Full Job Description
Must to have
10+ years, with genuine dual-track experience - you have both owned an architecture & run the
delivery around it, not held one & observed the other.
• Has personally carried a solution design through a bank&'s or insurer&'s formal architecture & security
approval boards, & can describe what those reviewers actually push on.
• Able to read & reason about an existing production application&'s code & session model. You are not
delegating the current-state assessment.
• Fixed-price delivery experience with a working change-control instinct. This is the single most commercially
important trait in the role.
• Experience inserting authentication or authorisation controls into live customer-facing transactional
systems.
• Client-facing credibility at senior level. You will be the supplier's face in every forum.
• Written communication strong enough that your design document survives formal review without a rewrite.
Nice to have
• Insurance, payments or other regulated financial-services delivery.
• Familiarity with NIST SP 800-63B & how an email-delivered factor positions against it.
• Experience operating alongside an incumbent managed-service provider on a shared codebase.
