Solution Architect

Solutions Architect
Wellington | Permanent | Enterprise Technology

Help shape the next chapter of enterprise technology.If you're a Solutions Architect who enjoys solving complex problems, influencing technology strategy, and working with people as much as platforms, this could be the opportunity you've been looking for. We're working with a well-established Wellington organisation that's investing heavily in its digital future. They're modernising enterprise platforms, embracing cloud technologies, strengthening security, exploring AI and automation, and building solutions that will support the business for years to come.

This is a role where you'll have genuine influence. You'll work alongside senior leaders, technical teams, and delivery partners to design practical, scalable solutions that balance today's priorities with tomorrow's opportunities.
No two days will be the same, and that's exactly what makes it interesting.

What you'll be doing:

• Designing end-to-end solutions across Microsoft Azure, cloud platforms, SaaS products, enterprise applications, integrations, and infrastructure.
• Helping shape the organisation's cloud strategy and modern Solutions-as-a-Service approach.
• Supporting initiatives across AI, automation, and digital transformation.
• Working with enterprise data platforms, including data integration, cleansing, governance, and quality improvements.
• Designing secure cloud solutions that put security, privacy, and resilience at the centre.
• Developing integration strategies with external organisations and partner agencies.
• Producing architecture artefacts, technical roadmaps, and solution documentation that enable successful delivery.
• Providing architecture governance and technical leadership across multiple projects.
• Working closely with vendors, project teams, and business stakeholders to deliver practical outcomes.

What you'll bringYou'll already have solid experience as a Solutions Architect or in a senior technical design role within a complex environment.
You'll also bring:

• Strong Azure and cloud architecture experience.
• A background designing enterprise applications, integrations, SaaS platforms, and infrastructure solutions.
• Experience with enterprise data platforms, data integration, and data quality initiatives.
• Knowledge of AI, automation, and modern technology trends.
• A strong understanding of cloud security, enterprise architecture, and solution governance.
• The confidence to work across both technical and business teams, bringing people together to solve problems.

People skills matter here - One of the biggest parts of this role is communication.
You'll spend time working closely with the Senior Leadership Team (SLT), helping them understand technology decisions, presenting solution options, and influencing strategic direction.
The ability to explain complex ideas in plain English, build trust, and bring people on the journey is just as important as your technical capability.
If you're someone who enjoys white-boarding a solution one minute and presenting it to executives the next, you'll fit right in.

You'll get the opportunity to:

• Influence enterprise technology strategy.
• Work across Azure, AI, automation, cloud security, enterprise data, and modern digital platforms.
• Help shape technology decisions that have long-term impact.
• Work alongside experienced professionals who value collaboration and good ideas.
• Be part of a supportive Wellington team that enjoys solving problems together.
