Tech Architect Practitioner

Accountabilities

• Lead technical architecture workstreams across complex client engagements, assessing applications, infrastructure, cloud environments, integration patterns, data platforms, and technical constraints.


• Define pragmatic target-state architectures that align business priorities with application, infrastructure, data, security, scalability, resilience, and delivery requirements.


• Advise clients on technology platform and architecture decisions, including cloud platforms, application modernisation, infrastructure, integration, software delivery tooling, data platforms, and analytics environments.


• Translate business and technology requirements into clear architecture principles, technical designs, transition approaches, and delivery priorities.


• Develop and present architecture recommendations that are credible to senior technology leaders while remaining accessible and actionable for non-technical stakeholders.


• Identify technical risks, dependencies, technical debt, architectural constraints, and delivery challenges, recommending practical mitigation strategies.


• Collaborate with client teams and multidisciplinary specialists to ensure architecture decisions support product, engineering, cloud, security, data, and broader transformation objectives.


• Challenge assumptions and pressure-test proposed designs, balancing strategic ambition with cost, complexity, resilience, and time to value.


• Develop prioritised technology roadmaps that help clients move from current-state limitations toward scalable, resilient, and fit-for-purpose technology capabilities.

• Significant experience in technical, solutions, or enterprise architecture, software engineering, or related technical leadership roles, with a proven track record of designing and delivering complex technology solutions.


• Strong practical knowledge of modern technology architectures and platforms, including cloud services, application architecture, infrastructure, integration patterns, software delivery practices, security, and reliability.


• Demonstrated experience assessing existing technology estates and defining target-state architectures, transition strategies, and delivery roadmaps.


• Strong understanding of cloud technologies, security, resilience, observability, performance, scalability, and operational considerations.


• Meaningful expertise in data architecture and modern data platforms, including data warehouses, data lakes, lakehouses, integration patterns, data modelling, data governance, data quality, and analytics.


• Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, practical recommendations for senior business, data, and technology stakeholders.


• Credibility when working with senior technology leaders, including CTOs, CIOs, CDOs, Heads of Engineering, Heads of Data, and enterprise architects.


• Experience across the full technology lifecycle, from architecture and platform design through software delivery, deployment, operations, modernisation, and continuous improvement.


• Practical and hands-on mindset, with the ability to move between architecture design, technical problem-solving, and client-facing advisory work.


• Consulting, advisory, or multi-client delivery experience is desirable, together with the ability to operate effectively in ambiguous and fast-moving environments.

• Opportunity to lead high-impact technology architecture engagements across a diverse range of clients and business contexts.


• Exposure to strategic technology challenges spanning cloud, applications, infrastructure, data, security, integration, and modernisation.


• Direct interaction with senior technology and business leaders, including executive-level stakeholders.


• Opportunity to influence architecture decisions that support measurable business outcomes and long-term technology value.


• Collaborative environment bringing together experienced technology, transformation, commercial, and operational specialists.


• Scope to deepen expertise across modern architecture practices while contributing to complex, multidisciplinary engagements.


• Opportunity to work on varied, challenging projects in a fast-moving and entrepreneurial consulting environment.


• Ability to contribute to practical technology roadmaps and solutions that balance scalability, resilience, cost, complexity, and speed to value.
