At BNY, our culture allows us to run our company better and enables employees' growth and success. As a leading global financial services company at the heart of the global financial system, we influence nearly 20% of the world's investible assets. Every day, our teams harness cutting-edge AI and breakthrough technologies to collaborate with clients, driving transformative solutions that redefine industries and uplift communities worldwide. Recognized as a top destination for innovators, BNY is where bold ideas meet advanced technology and exceptional talent. Together, we power the future of finance - and this is what #LifeAtBNY is all about. Join us and be part of something extraordinary. BNY is seeking a seasoned Enterprise Architect to drive the design and adoption of reusable, executable architecture patterns; streamline and modernize architecture governance; and tightly integrate architecture practices with software development lifecycles. The role will also pioneer AI-assisted architecture design approaches to increase speed, consistency, and quality across platforms and products. This position is central to delivering on BNY's strategic pillars-Be More for our Clients, Run our Company Better, and Power our Culture-by embedding high-quality architecture into delivery workflows and enabling teams with pragmatic, measurable guidance. This role is located in New York City. In this role, you'll make an impact in the following ways:
- Define and maintain a catalog of reusable, executable architecture patterns: Create versioned, testable patterns (reference implementations, IaC modules, code scaffolds, policy-as-code, and CI/CD templates) that accelerate delivery while ensuring compliance and quality.
- Streamline and modernize architecture governance: Design lightweight, outcome-driven guardrails, controls, and decision workflows that reduce friction, increase transparency, and elevate signal-to-noise across architecture reviews.
- Integrate architecture with SDLC: Embed architects and patterns into developer workflows (epics, code reviews, pipelines, automated gates) to enable "governance by design" and reduce late-stage rework.
- Establish and evolve standards: Author and maintain technology standards, reference architectures, and decision frameworks that are clear, testable, and easy to adopt across platforms and practices.
- Champion AI-assisted design: Evaluate and pilot AI-driven tools for pattern recommendation, design validation, risk identification, and documentation generation; define safe, compliant usage patterns and measurable benefits.
- Enable teams and scale adoption: Deliver playbooks, workshops, and enablement content; partner with platform leads, product owners, engineers, and risk/compliance to ensure adoption at scale.
- Drive measurable outcomes: Define and track KPIs (e.g., cycle time reduction, defect prevention, policy adherence via automated checks, reuse rate of patterns, cloud/resource cost efficiency, and security posture scores).
- Govern decisions and traceability: Establish architecture decision records (ADRs), rationales, and lineage that connect business outcomes, technical choices, controls, and implementation artifacts.
- Influence strategic roadmaps: Consult on platform and product strategies, ensuring architectural choices align with business priorities, operational resilience, and cost optimization.
- Foster a culture of excellence: Model BNY principles-Be Client Obsessed, Spark Progress, Own It, Stay Curious, and Thrive Together-through collaboration, transparency, and continuous improvement.
To be successful in this role, we're seeking the following:
- 10 plus; years in architecture roles (enterprise, solution, platform), with demonstrated impact delivering large-scale, distributed systems in regulated environments.
- Expertise in modern architecture domains: cloud-native (AWS/Azure/GCP), microservices, APIs, event-driven designs, data platforms, security architecture, and reliability engineering (SRE).
- Proven experience making architecture executable: IaC (e.g., Terraform), policy-as-code (e.g., OPA), CI/CD (e.g., GitHub Actions/Jenkins/Azure DevOps), automated quality/security gates, and reference implementations.
- Strong fluency across SDLC and agile delivery: product thinking, backlog grooming, sprint ceremonies, and hands-on partnership with engineering to translate architecture into working code.
- Practical governance experience: designing risk-aware, lightweight processes; implementing controls without impeding velocity; and fostering measurable compliance through automation.
- Exposure to AI/ML in engineering workflows: understanding of GenAI-assisted design, coding assistants, architectural validation, and responsible AI considerations (model risk, data protection, auditability).
- Excellent communication and influence: able to translate complex concepts for diverse audiences, build consensus, and drive adoption across platforms and practices.
