The Financial Platforms Architecture team defines the architecture, integration patterns, and technology strategy across the company’s Finance Technology landscape. The team works closely with Finance, Accounting, Treasury, FP&A, Risk, and Engineering stakeholders to deliver a modern, scalable, and well-controlled set of finance platforms that support accurate financial reporting, reconciliation, treasury operations, and regulatory requirements.
Role Overview
The Associate Architect – Financial Platforms is a hands-on solution architecture role intended for experienced solution architects or highly seasoned senior engineers with strong enterprise system design experience. This role is suitable for someone who already demonstrates architectural judgement and is capable of owning solution design within their domain while operating within a broader architecture governance model.
This role contributes directly to the design and evolution of Finance platforms, including ERP, reconciliation, treasury, reporting, and integration layers. It operates under the guidance of a Senior Architect and Dev leadership but is expected to work independently on defined problem spaces and initiatives. The role focuses on financial platforms and the post-transaction financial lifecycle, rather than merchant-facing or real-time payment authorization platforms.
What Paysafe Stands For
- Being open and honest.
- Keeping focused.
- Operating with Courage.
- Pioneering the future.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
