Solutions Architect (Cloud)
Do you want to work for an exciting Irish financial services firm in North Dublin that is thriving and expanding? This newly created role reports to the Head of IT Architecture and is responsible for creating and maintaining the architecture and processes for governance, risk, and compliance within the organization.
This role will focus on delivering secure and resilient DORA-compliant solutions in a hybrid cloud environment (both public and private Azure), utilizing primarily on-premise infrastructure alongside public cloud services (Azure, M365).
With a great team and company culture, this is a high-impact role suited for a technical architect ready to step up into solutions architecture.
Job Responsibilities:
* Actively support the development and enhancement of IT strategy, governance, and architecture.
* Design target states for technology architecture and operating models as needed.
* Facilitate the evaluation and selection of software/hardware and design both standard and custom software configurations.
* Define and drive best practices in a hybrid infrastructure environment.
* Identify opportunities for continuous improvement and ensure improvement initiatives are documented and actioned.
* Promote collaboration and engagement across the team.
* Create deliverables, including architecture diagrams and descriptions, solution blueprints, and high- and low-level solution designs for secure, scalable, and reliable solution architectures.
* Understand end-to-end business and technical requirements, determining corresponding enterprise system designs and change requirements.
* Work in a highly collaborative manner with cross-functional teams on projects, providing support to ensure alignment with the overall target enterprise architecture and target integration architecture.
* Manage the delivery of architecture governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) requirements.
You:
* A degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or relevant experience, along with an architecture certification (e.g., TOGAF, IASA, or relevant cloud certifications).
* 7+ years of experience in operational topics, with at least 3 years as an architect/technical lead in a regulated entity (experience in the insurance industry or another regulated sector is an advantage).
* Hands-on experience designing solutions for hybrid environments, particularly with on-premise private cloud solutions.
* Experience working with M365 and Microsoft Azure, including PaaS, SaaS, and IaaS technologies (strongly preferred).
* Strong experience in architecture governance, compliance, and risk management processes.
* Solid knowledge of architectural patterns, IT standards, and IT controls (including IT risk management).
* Experience using one or more architecture tools for design.
* Proven ability to engage with both internal and external stakeholders, both technical and non-technical.
