Solutions Architect

Location: Singapore (on-site/hybrid)
Employment Type: Full-Time
Eligibility: Singapore Citizens

About the Role

We are looking for a Solutions Architect to own technical architecture and design decisions for client delivery projects, from initial requirements through to deployment and support. You will work alongside a Project Manager, who handles delivery timelines and client relationship management. You will own the technical side of the client relationship, including architecture decisions, technical requirements gathering, and hands-on problem-solving throughout the project.

We're looking for someone with solid, proven architecture experience who is ready to own technical decisions independently, but who is still growing into full end-to-end ownership.

Key Responsibilities

Architecture & Technical Design

• Own technical stack and architecture decisions for assigned client projects

• Design solutions that are scalable, secure, and maintainable, appropriate to each client's context and constraints

• Translate client requirements into technical designs and implementation plans

• Stay hands-on and involved through the full project lifecycle, including implementation support, troubleshooting, and deployment, not just the initial design phase

Client Engagement

• Act as the technical point of contact for clients, working alongside the Project Manager, who leads delivery timelines and the overall client relationship

• Conduct on-site visits to client offices as needed, depending on the project, to gather requirements, clarify technical issues, or troubleshoot problems

• Communicate technical decisions and trade-offs clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders

• Support pre-project technical scoping and feasibility discussions when needed

Delivery Involvement

• Guide the development team on architecture and technical implementation throughout delivery

• Review technical work for alignment with the agreed architecture and design

• Identify and flag technical risks early, working with the Project Manager to manage impact on timelines

• Be comfortable supporting multiple concurrent projects, prioritizing based on urgency and complexity

Requirements

• 5 years of hands-on software development experience, including some experience owning or significantly contributing to architecture/design decisions

• Strong proficiency in Node.js, JavaScript, and TypeScript

• Experience building mobile apps with React Native and/or Flutter

• Solid understanding of software architecture and design principles. Able to make sound architecture decisions with appropriate guidance/review, not necessarily fully independently on the most complex projects

• Hands-on experience with AWS (EC2, S3, Lambda, RDS, etc.)

• Familiarity with CI/CD practices

• Experience working across the full SDLC (design, development, testing, deployment, support)

• Good communication skills. Able to explain technical concepts and trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders

• Strong problem-solving skills and sound technical judgment

Good to Have

• Exposure to Red Hat OpenShift for container deployment

• Web3 experience (blockchain, smart contracts, dApps, crypto wallet integrations)

• Prior experience in a client-facing technical role (consulting, system integration, or professional services)

• Experience with Agile/Scrum project delivery
