• Support vendor selection and assessment against potential internal and external solutions (On-Prem/PaaS/SaaS)
• Continued Impact assessment against current and emerging engineering landscape for Financial Crime, and wider LSEG technology landscape
• Support delivery teams, blending technical (development and architecture) and behaviour (stakeholder and communication) skills.
• Review detailed design, support code reviews and other artefacts from development, testing and release management teams, to provide recommendations and best practices
• Ensure technical quality and adherence of our designs to the organisation’s Digital Blueprint, Enterprise Architecture, and Product Roadmaps.
• Use architecture design and modelling techniques, patterns, tools, and standards for design delivery
• Communicate and present to governance forums for review, ratification and signoffs against new design patterns
• Collaborate with business, operations and technology stakeholders and end-users to build a comprehensive view of the problem statements, and mitigating options towards resolution
