📍 Location: Singapore, Singapore

⏰ Work Mode: Work from Office

💼 Role: Platform Architect

Key Responsibilities

1. Define and evolve the Azure platform architecture for the Digital Factory, covering landing

zones, network topology, identity and access, policy-as-code, security guardrails and multi-

environment design across sandbox, QA, UAT and production.

2. Design platform operating models that enable infrastructure-as-code, automation, CI/CD,

self-service provisioning, golden paths and repeatable environment patterns for product

teams.

3. Translate business and delivery goals into architecture decisions that balance speed of

delivery, control, cost, security, compliance, resilience and clear accountability.

4. Develop composable platform architecture patterns that support a system-of-systems

approach, reusable services, APIs, platform integrations and modular capabilities across

product teams.

5. Define architecture standards and reference patterns for cloud-native applications, shared

platform capabilities, AI-enabled applications, APIs, container workloads and managed

Azure services.

6. Guide the design of governed data platform and AI/ML architecture patterns, including data

products, managed AI services, AI application hardening, model access controls,

monitoring and production-readiness practices.

7. Embed observability, incident response, service health, reliability and operational

transparency into platform architecture so teams can understand cost, usage, performance,

compliance posture and service ownership at scale.

8. Shape FinOps and TCO architecture practices, including tagging strategy, cost allocation,

budget controls, usage dashboards, showback reporting and cost accountability

mechanisms.

9. Partner with platform engineers, product owners, developers, security, audit, finance and

leadership stakeholders to align platform architecture with business outcomes and

governance expectations.

10. Document architecture decisions, reusable patterns, trade-offs, principles and operating

procedures to support adoption, knowledge retention and continuous improvement.

Required Skills and Experience

1. 10+ years of experience in solution architecture, platform architecture, enterprise

architecture or cloud architecture, including significant experience designing platforms on

Microsoft Azure in enterprise or regulated environments.

2. Strong experience with Azure cloud platform architecture, including Azure Landing Zones,

hub-and-spoke or virtual WAN network designs, identity and access models, subscription

design, management groups, Azure Policy and multi-environment architecture.

3. Experience designing platform operating models that support infrastructure-as-code,

automated provisioning, CI/CD, GitOps, self-service workflows, reusable templates, golden

paths and platform product management practices.

4. Ability to translate business objectives, policy constraints and delivery needs into

architecture principles, target states, patterns, trade-offs and roadmap recommendations.

5. Strong understanding of security, compliance and governance-by-design, including policy-

as-code, least-privilege access, network segmentation, secrets management, secure

release controls and auditability.

6. Experience with modern software delivery architecture, including CI/CD pipelines,

deployment promotion, rollback patterns, quality checks, release governance and developer

experience design.

7. Understanding of data platform and AI/ML architecture patterns, including governed data

products, managed AI services, Azure AI services, model integration patterns, AI

application hardening and responsible AI controls.

8. Experience designing observability and operational architecture using Azure Monitor, Log

Analytics, dashboards, service health metrics, incident management patterns and business-

relevant platform measures.

9. Strong understanding of FinOps, TCO and cloud cost architecture, including tagging, cost

allocation, budget controls, usage reporting, optimization levers and cost accountability.

10. Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to explain

architecture trade-offs clearly to senior leaders, technical teams and non-technical

stakeholders.

11. Comfortable working in an agile, product-oriented environment where platform capabilities

are delivered incrementally and improved through adoption feedback.

Preferred Skills

1. Experience operating in Government Commercial Cloud, public sector cloud environments

or regulated enterprise environments.

2. Experience with Azure DevOps, GitHub, ShipHATS, Terraform, Azure Bicep, API

Management, Azure Container Apps, Azure App Service, Microsoft Entra ID, Microsoft

Sentinel, Defender for Cloud or equivalent tools and services.

3. Exposure to Microsoft Fabric, Azure OpenAI, Synapse, data lakehouse patterns, data

governance, model operations or AI governance frameworks.

4. Experience designing developer portals, internal platforms, platform APIs, service

catalogues, self-service workflows or reusable engineering patterns.

5. Understanding of SRE practices, incident response automation, reliability engineering,

platform SLIs/SLOs and operational readiness reviews.

6. Familiarity with enterprise architecture methods, architecture decision records, capability

mapping, technology roadmaps and architecture governance forums.
