Job description

Amach is an industry-leading technology driven company with headquarters located in Dublin and remote teams in UK and Europe.

Our blended teams of local and nearshore talent are optimised to deliver high quality and collaborative solutions.

Founded in 2013, Amach was created to solve a specific problem in aviation: too much complexity, too little usable intelligence. We help airlines modernise their operating model using cloud, data and Al-delivered by teams with deep aviation domain expertise. Our goal is to maximize airlines' operational efficiency by optimizing resource use, reduce costs and increase customer experience and satisfaction.

We are seeking a Principal Architect to be embedded with our customer, working at a strategic and hands-on level to define technology strategy, roadmaps, architectural principles and guardrails across multiple domains. You will provide cross-domain direction and governance while translating high-level business direction into applicable standards and practical guidance for the customer's delivery teams. This role requires someone who can balance enterprise-wide architectural thinking with direct programme delivery capability and technical credibility.

Required Experience:

• 8+ years of enterprise or multi-domain architecture experience, with proven ability to operate at both strategic and hands-on technical levels
• Demonstrated track record defining technology strategies, architectural roadmaps and governance frameworks in complex, multi-platform environments
• Strong experience translating business requirements into architectural principles and standards that guide delivery teams
• Ability to work across multiple technical domains (e.g. cloud, data, integration, AI, infrastructure) without being limited to a single specialisation
• Experience working in customer-facing or embedded roles, comfortable building relationships with stakeholders and technical teams across an organisation
• Define and articulate technology strategy and architectural roadmaps aligned with the customer's business objectives
• Establish architectural principles, standards and guardrails that provide clear governance across multiple domains without becoming prescriptive
• Translate high-level strategic direction into actionable architectural standards that guide the customer's delivery teams
• Provide cross-domain technical direction and oversight, ensuring consistency and coherence across the customer's technology landscape
• Work closely with the customer's stakeholders to understand business priorities and constraints, embedding architectural thinking into programme delivery
• Lead architectural reviews and decision-making forums, balancing enterprise governance with delivery team autonomy
• Mentor and guide the customer's technical leadership on architecture patterns, emerging technologies and best practices
• Background in aviation, airline operations or travel technology
• Familiarity with cloud-native architectures, data platforms and AI/ML integration in enterprise settings
• Experience with agile at scale and programme delivery governance in large organisations
• Knowledge of architectural frameworks such as TOGAF or similar enterprise architecture methodologies

What’s in it for you:

• An opportunity to join a fast-growing company
• Options for career advancement
• Learning and development opportunities
• Flexible working environment
• Competitive salaries based on experience
