Kerja Sepenuh Masa Senior Technical Lead - Solution Architect, Gaji tinggi SGD 19,166 di INTELLECT DESIGN ARENA PTE. LTD. - Maukerja

ROLE SUMMARY

We are seeking a hands-on Senior Technical Lead & Solution Architect to anchor the technical direction of complex banking product and platform builds delivered to global financial institutions. The role blends deep engineering leadership with architecture ownership: setting technical standards, designing scalable and secure solutions, leading interface and API development, and steering agile squads through multi-wave delivery across both cloud and on-premises environments. The successful candidate has progressed from senior engineering into a mid-level architecture remit within IT services and/or banking product organisations, and is comfortable operating between code, design authority forums, and client-facing technical governance.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Solution & technical architecture — own end-to-end solution design for product and integration workstreams; produce HLDs/LLDs, component models, sequence flows and non-functional specifications; chair or contribute to design authority / architecture review boards.

• Engineering leadership — lead technical squads (onshore/offshore) across the full SDLC; set coding standards, branching strategy, code-review discipline and definition-of-done; act as senior escalation point for technical risk.

• Interfaces & API development — design and govern system-to-system interfaces and API contracts (REST/SOAP, event/streaming, file-based and messaging); own interface cataloguing, versioning, schema governance and backward-compatibility strategy.

• Product engineering — drive feature engineering on core banking / transaction-banking products; balance configurability vs. customisation, manage technical debt, and uphold productisation principles for reusable, multi-tenant builds.

• Agile delivery — run agile ceremonies as technical lead; translate epics into technical stories, estimate with the team, and protect velocity while maintaining quality gates and CI/CD discipline.

• Cloud & on-premises deployment — architect for both cloud-native (containers, managed services, IaC) and on-premises data-centre topologies; address HA/DR, scalability, observability and environment management for each.

• Non-functional & security — embed performance, resilience, scalability and security-by-design; partner with infosec on threat modelling, secure SDLC, secrets management and compliance to banking regulatory expectations (e.g. MAS TRM where applicable).

• Client & stakeholder engagement — present designs and trade-offs to bank architecture teams, CIOs and technical SteerCos; defend decisions, manage dependencies and align on integration landscapes.

• Mentorship — coach senior and mid-level engineers, conduct technical assessments, and raise the engineering bar across the delivery centre.

REQUIRED EXPERIENCE & QUALIFICATIONS

• 12–15 years in software engineering with demonstrable progression into a technical lead and mid-level architect role.

• Proven experience across both IT services organisations and software product companies, with substantial exposure to the banking / financial services domain.

• Track record of leading agile product engineering and complex systems integration / interface development for enterprise-grade platforms.

• Hands-on delivery experience across both cloud and on-premises implementations.

• Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Engineering or equivalent; recognised architecture certification (e.g. TOGAF) and/or relevant cloud certification is an advantage.
