Job Summary
Job Description
The Capital Markets architecture team at RBC is 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?
- 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.
- 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? Why are you pulling X from RBCAppA instead of RBCAppB? Etc..
- Represent department needs in enterprise-wide initiatives. For instance, speak with developers in capital markets to understand what our needs are from an enterprise observability stack, and ensure the central offering meets our functional and non-functional requirements.
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO SUCCEED?
Must have
- Ability to communicate clearly and succinctly
- 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.)
- Broad understanding of capital markets
- Appreciation for DevOps
- Interpersonal skills
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
