About the Role
We are seeking an experienced and vision-driven Enterprise Architect to define, shape, and drive global technology strategy and architectural roadmaps. In this role, you will bridge the gap between complex business strategy and technical execution, ensuring application, data, digital, and cloud ecosystems are scalable, secure, and aligned with overall business growth. You will lead the continuous evolution of technology landscape, with a heavy emphasis on enterprise cloud transformations (primarily AWS), application modernisation, and data integration across diverse business divisions.
Responsibilities
- Formulate and execute the enterprise-wide target operating model and multi-year technology roadmaps aligned with global corporate strategic objectives.
- Analyze complex business requirements, market trends, and emerging technologies to make authoritative technology investment and modernization recommendations.
- Rationalize, standardize, and optimize legacy technical estates to reduce complexity, eliminate technical debt, and lower total cost of ownership (TCO).
- Lead the architectural design and governance of high-scale cloud platforms, with primary accountability for AWS landing zones, core platform services, multi-cloud strategies, and cloud security patterns.
- Provide design authority for cloud migrations, microservices adoption, serverless architectures, and API-first integrations across internal and external applications.
- Partner with DevOps, Cloud Infrastructure, and FinOps teams to ensure workloads are well-architected for high availability, security resilience, cost efficiency, and performance.
- Define enterprise reference architectures, policies, patterns, and principles across business, application, data, and infrastructure domains.
- Act as a trusted technical advisor to senior executive stakeholders, translating complex technical concepts into clear business outcomes and aligning regional initiatives with central enterprise standards.
Requirements
- 10+ years of progressive IT experience, with at least 5+ years in a senior Enterprise Architect or Principal Architect capacity within a global, matrixed organization.
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related discipline.
- Deep expertise in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) ecosystem.
- Experience in hybrid or multi-cloud setups is a plus.
- Hands-on background in event-driven architecture, microservices, domain-driven design (DDD), API gateways, and CI/CD automation pipelines.
- Familiarity with modern enterprise data architectures (Data Lakes/Mesh, ETL/ELT pipelines, business intelligence tools) and enterprise application integrations (iPaaS, Message Queues).
- Strong practical application of enterprise governance methodologies.
- Exceptional verbal and written presentation skills with a demonstrated ability to influence senior non-technical business partners across diverse cultural and geographic regions.
- Strong financial awareness to evaluate ROI, cloud cost control, and vendor licensing models.
- Proven ability to mentor solution architects, promote architectural best practices, and drive collaborative consensus across disparate business units.
