform lifecycle.
· App-to-Infra Alignment: Collaborate with developers to ensure Java-based applications are optimized and secured for containerized environments (Kubernetes/Docker).
· Hybrid Modernization: Design secure integration between modern cloud-native stacks and legacy on-prem core banking systems while ensuring network segmentation, data protection, and regulatory compliance.
· Platform Resilience & Compliance: Ensure platform architecture supports high availability, disaster recovery, observability, auditability, and compliance with banking and security standards.
· Practical Validation: Conduct deep-dive testing, security reviews and "proof of concept" (PoC) work to ensure all architectural ideas are realistic, secure, and suitable for long-term growth.
What You’ll Bring
· Deep Technical Leadership: Extensive experience in architectural thinking coupled with a "builder" mindset—you can code the PoC for the architecture you design.
· Application & Security Savvy: Strong understanding of Java Spring Boot cloud-native application frameworks, secure coding principles and application behaviour in distributed, high-availability environments.
· DevOps Expertise: Proven track record in designing automated deployment workflows, integrating security scanning into CI/CD pipelines and container orchestration strategy.
· Cloud Security Knowledge: Strong knowledge of cloud security architecture, zero-trust principles, identity and access management (IAM), encryption, and workload protection
· Hybrid Knowledge: Mastery of both on-prem (OpenShift), public cloud (Huawei, AWS, Azure) and on-prem hardware constraints (Storage, Network, Virtualization).
· Risk & Governance Awareness: Experience aligning architecture decisions with enterprise security policies, regulatory requirements, and operational risk management.
Technical Competencies
· Programming & Frameworks: Solid understanding of Java Spring Boot, secure application server configurations, API security, application server configurations, and microservices architecture.
· DevOps Ecosystem: Expert knowledge in designing and implementing CI/CD pipelines with integrated security tooling (SAST, DAST, SCA, container scanning), Jenkins , GitLab, GitHub, deployment automation (Helm Chart, GitOps-AgroCD/Rollout, Istio Blue/Green & Canary) and Jira integration.
· Container & Platform Security: Hands-on mastery of Kubernetes (K8s), Docker, container networking, runtime security, image hardening, and Kubernetes security best practices
· Identity & Access Management: Knowledge of RBAC, PAM, MFA, secrets management, certificate management, and privileged access controls.
· Orchestration: Hands-on mastery of Kubernetes (K8s), Docker, and container networking/security.
· Cloud Platforms: Architectural proficiency across OpenShift, Huawei Cloud, AWS, and Azure.
· Observability: Knowledge of designing monitoring and logging frameworks (e.g., Grafana, Prometheus, ELK) to support platform reliability.
· Infrastructure Security: Strong understanding of network security, firewalls, segmentation, WAF, endpoint protection, vulnerability management, and disaster recovery architecture.
· Compliance & Standards: Familiarity with banking and security standards such as PCI DSS, ISO 27001, CIS Benchmarks, and regulatory security requirements.
