Role Description:
Senior hands-on architect for Capital Markets Shared Technology, combining Java architecture, AI-enabled engineering, and technical leadership to drive better systems and faster delivery.
Key Responsibilities
The AI-focused Technical Architect is a senior engineering leader responsible for designing modern, modular, AI‑optimised software systems and guiding engineering teams across the full solution lifecycle. The role combines deep hands-on engineering experience with architectural vision, ensuring that solutions are scalable, resilient, observable, LLM‑compatible, and aligned with modern SDLC and AI‑era development standards.
You will drive decisions around system decomposition, modularity, interoperability, and domain boundaries, introducing patterns such as Spring Modulith, jMolecule DDD abstractions, event architecture, and AI‑assisted SDLC workflows (agents, MCP servers, spec‑driven development). You will ensure project structures, documentation, automation, and governance frameworks are optimised for modern LLM‑driven development teams.
Your goal is to deliver high‑quality, maintainable, future‑proof enterprise systems and accelerate delivery through AI‑native engineering practices.
This role requires significant experience as a software developer.
The goal is to provide a framework for the development of a software or system that will result in high quality IT solutions.

Use spec-driven development to turn requirements into effective prompts, code, tests, and documentation.
•
Structure repositories, modules, and design artefacts so they are readable and usable by LLM-based tools.
•
Define practical prompting, review, and governance patterns that improve output quality and traceability.
Agentic Development
•
Apply AI agents to code generation, refactoring, dependency mapping, documentation, and design review.
•
Required hands-on experience with vector databases and RAG patterns, including embeddings, chunking, indexing, retrieval, and grounding AI outputs in trusted enterprise data.
