  • Practical knowledge of RAG architecture (vector stores, embeddings, LLM integration) and agentic workflow design.
  • Strong grasp of enterprise integration patterns, microservices, and API design.
  • Ability to produce architecture artifacts (ADRs, diagrams) and communicate effectively with technical and executive stakeholders.
  • Preferred Qualifications:
  • Banking/financial services experience, familiarity with SOX, PCI-DSS, GLBA.
  • TOGAF, Snowflake (SnowPro Architect), or AWS Solutions Architect certification.
