The role – Solution Architect – CREST New Technology
IT is at the core of Euroclear’s business, providing continuous development, assisting in delivering a cost efficient and high-quality service to its customers. Currently the core business is run on HP NonStop Servers (Tandem). Communications infrastructure and message routing functionality are implemented on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Key technologies: Java, OpenShift, Databases (Oracle, SQL Server), Kafka.
Responsibilities:
It is expected that this migration will be an incremental process over a period of years.

- estimation principles for phases of the migration program and for the proof-of-concept exercises
- Leading the implementation of the prototypes and follow-on work
- Presenting proposed solution architecture and plans to Euroclear management, customers & team-members
- Acting as technical authority for the new solution under the new technical stack
