• Lead solution architecture across enterprise platforms, analytics and large-scale integrations
• 12-month contract + 12-month extension option
• Australian citizenship required | Must be able to obtain Baseline clearance

Take on a senior architecture role with technical ownership across complex enterprise platforms, analytical solutions and large-scale integrations.

You’ll work across business, architecture, delivery and procurement teams to shape cohesive solution designs, provide technical direction and ensure solutions remain aligned to broader technology strategy. The role also has a strong focus on enterprise analytics and CRM/integration environments.

The Role

As a Senior Solution Architect, you’ll provide architectural leadership across complex initiatives while maintaining ownership of solution design, documentation and technical governance.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Leading the design of fit-for-purpose solution architectures across complex enterprise platforms
• Translating business objectives and capability needs into technical requirements and solution designs
• Providing technical oversight and resolving complex issues throughout delivery
• Working closely with enterprise architects, solution leads, developers and business stakeholders to ensure alignment across domains
• Representing solutions through architecture governance, review and decision-making forums

About You

We’re particularly interested in:

• 7+ years’ architecture experience with a strong background leading complex enterprise platform design
• Experience developing and deploying enterprise-scale analytical solutions, particularly SAS
• Experience leading architecture across large-scale CRM and/or integration initiatives
• Salesforce experience would be highly regarded
• Strong stakeholder management and the ability to translate business capability into technical requirements
• Experience balancing project, program and organisational priorities across tactical and strategic objectives

TOGAF or equivalent architecture certification, along with Azure or AWS experience, would also be valuable.

Why Consider the Opportunity?

This is a broad architecture role with scope to work across enterprise platforms, analytics and integration rather than being tied to one technology domain.

You’ll have visibility across both strategy and delivery, with responsibility for shaping solution direction, guiding technical teams and representing designs through governance and review processes.

Hybrid working is available, with a minimum of three days per week in the office and flexibility for the remaining two days, subject to agreement.

Integration Domain Architect (EL 2 Equivalent) | Enterprise Integration Architecture & Strategic Technology Direction

• Location: ACT-Based (Hybrid)
• Security Clearance: NV1-Cleared (Mandatory)
• Contract Length: 12 Months + 12 Month Extension (Based on the sole discretion of Department)

About the Position:

This is a senior architecture role for someone who is comfortable setting direction, not just reviewing individual solutions.

The focus is on shaping the integration domain architecture, defining the target state, strategic roadmap, standards and guardrails that guide how systems, platforms and services work together across a complex enterprise environment.

You’ll work across programs, projects and multidisciplinary teams, helping resolve architectural issues that cut across systems and organisational boundaries. The role also carries real influence into investment and prioritisation decisions, particularly where integration, cloud, data, security and digital platforms intersect.

At this level, the expectation is clear: provide authoritative advice, manage trade-offs, and help senior stakeholders make better technology decisions with a longer-term view.

What You’ll Do:

• Develop and maintain the integration domain architecture, target state, strategic roadmap, standards and reusable patterns.
• Provide authoritative architectural leadership across programs and initiatives, ensuring solution designs align with enterprise direction and security requirements.
• Lead analysis of complex architectural dependencies, risks and trade-offs, and provide clear recommendations to governance forums and senior stakeholders.
• Influence investment, sequencing and prioritisation decisions while mentoring architects and technical specialists across the domain.

What We Are Looking For:

• 8+ years’ experience designing and delivering complex enterprise integration solutions, including senior or principal architecture responsibility.
• Strong experience developing domain architecture, standards, patterns and governance across multiple systems, programs or delivery initiatives.
• Broad understanding of integration, cloud, data, security and digital platforms, and how those domains interact.
• Proven ability to influence executives, architects and delivery teams while resolving complex architectural issues and competing priorities.

Technology & Environment:

• Enterprise Integration Architecture
• Cloud, Data, Security & Digital Platforms
• Architecture Governance, Standards & Roadmaps
• TOGAF / Advanced Cloud Architecture Certifications (Desirable)

A Quick Note Before You Apply:

This role is unlikely to suit Solution Architects whose experience has been focused primarily on individual project or application designs without broader ownership of domain strategy, architecture governance and enterprise-wide integration direction.

The stronger fit is someone who can operate confidently at both strategic and delivery levels: setting the architecture direction, understanding cross-domain dependencies, influencing senior stakeholders and guiding teams toward consistent, interoperable outcomes.

Applicants must be Australian Citizens, hold a minimum NV1 Security Clearance.
