The Financial Crime Technology team requires specialist Apache Cassandra (NoSQL) expertise to support the design and operational readiness of high-volume, real-time data platforms underpinning the fraud detection ecosystem. This capability does not currently exist in-house, as the team's core expertise is centred on Actimize application engineering, Oracle PL/SQL, and integration middleware (IIB/MQ). This is a time-bound requirement aligned to specific deliverables, including the real-time payment capture and replay platform and its supporting data infrastructure, rather than a permanent headcount need. As such, a contract engagement is the most appropriate and cost-effective resourcing model. Without this role, delivery timelines are at risk, and critical design decisions (such as keyspace design, replication strategy, and capacity planning) may be made without specialist input, increasing the risk of rework and potential production instability.
Key Accountabilities:
- Support the design and operational readiness of high-volume, real-time data platforms.
- Provide specialist input on keyspace design, replication strategy, and capacity planning.
- Ensure timely delivery of specific project deliverables.
