Fintech Solutions Architect Jobs (NOW HIRING)

At Globe, our goal is to create a wonderful world for our people, business, and nation. By uniting people of passion who believe they can make a difference, we are confident that we can achieve this goal.

• Own end-to-end architecture across mobile (iOS/Android), backend microservices, and integration layers

• Translate product requirements into scalable, secure, and high-performance solutions

• Define and enforce API standards, integration patterns, and data flows

• Drive non-functional requirements: scalability, resiliency, performance, observability, and security

• Lead architecture and design reviews, actively challenging weak or incomplete solutions

• Ensure system readiness for high-traffic events (promos, campaigns, peak loads)

• Design for failure by default (timeouts, retries, circuit breakers, fallbacks)

• Collaborate with product, UX, engineering, and external partners to align solutions

• Identify and mitigate technical risks early, before they impact delivery

• Guide teams in adopting modern architecture patterns (microservices, event-driven, cloud-native)

• Translate architecture into working code, prototypes, or technical spikes

• Build reference implementations to validate:API contracts,Integration patterns (REST, async messaging), Performance assumptions, Failure handling (retry, timeout, fallback strategies)

• Capable of implementing a minimal but production-realistic service or API

• Demonstrates how architecture decisions impact actual code structure and runtime behavior

• Expected to spend 10-20% of time on hands-on validation, prototyping, or deep technical reviews

• Proven experience in solutions architecture for high-scale digital platforms (telco, fintech, e-commerce, or similar)

• Deep expertise in:Microservices and API-first design, System integration (REST, event-driven, messaging systems such as Kafka or Pub/Sub), Cloud platforms (GCP preferred; AWS acceptable), Familiarity or hands-on experience with Node.js and MongoDB

• Demonstrated ability to design for:High concurrency and traffic spikes, Resiliency and fault tolerance, Performance optimization at scale

• Hands-on experience with:Mobile architectures (native + hybrid such as KMP, WebView, React Native), Backend systems and integration layers

• Strong understanding of security principles (authentication, authorization, secure APIs)

• Proven ability to back architecture decisions with working code, prototypes, or technical spikes

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in telco or subscription-based platforms (e.g., data wallets, billing, entitlements)

• Familiarity with real-time streaming platforms (Kafka, Pub/Sub)

• Experience with feature flags, personalization, or segmentation systems

• Knowledge of observability practices (logging, metrics, tracing)

• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and release strategies (blue-green, canary deployments)

• Challenges assumptions and pushes back on weak requirements and designs

• Communicates clearly and directly-no reliance on buzzwords or vague abstractions

• Makes sound decisions with incomplete information and tight timelines

• Takes ownership of outcomes, not just architecture artifacts

• Works effectively across cross-functional teams and external partners
