Projects are found in most evolving area of the Investment Banking domain - Asset Management. Business is dynamic and it demands fast turn-around deliverables from development team in a quite agile manner.
The team is in a forming stage and is aimed to work on a green-field projects using latest technologies on microservices cloud-based architecture in order to drive business' innovation.
Position offers an opportunity to scale technical skills, including certification, and to contribute own knowledge to the business growth.
Responsibilities:The focus would be on solution architecture, however data modelling is also part of the job. The position assumes close collaboration with the development team to guide the implementation of the core platform components.

Mandatory Skills Description:

Data / solution architect with a focus on managing JSON schemas and Kafka event JSON schemas to adhere to standards and make sure all follow the same patterns. A good deal of data modelling and solution architecture experience would be helpful, especially in the  Server / Java Spring Boot environments.

- Experience in designing JSON Schemas in Sparx Enterprise Architect
- Experience in Sparx Enterprise Architect overall
- Experience in designing APIs (Open API v3)
- Experience in data modelling (3NF, DV, Multi-Dimensional)
- Experience in the Java Spring Boot ecosystem, i.e. designing services / APIs

The focus would be on the first two, i.e. help design and maintain JSON schemas and Kafka message schemas (also JSON), but a solid technical and data modelling background is needed as well.

Nice-to-Have Skills:

With more cloud/hybrid and micro-batch, service-based data architectures coming, it'd be good to have some experience in this field. Not only looking at pure "how to" tech aspects, but also considering workload footprint effects or security side-effects of solution design decisions (and v.v.).
It would be really beneficial in this role to also have some Asset Management or Finance Industry understanding, but not a hard requirement.
