Senior System Architect - Client Lifecycle Management (CLM)

Tasks

As a System Architect on the Global IT Architecture Team, you will play a key role in defining and delivering solution architectures for the Client Lifecycle Management (CLM) program. Your responsibilities will include:

• Ensure architectural consistency throughout the entire software lifecycle, from design through testing, release, and operation
• Identify, document, and manage architectural debt resulting from discrepancies between transitional implementations and long-term goals.
• Initiate and formalize important decisions through Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) to secure approval from the relevant architecture committees.
• Software engineers and tech leads provide guidance and support during the technical implementation to ensure feasibility, scalability, and compliance
• Work with product owners to refine business requirements and translate them into manageable capabilities and building blocks
• Actively contribute to global domain architecture committees: present blueprints, review peer designs, and help shape the overall target architecture
• Enforce architecture governance across development teams and maintain quality standards during delivery

Requirements

For this position, we are looking for a candidate with:

• 3+ years of experience as a senior architect and 5+ years of experience in leadership or senior software development roles, with prior experience in highly regulated industries, ideally banking or financial services
• Full responsibility for solution architectures—from design and implementation through to operation
• Demonstrable ability to evaluate architectural alternatives and find reasonable compromises under constraints
• Ability to analyze complex business requirements and translate them into robust, scalable technical solutions
• Strong knowledge of modern architectural styles: microservices, event-driven systems, modular monoliths
• Familiarity with integration patterns: Kafka, Data Stream, Kubernetes, and hybrid cloud/on-premises environments
