Who we are

idataraya is a Malaysian software company. We design, build and then operate the systems our clients run their organisations on, across payments, healthcare, retail, property and the public sector.

The engineers who design and build a system are the ones who keep it running afterwards. That is the shape of the whole company, and it is why the roles here look the way they do.

The team

Enterprise engineering. Discovery, architecture, delivery and run for the systems clients operate on.

About the role

You shape the architecture during discovery and stay attached while it is built and run. Architecture here is not handed to a separate team once the diagram is finished.

What you will do

  • Run discovery with the client and turn what you learn into an architecture.
  • Set the integration approach, the data model and the non functional requirements.
  • Review the build against the design, and adjust the design when it is wrong.
  • Stay involved through go-live and the first year of operation.

What you will bring

  • Experience designing systems that were then actually built and run.
  • Fluency in integration patterns, data modelling and security requirements.
  • The ability to explain a technical decision to a non technical client sponsor.
  • Comfort being accountable for a design afterwards, because there is no handover.

What we offer

  • Ownership of real systems from the first architecture session through to live operation, rather than a slice of someone else's design.
  • Direct contact with the people using what you build, with no account layer in between.
  • Work delivered in two to four week increments, demonstrated and accepted before the next one starts.
  • More than twenty production engines underneath the client systems, so the same problem is rarely solved twice.

We consider every applicant on what they have built and how they work. Tell us about your experience in your own words, and we will come back to you either way.
