The Opportunity

We are looking to grow our team of client-facing solution architects. In this role, you will translate client requirements into designs for sustainable digital solutions, support development work with our software engineering teams, and provide technical assurance for complex projects.

Your work will typically include the technical design of new digital applications and services for clients, including solutions that use cloud services, data integration and analytics platforms, AI and machine learning-driven approaches, and GIS applications.

Our strength comes from how we respect, share and connect our diverse experiences, perspectives and ideas.

We’re looking for candidates who:

• You have experience delivering technology projects or products in an IT function, IT services or IT consulting environment, regardless of previous job title.
• You understand one or more architecture practices, such as solution, cloud, data, enterprise architecture or systems integration.
• You can take a proactive, structured approach to problem solving and produce deliverables such as high-level designs, technology options assessments, non-functional requirements and interface specifications.
• You are comfortable working with clients and cross-functional teams, and bring knowledge of software delivery, data management, architecture modelling in built environment markets such as energy, water, rail, highways, aviation, buildings or sustainability.
