Key Responsibilities

1. End‑to‑End System Architecture

• Define and maintain the architectural vision for systems, ensuring that detailed designs and implementation work adhere to established enterprise architecture principles.
• Provide oversight and direction throughout the SDLC to maintain architectural consistency and technical quality.

2. Requirements Translation &Technical Specifications

• Analyse business requirements— including performance, scalability, and resiliency needs— and convert them into clear architectural specifications and design artefacts.
• Ensure that architecture decisions support both functional and non‑functional needs.

3. Technology Advisory & SolutionRecommendations

• Recommend suitable platforms, tools, and technologies that align with enterprise standards, cloud strategies, legacy modernisation goals, and industry best practices.
• Evaluate new technologies to support digital transformation and advise on adoption suitability (e.g., cloud-native architectures, APIs, containers, SG Tech Stack components).

4. Architecture Blueprinting &Governance

• Design holistic architecture blueprints covering business processes, data flows, application components, and infrastructure models.
• Govern architectural compliance and continuously evolve the blueprint to maintain alignment between business goals and ICT strategies.

5. Technical Review & QualityAssurance

• Participate in solution reviews, code inspections, and technical assessments as part of the development lifecycle.
• Identify architectural risks, propose mitigation strategies, and ensure that designs are robust, secure, and scalable.

6. Collaboration & StakeholderEngagement

• Work directly with technical leads, engineers, product teams, and stakeholders to ensure that architectural decisions are understood and properly implemented.
• Clearly communicate technical concepts and influence decision‑makers through structured reasoning and strong presentation skills.
• Support teams in navigating complex technical challenges and ensuring smooth project delivery.

Required Skills & Experience

Technical Leadership

• Experience serving as a system architect or technical lead, managing system design, prototyping, performance optimisation, and system maintenance.
• Strong hands‑on understanding of end‑to‑end project development cycles.

Core Technical Expertise

• Proficiency in designing and implementing applications using .NET and/or Java (J2EE) technologies.
• Solid understanding of server‑side development, SOA principles, microservices, integration patterns, and web‑based service development.
• Strong data modelling capabilities and advanced SQL knowledge.
• Ability to perform technology evaluations and recommend solutions aligned with enterprise direction.

Solution Engineering

• Able to analyse complex requirements and propose solutions that are technically sound, scalable, secure, and maintainable.
• Skilled in balancing functional demands with architectural constraints to deliver practical and effective designs.

Soft Skills & Behaviours

• Results‑oriented with a strong customer‑centric mindset.
• Highly organised and capable of managing multiple priorities and stakeholders.
• Excellent interpersonal, verbal, and written communication skills, with the ability to influence and articulate technical concepts clearly.
• Strong collaboration skills and the ability to guide teams in navigating technical challenges.

Qualifications

Minimum

• Degree or Diploma in any discipline, with supporting hands‑on experience in software architecture, design, and development.

Preferred

• Experience in enterprise architecture, cloud-based designs, legacy modernisation, and working with government architecture standards (e.g., SG Tech Stack).
• Practical experience in large‑scale system design and integration efforts.
