Job Description

Responsibilities

Why PayNet / Why Now

  • Protect the reliability of Malaysia’s national payments data platform
  • Operate data systems under increasing scale, scrutiny, and dependency
  • Strengthen data resiliency as analytics and reporting become mission‑critical
  • Place operational judgment at the centre of trusted payment data

TL;DR

  • Own end‑to‑end architecture for national‑scale, real‑time payment platforms
  • Decide architecture trade‑offs across performance, security, resilience, and compliance
  • Set and enforce architecture guardrails without relying on hierarchy
  • Act as the final technical authority for consequential design decisions


Why This Role Matters

  • Architecture decisions directly affect national payment availability and trust
  • Weak architectural judgment creates regulatory, operational, and reputational risk
  • Strong architecture enables safe transaction growth under peak load
  • This role requires judgment over process and outcomes over activity


What You Will Actually Do

  • Own architecture decisions across the full system lifecycle for payment platforms
  • Define and enforce architecture standards, patterns, and guardrails
  • Lead architectural due diligence for vendors and third‑party integrations
  • Drive legacy modernisation and technical debt reduction through structured roadmaps
  • Design for resilience, security, and observability as first‑class architecture concerns


Examples of This Role in Practice

  • Blocking a design that meets functional needs but fails under national transaction peaks
  • Leading architecture decisions for a live payment migration with zero customer impact
  • Translating regulatory requirements into concrete, enforceable architecture patterns
  • Challenging vendor proposals that compromise PayNet’s security or operability standards


What Will Help You Succeed

  • Deep experience designing distributed, high‑availability transaction systems
  • Ability to reason about failure modes, consistency trade‑offs, and operational risk
  • Strong technical communication across engineers, executives, and regulators
  • Comfort acting as the decisive technical voice without formal authority
