Competitive Salary + Package (Dependent on experience)
(Accenture will be recruiting at the following levels - Manager & Consultant)
As a team:
The Architect is the essence of every project we bring to life from streaming live sport across the world, solving health emergencies to serving customers in new ways with innovative new Digital products.
We’re looking for architects who can support the delivery of increasingly transformational digital products that traverse a diverse range of devices (iOS, Android, smart TVs, embedded technology) and plug into an ecosystem of cloud services at massive scale with millions of users.
We need people who are as comfortable at a whiteboard scribbling a design as they are working on detailed specifications for a distributed team of developers. We’re also looking for architects who are as satisfied with their designs as they are the end product, and can problem solve and overcome challenges at every stage of the lifecycle.
In our team you will learn:
To use the latest in platform engineering including Cloud technologies like AWS, Azure and Google Cloud Platform
How technical architecture expertise can contribute to new sales activities, communicating why the architecture designs meet current and future business requirements.
How to deliver scalable platforms serving millions of users for products with a global reach
How to work day-to-day with clients ranging from developers and testers through to product managers and directors
In this role you will:
Lead the end-to-end design of performant, secure, robust and maintainable platforms architectures across evolving technologies
Support the development and delivery into production of the architecture and coach engineers during delivery using a variety of methodologies
Analyse and resolve architectural problems throughout the lifecycle of the solution working closely with either agile development and operations teams or in a full DevSecOps model
Lead technical architecture design and assessment projects at client sites with key client partners
Cultivate successful, motivated teams across the globe to deliver large transformational technology change for our clients
We are looking for experience in the following skills:
An ability to communicate design concepts to both deeply technical development teams as well as non-technical staff
A deep and practical working knowledge of one (or more) of the major cloud platforms
Solid understanding of key architecture concerns such as security, availability, scalability, operability, maintainability and how to ensure that they are delivered as specified
Knowledge of and experience applying modern architecture principles and patterns
Experience supporting operational platforms in high-scale live production environments
Set yourself apart:
Demonstrable hands-on experience designing, building and maintaining scalable products and platforms
A track record of using technical architecture and modern engineering principles to improve the end user experience and backend functionality of products and platforms
Demonstrable experience of upskilling, teaching and running an engineering or architecture team
Prior experience working with senior technical and non-technical stakeholders on business-critical systems
What’s in it for you
At Accenture in addition to a competitive basic salary, you will also have an extensive benefits package which includes up to 30 days vacation per year, private medical insurance and 3 extra days leave per year for charitable work of your choice!
Flexibility and mobility are required to deliver this role as there will be requirements to spend time onsite with our clients and partners to enable delivery of the first-class services we are known for.
