What is the opportunity?
The Capital Markets architecture team looking for an enterprise architect. The central architecture team is not aligned to a specific domain within markets but rather supports the entire department. As such you'll have broad exposure to all asset classes and aspects of the business front to back. Similarly, you'll have exposure to a wide breadth of technologies and design patterns reflecting the varying needs of different aspects of the business.
What will you do?
- Initial primary focus will be on evolving our capital markets GenAI framework and aligning it with the enterprise offering.This will involve collaboration with senior executives on design choices to ensure our domain requirements are incorporated in the target solution.
- More generally, you'll help to form and communicate technology guidance to standardize development of commonly needed capabilities. For instance, work with SMEs within markets and enterprise to figure out what our API strategy should be, build consensus, document it on confluence, present it to senior leadership, and show dev teams how to implement it.
- In addition, you'll review proposed architectures to align specific team requirements to high level goals of capital markets leadership and the bank. For instance, why are you ordering a physical machine instead of using internal cloud? Why are you using Redis over MemSQL?
What do you need to succeed?
- Ability to communicate clearly and succinctly
- Interpersonal skills
- Strong understanding of software architecture (patterns, components, etc.)
- Strong understanding of programming (language pros/cons, threading implications, etc.)
- Strong understanding of data technologies (stores, access patterns, caching, etc.)

- Knowledge of data processing and management
- Experience with large language models (LLMs)
- Experience working on GenAI solutions in large, regulated organizations
Nice-to-have:
- Deep understanding of capital markets products
- Ability to influence others
- Experience with cloud architecture
What's in it for you?
- Work with seasoned veterans of enterprise architecture who can support your growth
- Help to shape the direction of capital markets technology at Canada's biggest bank
- Present to senior executives
- Access to a world-class training program in financial services
