Job Description

Overview

The Solution Architect plays a critical role in bridging long-term enterprise strategy with the practical delivery of technology solutions across business domains. This role ensures that solution designs are aligned with MUFG’s strategic objectives, technology roadmaps, and enterprise architecture principles. A key responsibility is defining and evolving foundational enterprise architecture elements—such as domain models, integration patterns, data and security frameworks—that enable the organisation’s future-state architecture. The Solution Architect provides architectural oversight, fosters coherence across solution landscapes, and collaborates closely with business and technology stakeholders to support capability planning, promote reuse and standardisation, and ensure that solutions are scalable, secure, and future-ready. The role also demands a creative and pragmatic approach to leveraging cloud-native and open-source technologies—particularly within the Microsoft Azure ecosystem—to deliver innovative, cost-effective, and high-impact business outcomes.
