Solution Architect

At NOBA, we’re building the next generation of financial services – scalable, secure, and adaptable to future needs. Over the past five years, NOBA has experienced significant growth within our existing product offerings. Now, we’re entering an exciting new phase: launching a range of new products to further strengthen our position in the market.

To support this journey, we’re expanding our architecture function with a Solution Architect who will play a key role in leading this next step – shaping technical solutions that align with business strategy, enable innovation, and drive efficient execution across our technology landscape.

About the role:

You’ll work across the entire Tech domain at NOBA with a broad scope and high level of ownership. In this hands-on and delivery-focused role, you’ll lead architecture work within specific projects or domains, shaping solutions from early ideas to implementation.

You’ll collaborate closely with other architects, tech leads (software engineering, data, cloud/Azure, infrastructure), and stakeholders from both business and tech. When needed, you’ll also act as technical project lead by guiding design decisions, coordinating input, and ensuring alignment across teams.

Key areas you’ll contribute to:

• Supporting business strategic initiatives across NOBA
• Harmonizing the system landscape and shared services across the group
• Evolving and utilizing our Azure cloud platform
• Launching new products and working closely with different teams to bring new digital products to market - from idea to solution.

Main tasks:

• Design and guide the implementation of technical solutions aligned with business goals
• Drive architectural decisions across teams and projects
• Translating business needs into technical solutions that is well structured, with clearly defined boundaries and scalable solutions
• Act as technical lead for smaller projects – from scope to delivery
• Collaborate across disciplines – software, cloud, data, infrastructure – to ensure end-to-end architectural fit
• Document technical designs and promote knowledge sharing.

We are looking for you who:

• Experience leading initiatives within the technical domain, e.g. as a technical project leader, team lead or similar
• Strong background in solution architecture – from idea to implementation
• Ability to break down complex challenges into clear, actionable parts
• Excellent communication skills – able to bridge tech and business
• Proactive, self-driven way of working – you take initiative, follow up and coordinate activities independently
• Background in software development (back-end)
• Excellent communication skills in English (both written and spoken) plus basic proficiency in Swedish (e.g. comfortable understanding Swedish and responding in English).

It's positive if you have:

• Architecture experience in banking (especially corporate banking) or other regulated industries
• Experience with Azure or other cloud platforms
• Experience with .NET
• Understanding of DevOps, infrastructure, and networking (collaborative level, not hands-on)
• Information security knowledge – including architectural risks and mitigation strategies
• Experience working with external vendors and stakeholders.

To thrive and perform well in the role, you’re likely driven by creating structure out of complexity. You enjoy solving problems, facilitating collaboration, and delivering tangible results through technology. You’re motivated by the opportunity to make a real impact – not only in how systems are built, but in how they enable business success.

In addition to this, it is important to us that you recognize yourself in our values: we are wholehearted, we collaborate and we take the lead.
