Description Vacancy : Solution Architect Enterprise Repository

You & your role

Within our team, we are establishing an Enterprise Repository that connects information from across the bank and transforms it into actionable insights. The repository brings together information about business processes, applications, technology assets, controls, risks, assessments, architecture, and configuration management, creating visibility into the relationships and dependencies that drive the bank.

As a Solution Architect, you will be part of a multidisciplinary team responsible for shaping, selecting, implementing, and evolving this capability. Together with Product Owners, Business Stakeholders, Enterprise & Business Architects, Tech Leads and DevOps Engineers Squads, you will translate business and regulatory requirements into practical architectural solutions.

The Enterprise Repository is more than a platform for storing information. It is a strategic capability that enables stakeholders to understand dependencies, assess the impact of change, support regulatory compliance, and evaluate transformation scenarios. By connecting information from different parts of the bank, the repository helps decision-makers understand the consequences of change before investments or implementation decisions are made.

Your contribution will focus on architecture, information modelling, integration, governance, and stakeholder alignment. You will help ensure that information is structured, connected, and maintained in a way that provides meaningful insights and supports transformation initiatives, regulatory change, operational improvements, and strategic decision-making.
