About the Role
As Lead Treasury Domain Architect, you will shape Treasury technology architecture across funding pools, asset and liability management, fiduciary buffer management, financial resource management, and risk-related processes.

- Cooperate with engineering partners, platform owners, programme managers, and business stakeholders to support solution alignment, risk awareness, audit engagement, and practical delivery.
