Talent Community | Current & Future Client Opportunities

About This Opportunity

At Trissential, we partner with some of North America's most respected organizations to lead business transformation, operational improvement, and technology modernization initiatives. Our clients aren't simply implementing new technology—we're improving how their businesses operate, strengthening customer experiences, enabling employee effectiveness, and delivering measurable business outcomes.

We're growing our community of experienced Architecture consultants to support current and upcoming client initiatives. Our architects help organizations transform business capabilities by designing technology solutions that align business strategy, enterprise architecture, and modern technology platforms. They partner with business and technology leaders to develop practical, scalable architectures that enable innovation while delivering measurable business value.

Whether you bring five years of architecture experience or fifteen-plus years leading enterprise architecture and technology strategy, you'll have opportunities to apply your expertise on meaningful client engagements while building trusted relationships and delivering lasting business value.

What You\'ll Do

Depending on the engagement, you may be responsible for:

• Business & Technology Strategy
  • Partnering with business and technology leaders to understand strategic objectives, business capabilities, and transformation priorities.
  • Translating business strategy into technology strategies, architectural roadmaps, and implementation approaches.
  • Assessing current-state business and technology environments to identify modernization opportunities and architectural improvements.
  • Defining future-state architectures that balance business value, technical feasibility, scalability, security, and operational sustainability.
  • Providing trusted advisory services to executive stakeholders on technology investments, architectural strategy, and long-term business capabilities.

• Architecture & Solution Design
  • Designing enterprise, solution, application, data, integration, cloud, infrastructure, AI, or technology architectures that align with business objectives.
  • Developing conceptual, logical, and physical architecture models that support current and future business capabilities.
  • Defining architectural principles, standards, reference architectures, design patterns, and best practices.
  • Evaluating technology platforms, products, vendor solutions, and emerging technologies.
  • Creating architecture documentation, decision records, solution diagrams, and implementation guidance.
  • Ensuring solutions are scalable, secure, resilient, maintainable, and aligned with enterprise standards while supporting practical business outcomes.

• Delivery & Technical Leadership
  • Partnering with business analysts, product teams, developers, infrastructure engineers, data teams, and project leaders throughout solution delivery.
  • Providing technical leadership during implementation while ensuring alignment to the intended architectural vision.
  • Supporting backlog refinement, solution decomposition, implementation planning, and technical decision-making.
  • Reviewing solution designs, configurations, and implementations for architectural quality and compliance.
  • Resolving complex technical and cross-functional design challenges.
  • Balancing enterprise architecture standards, governance, and best practices with practical business needs by evaluating tradeoffs and recommending solutions that optimize business value, delivery speed, risk, and long-term sustainability.
  • Preparing and presenting architecture designs, solution recommendations, and technical decisions to Architecture Review Boards, governance committees, and executive stakeholders while collaborating on design refinements and achieving organizational alignment.

• Data, Integration & Emerging Technologies
  • Designing data architectures, information models, APIs, integrations, event-driven solutions, and intelligent technology ecosystems where appropriate.
  • Supporting cloud modernization, platform integration, AI enablement, automation, and intelligent business capabilities.
  • Defining approaches for data governance, interoperability, security, scalability, and operational resilience.
  • Leveraging AI-assisted engineering and architecture tools to accelerate solution analysis, evaluate architectural alternatives, generate architecture artifacts, improve documentation quality, and increase delivery effectiveness.
  • Using AI to perform architecture quality reviews, challenge design assumptions, identify risks, evaluate tradeoffs, and strengthen proposed solutions through structured validation and "red team" analysis.
  • Evaluating emerging technologies and recommending practical applications that create measurable business value.

• Governance & Continuous Improvement
  • Establishing architecture governance processes, design reviews, and technology standards.
  • Identifying technical debt, architectural risks, dependencies, and modernization opportunities.
  • Driving consistency across enterprise platforms, applications, products, and business capabilities.
  • Supporting technology roadmaps and long-term architecture evolution.
  • Continuously improving architecture practices, reusable patterns, standards, and governance processes.

• Consulting & Stakeholder Leadership
  • Building trusted relationships with executives, business leaders, product teams, engineering organizations, and technology partners.
  • Communicating complex architectural concepts, design decisions, and technical tradeoffs to both technical and non-technical audiences in a clear, logical, and professional manner.
  • Facilitating architecture workshops, design sessions, and strategic planning discussions.
  • Building consensus among business leaders, architects, engineering teams, and governance organizations to deliver practical, scalable solutions that balance competing priorities.
  • Influencing technology decisions through collaboration, credibility, and sound architectural judgment rather than authority alone.
  • Providing thought leadership that helps clients balance innovation, delivery speed, cost, operational sustainability, and long-term business value.
