Job description

We are Lenovo. We do what we say. We own what we do. We WOW our customers.

Lenovo is a US$83 billion revenue global technology powerhouse, ranked #153 in the Fortune Global 500, and serving millions of customers every day in 180 markets. Focused on a bold vision to deliver Smarter Technology for All, Lenovo has built on its success as the world’s largest PC company with a full-stack portfolio of AI-enabled, AI-ready, and AI-optimized devices (PCs, workstations, smartphones, tablets), infrastructure (server, storage, edge, high performance computing and software defined infrastructure), software, solutions, and services. Lenovo’s continued investment in world-changing innovation is building a more equitable, trustworthy, and smarter future for everyone, everywhere. Lenovo is listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange under Lenovo Group Limited (HKSE: 992) (ADR: LNVGY).

The Technology Architect is a senior, client-facing architecture leader responsible for end-to-end solution architecture across the full client lifecycle—from opportunity shaping and pre-sales through detailed design, delivery governance, and solution assurance.

This role acts as the single architectural authority for complex client engagements, ensuring that proposed and delivered solutions are technically robust, commercially viable, secure, and clearly aligned to client business outcomes. The Technology Architect bridges business strategy and technology execution, translating client needs into scalable, supportable, and future-ready architectures.

Key Responsibilities

End-to-End Solution Architecture:

• Own the overall solution architecture for client engagements, covering infrastructure, cloud, platforms, integration, security, and managed services.
• Design architectures that integrate legacy environments with modern cloud, SaaS, API-driven, and managed service platforms.
• Ensure solutions are aligned with non-functional requirements including performance, availability, scalability, security, compliance, and cost efficiency.
• Produce and govern high-quality architectural artefacts such as High-Level Designs (HLDs), architecture diagrams, data and integration flows, and design principles.

Client Advisory & Architecture Consulting:

• Act as a trusted advisor to client senior stakeholders (e.g. CIO, CTO, IT leadership), providing clear architectural direction and technology recommendations.
• Lead architecture and discovery workshops to capture business, functional, and non-functional requirements.
• Advise clients on architecture modernization, cloud and infrastructure transformation, digital workplace evolution, and Build vs. Buy decisions.
• Identify opportunities to improve, extend, or rationalise client architectures, supporting value creation and long-term client partnerships.

Pre-Sales & Opportunity Shaping:

• Partner closely with Sales, Pre-Sales, and Delivery teams to support pipeline growth and opportunity qualification.
• Lead the technical solutioning for RFPs, RFIs, and proposals, ensuring clarity, compliance, differentiation, and competitiveness.
• Define solution scope, assumptions, risks, dependencies, effort estimation, and Bill of Materials (BOM) to support accurate and profitable pricing.
• Present solution architectures and value propositions to client stakeholders, translating complex technical concepts into clear business outcomes.

Architecture Governance & Delivery Assurance:

• Act as the architecture design authority throughout delivery, ensuring solutions are implemented in line with approved designs.
• Provide architectural guidance to delivery teams, resolving complex technical issues and managing design trade-offs.
• Ensure adherence to architectural standards, best practices, and security principles across all engagements.
• Proactively manage architectural risks, dependencies, and technical decisions to protect delivery outcomes.

Commercial & Stakeholder Leadership:

• Demonstrate strong commercial awareness, including pricing models (e.g. Fixed Price, Time & Materials, Managed Services) and Statement of Work (SOW) development.
• Balance technical excellence with commercial realities, ensuring solutions are both fit-for-purpose and profitable.
• Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams, including Sales, Delivery, Operations, Security, and external partners.

Required Experience & Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related discipline.
• Architecture framework certification (e.g. TOGAF) or equivalent formal architecture training is highly desirable
• Minimum 15 years of overall IT experience, with at least 5 years in a senior Solution or Technology Architect role delivering large-scale, complex client solutions.
• Proven experience within an IT Service Provider, System Integrator, or Consultancy environment.
• Demonstrated success in designing and governing end-to-end client architectures across pre-sales and delivery phases
• Strong, broad-based knowledge across:
  • Managed Services and Digital Workplace solutions
  • Integration, APIs, and modern application architectures (e.g. microservices)
  • Cybersecurity, DevSecOps, and architecture security principles
  • Exposure to both Western and Eastern technology ecosystems (e.g. XinChuang) is an advantage
• Excellent communication, presentation, and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to influence both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making capabilities.
• Ability to work independently while leading and collaborating within complex, cross-functional teams.
• Comfortable operating at both strategic and hands-on architectural levels
