Job description

Director - Victoria at Emanate Technology

About the Role

Let’s be upfront, this isn’t your standard architecture gig. It’s a chance to shape both the tech strategy and digital experience, covering everything from Salesforce and martech to portals, CMS, and custom applications — front end, back end, and integrations that tie it all together.

Ideal for a Principal on the rise or an Architect early in their journey who has delivered real solutions and wants to own a domain while staying close to the tech and making a real impact.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Own architecture for the digital domain, including customer portals, mobile apps, Salesforce, martech, and the front-end, back-end, and integration layers.
• Set the direction — develop standards, practices, and lightweight governance where it’s currently lacking.
• Act as a servant leader to squads, influencing without blocking, and empowering teams to own their architecture.
• Support broader CI/CD uplift and engineering modernization.
• Build real partnerships with stakeholders — both technical and business.
• Work closely with engineering squads to guide architectural decisions and help shape what good looks like across digital platforms.
• Help grow the architecture capability as the team scales from 3 to 5 in the next year.

About You

You’re not just an Architect — you’re a connector, enabler, and change agent. Comfortable drawing solution diagrams as well as influencing senior stakeholders or coaching engineers.

• You come from Engineering and understand what makes real-world architecture work.
• Strong experience in digital architecture: customer-facing portals, mobile apps, websites, CMS, and the technical architecture that powers them (back-end, front-end, APIs, services, integrations).
• Working knowledge of CRM architecture, preferably Salesforce, but flexible.
• Confident across all architectural layers: integrations, security, cloud platforms (AWS), and modern API design.
• Appreciation for CI/CD, DevOps, pipelines, and platform maturity.
• Strong business and stakeholder acumen — able to bring people along without over-engineering.
• Enjoys working in a small, growing architecture team, helping to shape its DNA.

Expectations

• Shape Something Real: Influence an evolving architecture practice and how things are done.
• Change That Matters: Modernize platforms and uplift digital experiences for customers and internal users.
• Lean, Collaborative Team: Join a close-knit team working with Principal Architects and Engineering Leads.
• Generous Leave: 29 days annual leave, including flexi days and Christmas shutdown.
• Wellbeing Support: Wellbeing budget, income protection, and hybrid work (3 days in-office).
