About the Role

We are seeking an authoritative DevOps Architect to define the strategic blueprint, governance, and automation frameworks within a highly regulated financial ecosystem. In this principal role, you will act as the ultimate Subject Matter Expert (SME) for modern DevOps methodologies, CI/CD pipeline design, and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC). You will bridge the gap between development and infrastructure, championing continuous integration and delivery practices to drastically accelerate enterprise-scale software deployments and operational efficiency.

Key Responsibilities:

3. Serve as the domain SME for enterprise DevOps tooling (explicitly including GitHub Enterprise, HashiCorp Vault, Terraform, and Ansible). Evaluate, design, and integrate advanced process automation solutions to resolve operational bottlenecks.
4. Champion DevOps adoption across the organization. Partner collaboratively with cross-functional technical teams and business stakeholders to streamline workflows and integrate industry-best DevOps practices into the broader IT operating model.
5. Continuously evaluate the technology landscape (including Cloud, Distributed Ledger Technology/DLT, and emerging FinTech innovations) and provide expert strategic recommendations on integrating next-generation DevOps tools.

Qualifications & Experience:

1. Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related technical discipline.
2. A minimum of 10 years of robust IT infrastructure and engineering experience, with at least 5 years acting in a dedicated Architectural capacity. Background in a tier-1 financial institution is highly preferred.
3. Deep, hands-on expertise in designing complex CI/CD pipelines and executing automation via tools such as Terraform, Ansible, Git, Jenkins, ArgoCD, Sonatype, Chef, and Puppet.
4. Strong command of Linux/Unix system administration and advanced scripting capabilities utilizing Python, Golang, NodeJS, Ruby, or shell scripting.
5. Solid understanding of modern cloud computing architectures; familiarity with FinTech initiatives and DLT is a distinct advantage.
6. Fluency in written and spoken English and Cantonese is required; proficiency in Mandarin is a strong plus.
