Role
We are seeking a Senior IT Infrastructure Solution Architect to serve as a technical authority for enterprise infrastructure across a globally distributed environment.
This role sits at the intersection of architecture, engineering, and strategy—shaping the design, evolution, and governance of core infrastructure platforms spanning data centres, hybrid cloud, enterprise networking, identity, and security.
You will operate at an enterprise level, influencing cross-functional teams and senior stakeholders, while driving standardisation, scalability, and resilience across both manufacturing and corporate domains.

Responsibilities

• Act as the technical authority for enterprise-wide infrastructure across global operations
• Define and govern reference architectures, standards, and design guardrails
• Oversee shared services including data centres, cloud platforms, networking, identity, and security foundations
• Collaborate with infrastructure and service leads to ensure alignment across domains
• Lead the design of scalable, secure, and highly available infrastructure platforms
• Support manufacturing systems, enterprise applications, and data/analytics initiatives
• Drive modernisation across virtualisation, container platforms, storage, and network segmentation
• Define and evolve hybrid and multi-cloud strategies (AWS, Azure, GCP)
• Establish enterprise patterns for secure connectivity, identity federation, and cost governance
• Enable platforms for application hosting, data aggregation, and disaster recovery
• Balance cloud adoption with regulatory, IP protection, and cost considerations
• Contribute to architecture governance, design reviews, and lifecycle decisions
• Lead risk assessments and provide guidance on high-impact changes
• Influence engineering and operations teams through strong technical leadership
• Embed resiliency, recoverability, and security-by-design into all platforms
• Lead technical engagements with key vendors and strategic partners
