Position Description:
Historically, the role of IT has been to provide a reliable ecosystem to run the business, drive efficiencies and reduce costs. These areas remain integral, however, driven by the quickening pace of innovation, IT must evolve, proactively partnering with the business to enable new digital business models that power new types of customer engagement.
The Architect role provides technical thought leadership, contributing to the business vision, with the autonomy to make key design decisions, as well as influence technology investments. Therefore, the Solution Architect role requires technical breadth and depth (specifically application architecture, software engineering and SaaS solutions), as well as a proven track record of enterprise delivery.
This role will be positioned supporting the Commercial teams to enable the future business and IT vision. The role will require strong partnership across the Commercial business, IT, multiple functions and the enterprise to ensure the technology foundation and decisions align with architecture principals. Partnership with the Commercial Business, Digital Product Delivery and Product Management teams and serving as an advisor is essential to help inform strategic direction as it relates to technology decisions.
To be successful the role requires a highly motivated individual, with an innovative and strategic mindset, bias for action, proactive communication, and ability to form and communicate strong perspective, a willingness to drive tangible business outcomes. The individual must be able to articulate and translate complex technical topics to stakeholders, help lift the technical competency of teams, collaborate with internal / external partners, and ensure alignment to architectural principles and standards and contribute to business outcomes.
