We're looking for an exceptionally skilled and highly motivated Solution Architect to join the existing Architecture Practice to oversee and support our expanding Engineering capability - both within Australia and the rest of the Group.

Aside from technical excellence, creativity, communication, commercial acumen and resourcefulness are essential skills for this role. Successful candidates must have excellent communication and leadership skills, depth of technical expertise and the ability to work effectively with a broad range of technical and business stakeholders.

 

 

 

• Establish, ratify and advocate principles and practices for managing key application assets within the organisation.
• Take ownership of the design and delivery of complex, performance-intensive products. Advise and support multi-disciplinary Engineering teams throughout all phases of the delivery.
• Collaborate with the broader Architecture and Engineering community to maintain conceptual integrity and sustainably evolve our solution portfolio.
• Provide technical leadership, guidance and mentorship to the Engineering community.
• Create and Maintain documentation using industry-standard tooling — e.g., Confluence and various diagramming tools, such as Draw.io, Gliffy, Lucid, etc.
• Ensure that solutions remain compliant, covering such aspects as privacy (GDPR), financial (AML/CTF) and wagering regulation.

• Demonstrable experience in the design and delivery of complex, distributed systems. This includes microservices and event-driven architectures.
• Experience in data modelling for a variety of persistence paradigms (relational, K-V, graph, etc.).
• Hands-on experience with the following technologies: Postgres, Apache Kafka, Kubernetes.
• An engineering background with demonstrable/verifiable expertise in one or more contemporary programming languages; e.g., Java, .NET, Python, JS/TypeScript, Go, Rust, etc.
• Ability to actively liaise with business and technical stakeholders across the business.
• People focus, as this is very much a team sport.

NOTE: This is a hands-on role with a particular focus on architecture and design, requiring close collaboration with several highly experienced engineering teams. You'll be responsible for setting architectural direction and advising seasoned practitioners. As such, we are not looking for "enterprise" architects at this stage.

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and evaluate each candidate based on merit, regardless of personal characteristics as the age, gender, origin, religion, sexual orientation, neurodiversity or disability.
