Siemens Digital Industries Software is a leading provider of solutions for the design, simulation, and manufacture of products across many different industries. Formula 1 cars, skyscrapers, ships, space exploration vehicles, and many of the objects we see in our daily lives are being conceived and manufactured using our Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software.

Position Overview

As an Enterprise Architect supporting the Marine Design solutions portfolio, you will provide senior architectural leadership across major customer programmes. You will own the end-to-end architecture, ensuring customer strategy, digital transformation goals and Siemens solutions remain aligned.

A key part of the role is to de-risk the solution by focusing on customer value, technical fit, programme dependencies and future product alignment. Working with customer stakeholders, Business Development, Solution Architects, PMO and delivery teams, you will define the architectural vision, shape long‑term roadmaps and ensure delivery stays aligned to strategic outcomes.

You will act as a trusted advisor, helping customers maximise value while driving consistent, scalable solution adoption across the maritime domain.

Key Responsibilities

Enterprise Architecture & Strategy

• Own the enterprise architecture strategy and roadmap for maritime customers, balancing current delivery needs with long‑term customer goals
• Translate business strategy into clear architecture direction, solution blueprints and high‑level roadmaps
• Drive architectural consistency across programmes, with a maritime‑wide view rather than isolated point solutions
• Assess alignment with Siemens product direction, industry trends and customer outcomes

Solution De-risking & Value Assurance

• Identify and manage key solution risks, including business value, technical fit, configuration, integrations, dependencies and future scalability
• Help teams understand trade‑offs and avoid decisions that create downstream delivery or product‑alignment risk
• Challenge whether the programme is delivering maximum customer value and identify opportunities for increased adoption and growth
• Work with Product Development to shape solutions around customer needs and future Siemens capability

Governance & Architectural Leadership

• Act as the architectural authority across the maritime solution landscape
• Ensure architecture decisions are transparent, traceable and aligned to the agreed direction
• Set governance standards and best practice for the Solution Architecture team
• Support Solution Architects and delivery teams with clear direction on design, integration and transformation

Customer Engagement & Stakeholder Management

• Engage senior customer stakeholders to understand strategic goals and priorities
• Show how current and future Siemens solutions can support those goals
• Lead discussions on digital transformation, PLM adoption and maritime digitalisation
• Act as a trusted advisor, balancing customer ambition, delivery reality and Siemens product direction

Solution Leadership & Delivery Oversight

• Ensure solution delivery remains aligned with the agreed architecture, roadmap and programme commitments
• Translate strategy into practical architecture direction and delivery priorities
• Work with the Lead Solution Architect and PMO to connect roadmap, governance and delivery activity
• Maintain clear visibility of programme‑level dependencies, integrations and the overall maritime architecture

Innovation & Continuous Improvement

• Stay current with maritime digitalisation, industry trends and emerging technologies
• Drive innovation in digital thread and marine design transformation
• Feed lessons learned into reusable frameworks, governance patterns and customer‑facing artefacts

Qualifications

• Proven experience as an Enterprise Architect, Lead Architect or equivalent senior architecture role within complex transformation programmes
• Experience with enterprise architecture frameworks, architecture governance and multi‑programme solution roadmaps
• Proven experience with Defence customers; maritime customer experience is highly desirable
• Strong knowledge of the PLM ecosystem, preferably including Teamcenter and Design Center, with the ability to connect solution choices to business outcomes
• Strong leadership and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to influence senior customer and Siemens stakeholders
• Eligible for UK security clearance
