Role Summary
We are seeking a Solution Architect to serve as the strategic interface between local business requirements and global technical delivery. In this role, you will lead the design and implementation of end-to-end architectures, facilitating technical workshops in local language (primarily Thai) to ensure the client's business vision is accurately translated into global-standard blueprints.
While you bring strong banking domain expertise, core banking knowledge is considered a plus and not mandatory - GFT will provide structured training and enablement to further empower your expertise with our global architectural standards and methodologies.

Evaluate existing banking systems within the client’s infrastructure, identifying limitations and proposing solutions that align with both global standards and local regulatory requirements.
Collaborate with business stakeholders, product owners, and SMEs to define solution blueprints, acting as the technical leader for requirements gathered in local language.
Manage and coordinate technical efforts across multiple local and offshore teams to ensure timely delivery of robust and future-proof banking solutions.
Ensure architectural integrity and consistency by synthesizing local business logic into English-language technical documentation for global development teams.
Identify, communicate, and mitigate RAID throughout the project lifecycle, navigating the organizational nuances of large-scale local enterprises.
Provide technical leadership in defining best practices and frameworks for banking transformation.
