CSC is seeking a Senior Enterprise Architect to help shape and evolve a coherent enterprise and hybrid cloud architecture that supports the strategic goals of Enterprise Technology (ET). 

ET provides global platforms and infrastructure to business-unit-oriented digital product teams and is undergoing a significant transformation toward a full self-service, hybrid, multi-cloud ecosystem. This transformation includes infrastructure-as-code platforms, self-service IaaS- and PaaS-like products, and modern cloud-ready, container-based applications. The goal is to organize, optimize, and productize ET services to better serve CSC's business partners. 

As a Senior Enterprise Architect, you will work within an integrated Architecture, Engineering, and Product team that directly supports the CIO and ET's executive leadership. You will play a leading role in defining enterprise and hybrid cloud architecture, guiding its evolution, and ensuring that platforms, standards, and guardrails enable teams to deliver securely, reliably, and at scale. 

This role is enterprise- and platform-focused. Success is achieved through architecture, governance, mentorship, and influence rather than direct ownership of day-to-day delivery execution. 

Some of the things that you'll be doing: 

Leadership & Strategy 

Define, guide, and evolve ET's enterprise and hybrid cloud architecture, including reference architectures and target-state roadmaps 

Architect and guide the development, implementation, and ongoing improvement of private, hybrid, and multi-cloud platforms 

Develop and implement hybrid cloud strategies that enable ET's transformation and support CSC's long-term business objectives 

Establish architectural guardrails, standards, and governance that enable teams to move faster while remaining secure and compliant 

Mentor architects, cloud engineers, and technologists, helping build future-ready skills and roles 

Collaboration & Enablement 

Partner closely with Enterprise Architecture, Cloud, Data, and Solution Architects, as well as ET Engineering Leads and BU Application Development Leads 

Lead cross-functional collaboration in the design and evolution of enterprise platforms, systems, products, and services 

Support executive and senior leadership decision-making through architectural insight, trade-off analysis, and recommendations 

Build trusted relationships across ET leadership, CSC, and its business units 

Hybrid Cloud Architecture & Governance 

Perform a key leadership role in hybrid cloud architecture, including private and public cloud design, workload assessments, and platform evolution 

Identify, evaluate, and select cloud services and technologies based on business requirements, constraints, and architectural fit 

Define and enforce best practices for hybrid cloud deployments, including security, resiliency, performance optimization, and cost management 

Ensure compliance with security, risk, and governance standards across private and public cloud environments 

Lead the design and integration of Nutanix-based private cloud environments with public cloud platforms 

Evaluate and recommend cloud-native services from Azure, AWS, and GCP to complement private cloud capabilities 

Architecture Practice & Delivery Support 

Develop and maintain enterprise and hybrid cloud roadmaps aligned with ET and CSC strategy 

Provide architectural consulting, guidance, and direction to executives, systems analysts, cloud engineers, and delivery teams 

Document and maintain in-depth knowledge of ET's existing private, hybrid, and public cloud architectures 

Set architectural vision, gather requirements, evaluate vendors and technologies, gain business consensus, and contribute to delivery of scalable solutions 

Communicate architectural vision, decisions, and findings clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences 

Develop and communicate investment plans for private and hybrid cloud infrastructure, including capacity planning and cost optimization opportunities 

What Technical skills, experience, and qualifications do you need?

Proven experience as a Senior or Enterprise Architect in complex organizations 

Deep experience with hybrid and multi-cloud architectures, preferably Azure-centric 

Strong knowledge of hybrid cloud architecture and design principles 

Hands-on experience with Nutanix private cloud platforms, including design, deployment, and integration 

Experience with public cloud platforms such as Microsoft Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud Platform, including hybrid connectivity and workload migration 

Strong understanding of non-functional requirements including security, resiliency, availability, observability, performance, and FinOps 

Experience enabling self-service platforms and internal developer experiences 

Ability to translate business strategy into architectural direction, roadmaps, team objectives, and actionable outcomes 

Strong collaboration skills and the ability to influence across organizational boundaries without direct authority 

Experience designing and evolving complex, distributed systems 

Excellent analytical, creative problem-solving, and decision-making skills 

Ability to coach and mentor on technical skills, architectural thinking, and critical reasoning 

Excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills 

Principle-based and value-driven approach to architecture and technology decisions 

Practical experience applying enterprise architecture frameworks such as TOGAF, SABSA, or similar 

Experience with enterprise architecture tools; ABACUS preferred 

Familiarity with design thinking, cloud-oriented architecture, infrastructure architecture, resilience and scale-out patterns, data management, and product development
