We help our clients with assessment and identification of transformational opportunities, road mapping, design, and execution, supported by our Strategy, Operations and Technology teams alongside the appropriate delivery partner ecosystems. About the role There is a significant shift in how Financial Services are thinking about their digital transformations, leveraging a vibrant ecosystem of Fintech and partners, enabling fast time to market and new revenue streams. This shift in architecture thinking is primarily driven by the following factors: Banks are now looking to transform using business led, cloud based ecosystem solutions that can be configured, deployed and adapted quickly. Banks have spent years on developing digital apps, but not digitised their underlying platforms. Cost reduction and need for agility is bringing this to the top of the agenda It is generally acknowledged that 'custom build' digital banks by incumbents is not a good strategy and that traditional 'core banking replacement' programmes destroy value. Covid has brought channel shift and digital capabilities front and centre. Migration to digital banking just accelerated this shift by 3-4 years PwC has developed a unique and innovative set of assets, platforms and ecosystem partnerships to support our clients capitalising on that growth. Working with our clients' leadership teams, our API Ecosystem architect will lead the architectural design and solution components of highly complex, often business critical multi-application environments to enable and unlock new value streams within the client's technology base. They will have a wealth of experience in hands on delivery of multi-year technology delivery programmes at global, multinational clients or worked at tier 1 technology firms to implement their solutions to clients. They have a broad understanding of the capabilities, technology and vendor landscape in financial services in either capital markets, retail or commercial banking. Our API Ecosystem architect has deep understanding of the technology trends in financial services and several years of experience architecting and delivering cloud native, API enabled architectures for this Industry. They are able to articulate the business and technological value of an ecosystem architecture, brings a broad awareness of the Fintech capabilities available in the market and understands how modern technologies can deliver and manage efficient partnerships with ecosystem players. They set themselves apart in being able to develop solutions for both emerging and often cloud based technologies and client legacy systems in a way that delivers value to the client and enables the client to move to an agile technology estate. They will work with partners to make appropriate software and vendor choices to support this plan and apply several best of breed technologies to create an overall solution. Ultimately working with clients to grow revenue, remove complexity, scale globally, reduce costs and set our clients for success in the digital age.

We help our clients with assessment and identification of transformational opportunities, road mapping, design, and execution, supported by our Strategy, Operations and Technology teams alongside the appropriate delivery partner ecosystems. About the role There is a significant shift in how Financial Services are thinking about their digital transformations, leveraging a vibrant ecosystem of Fintech and partners, enabling fast time to market and new revenue streams. This shift in architecture thinking is primarily driven by the following factors: Banks are now looking to transform using business led, cloud based ecosystem solutions that can be configured, deployed and adapted quickly. Banks have spent years on developing digital apps, but not digitised their underlying platforms. Cost reduction and need for agility is bringing this to the top of the agenda It is generally acknowledged that 'custom build' digital banks by incumbents is not a good strategy and that traditional 'core banking replacement' programmes destroy value. Covid has brought channel shift and digital capabilities front and centre. Migration to digital banking just accelerated this shift by 3-4 years PwC has developed a unique and innovative set of assets, platforms and ecosystem partnerships to support our clients capitalising on that growth. Working with our clients' leadership teams, our API Ecosystem architect will lead the architectural design and solution components of highly complex, often business critical multi-application environments to enable and unlock new value streams within the client's technology base. They will have a wealth of experience in hands on delivery of multi-year technology delivery programmes at global, multinational clients or worked at tier 1 technology firms to implement their solutions to clients. They have a broad understanding of the capabilities, technology and vendor landscape in financial services in either capital markets, retail or commercial banking. Our API Ecosystem architect has deep understanding of the technology trends in financial services and several years of experience architecting and delivering cloud native, API enabled architectures for this Industry.

They set themselves apart in being able to develop solutions for both emerging and often cloud based technologies and client legacy systems in a way that delivers value to the client and enables the client to move to an agile technology estate. They will work with partners to make appropriate software and vendor choices to support this plan and apply several best of breed technologies to create an overall solution.
