Your role

The work is to both identify and create solutions within the Intelligent Industry (Industry 4.0) banner which is a collection of multiple technologies tailored to deliver improvements in productivity, lead-time, information, IoT technologies, asset management etc. often within several parallel projects and industries. The primary task is to undertake the development and maintenance of professional solution requirement specifications and to gain acceptance of these from internal and external stakeholders within quality controls and timeframes specified under related service levels.  

Delivering architectural clarity and driving integrated solutions, you’ll help shape capability roadmaps and system strategies across short, medium and long-term horizons. As a trusted technical adviser, you’ll bridge vision and execution—ensuring robust architectures, client engagement, and system alignment every step of the way.

  • Provide expert consultation, system analysis, and client support throughout the development lifecycle—from research to live demonstrations and issue resolution.
  • Develop and compare solution architectures, elicit system behaviours and constraints, and work with bid and project managers to assess cost-effective options.

Your profile

We’re looking for a Solution Architect with strong experience operating within engineering, operational technology (OT), manufacturing, or telecommunications environments. You’ll bring deep expertise in designing and delivering complex technical solutions and a solid understanding of Industry 4.0 technologies—including IoT, data historians, SCADA systems, edge computing, cyber security, digital twins, and digital control towers. Your background will enable you to translate business needs into robust, future‑ready architectures that enhance operational performance and drive digital transformation.

In this role, you’ll provide technical leadership across the full project lifecycle, from initial requirements capture through to solution handover and knowledge transfer. You’ll be comfortable guiding cross‑functional teams, influencing technical direction, and ensuring architectural integrity throughout delivery. Experience working with a range of enterprise tools and technologies is essential, alongside the ability to adapt quickly within a fast‑paced, innovation‑focused environment.
