The Role Key Responsibilities Define infrastructure architecture, target-state infrastructure roadmaps, transition architectures, and modernisation plans across data centre, cloud, hybrid, network, compute, storage, virtualisation, container, and platform environments. Establish infrastructure architecture principles, standards, reference architectures, governance models, design review mechanisms, and architecture decision frameworks. Translate business strategy, regulatory expectations, application requirements, capacity needs, and resilience priorities into infrastructure strategy and execution roadmaps. Lead infrastructure assessments across data centres, compute, storage, network, virtualisation, cloud, security, observability, backup, disaster recovery, and operations domains. Design secure, scalable, resilient, and highly available infrastructure architectures for mission-critical banking and enterprise workloads. Advise clients on infrastructure modernisation, hybrid cloud adoption, private cloud, public cloud, container platforms, software-defined infrastructure, automation, infrastructure-as-code, and operating model transformation. Define and review infrastructure designs for data centre connectivity, workload hosting, migration planning, infrastructure integration, capacity management, performance optimisation, disaster recovery, and business continuity. Review infrastructure implementation plans and ensure alignment with architecture intent, design goals, security requirements, regulatory compliance, performance expectations, and operational resilience needs. Lead strategic options analysis and present clear trade-offs across cost, risk, performance, scalability, resilience, security, operational complexity, and business value. Evaluate emerging infrastructure technologies and advise clients on suitability, risks, dependencies, benefits, and implementation considerations. Support RFPs, solution shaping, vendor evaluations, technical due diligence, architecture governance forums, and executive presentations. Work with OEMs, cloud providers, IT vendors, internal teams, and client stakeholders to ensure infrastructure architecture decisions are practical and executable. Partner with security, application, operations, and business teams to align infrastructure capacity, availability, performance, and compliance with current and future business needs. Drive modern engineering and operations practices including automation, DevSecOps, observability, FinOps, SRE principles, infrastructure-as-code, platform engineering, and operational resilience. Support AI-enabled transformation by ensuring infrastructure readiness for AI workloads, data platforms, model hosting, GPU/accelerated compute where applicable, secure connectivity, observability, and scalable platform operations.
