- Assess the feasibility of business requests and recommend a solution after weighing the implementation alternatives.

- Create API mapping tables, data transformation logic and integration specifications at developer-ready detail.

- Specify mobile app and internet banking features based on Figma designs, business requirements and existing system capabilities.

- Write functional and technical documentation that development teams can use to plan implementation and estimate effort.

- Consult Enterprise Architects and relevant managers on application architecture, in line with the bank's architecture strategy.

- Track changes to IT standards and delivery templates, inform stakeholders and update application records in the CMDB.

Requirements

- University degree in business, economics or IT, or a combination such as business informatics

- At least 5 years of business and IT design and modeling for retail digital banking channels (mobile banking, internet banking, online customer service)

- Hands-on experience designing complex integrations between banking backend systems and digital channels

- Confident reading and creating sequence diagrams, and analyzing REST APIs and OpenAPI / Swagger specifications

- Ability to define end-to-end business processes and mediate effectively between business and IT stakeholders
