Join a company that is pushing the boundaries of what is possible. We are renowned for our technical excellence and leading innovations, and for making a difference to our clients and society. Our workplace embraces diversity and inclusion – it’s a place where you can grow, belong and thrive.

As our Consulting Services department continues to expand, we are seeking a Technical Architect with deep expertise in both automation and network infrastructure to support our customers.

With a team of over 50 employees, the Technology Consulting Services at NTT DATA Belgium provides strategic guidance and support to assist organizations in navigating the complexities of digital transformation and technology modernization. By thoroughly understanding clients' business objectives, we help develop a corresponding technology and architecture strategy and roadmap while remaining pragmatic.

Key Responsibilities

• You will be expected to conduct consultative engagements with clients to assess their current state in both network and automation maturity and define a target architecture that aligns with their business requirements and ambition. Those engagements are mainly composed of:
• an evaluation of a client current maturity;
• the identification of user/business stories and an evaluation of their implementation gains and difficulties;
• the elaboration of an architecture that responds to those needs and an associated prioritised roadmap of evolution.
• You will drive those engagements across the complete client journey including the delivery phase where you will ensure the technical end-to-end coherence of the proposed solution.
• You will develop standardized consultative engagement templates in response to reoccurring client needs. As owner of such you will be expected to maintain such engagement templates as well as developing sales enablement collateral (e.g., case studies or short descriptions) and raise internal awareness of such engagements.
• We will rely on you to build and develop business cases based on such assessments and present and explain the value of proposed infrastructure to clients in a consultative manner.
• You will design solution architecture and multi‑phased migration programs that address technology, people and/or organization and process change. You will do this in collaboration with our multiple centres of excellence.
• We will need you to maintain broad based technical and solutions knowledge in key IT infrastructure optimisation and solution areas.
• We will rely on you to research and investigate emerging infrastructure technologies and the best practices associated with them (e.g., related to deployment, integration and operation).
• You will be required to drive profound understanding of solutions, best practices and consulting methodologies with clients and colleagues.

Here’s What We Are Looking For In Candidates

• Minimum Bachelor in ICT (Master strongly preferred).
• At least 10 years’ experience in infrastructure architecture or related business.
• You have strong knowledge in the design, deployment, and support of large automation deployments.
• You love maintaining a helicopter view on the whole infrastructure, from networking aspects to cloud computing with a continuous focus on security.
• Expertise in automation technologies (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, Jenkins) and Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
• Good understanding of public cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP) and their automation tools/APIs.
• Experience with software development concepts, CI/CD pipelines, and managing containerized applications.
• Strong knowledge of network technologies (e.g., Wi‑Fi, Switch/Routing, SD‑WAN, OSPF, EIGRP, MPLS, VPN, VLAN, VRF, 802.1x, ZTNA, SASE, SSE) and vendor solutions (e.g., Cisco, Juniper, Aruba, …).
• Good business acumen allowing identification of business opportunities and our clients’ business needs, and delivery of consultative engagements in line with these.
• Strong knowledge of industry technologies and willingness to further maintain and broaden this knowledge.
• Fluent in Dutch to engage in the Flemish region and good verbal and written knowledge of English and French.
• Emotional and stress resilience and ability to autonomously achieve challenging goals.
• Clear and persuasive communication and ability to interact with various stakeholders in a consultative engagement.
• Analytical thinking and excellent problem‑solving ability as well as an appreciation for rigour and objectivity.
• Strong personal initiative and a sense for innovation, to identify efficient and competitive solutions to our clients’ needs, as well as new types of engagements and solutions.
• Work flexibility and willingness to travel if needed.
• Eligible and prepared to obtain NATO clearance if necessary.
