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.

Your day at NTT DATA
As a Senior Solutions Architect at NTT DATA, you will play an essential role in collaborating with clients and internal teams to create advanced, transformational designs and architectural visions for complex solutions. Your expertise will drive the development of multi-technology consulting services that span application software, infrastructure, and related technology components.

You will contribute to complex solution architectures in specific business, infrastructure, or functional areas while evaluating alternative architectures for cost, performance, and scalability. By developing detailed specifications for cloud-based or on-premises components, you will ensure robust, cutting-edge solutions that meet our clients' unique needs.

Your hands-on role will involve preparing technical plans and designs that comply with enterprise and solution architecture standards, remaining agile to adapt to changing project requirements. You will be accountable for understanding client requirements, collecting DATA, delivering thorough analysis, and providing effective problem resolution.

Keeping ahead of industry trends and emerging technologies, you will produce insightful reports and technology roadmaps, sharing your knowledge with internal teams and clients alike. By creating multiple design views, you will address both functional and non-functional requirements, offering innovative solutions with proof-of-concept (POC) implementations. You will also mentor and guide less experienced colleagues, contributing to our collaborative culture.

To thrive in this role, you need to have:

• Advanced knowledge of multi-vendor service integrations and cross-functional software, operating systems, and infrastructure designs.
• In-depth understanding of how specific infrastructures and application software are deployed in line with methodologies such as TOGAF, Zachman, SOA, ITIL, and COBIT.
• Ability to develop and utilize advanced specialist knowledge of reference architectures.
• Extensive experience in technical, IT, or operations roles within large-scale technology services environments.
• Strong client engagement and consulting experience, including needs assessment and change management.
• Proven ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams such as sales, product, and delivery.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to build strong working relationships with both internal and external stakeholders.
• A continuous learning mindset to stay updated on trends and developments in technology domains.
• A bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, business, or a related field.

Required Experience

• The position requires a minimum of five years of industry experience, deep knowledge of the networking portfolio for core partners (Cisco/HPE Aruba/Juniper), and significant experience in digital infrastructure modernization.
• Advanced professional technical, IT or Operations experience within a large scale (preferably multi- national) network environments on the following areas: Design, Deploy, Operate, Automate and Support.
• Advanced Project or Program Management experience would be preferred but not essential.
• Advanced client engagement and consulting experience coupled with solid experience in client needs assessment and change management.
• Advanced experience in integrating the solution for the particular project with the business domain, enterprise concerns, industry standards, established patterns and best practices.
• Advanced experience in developing, selling and delivering technical solutions.
