Role overview of our Project Systems Architect This is a new role with significant responsibilities. We are seeking an experienced Project Systems Architect who will be a "key" colleague and responsible for the overarching design technical architecture and engineering solutions within Project Delivery. You will take a holistic view of the complete solution, ensuring that individual systems, subsystems and infrastructure components work together as an integrated whole.

You will establish and maintain technical governance, understand dependencies and interfaces, and ensure that the implications of subsystem design and performance are identified and addressed from the outset These are complex, real-world programmes in which requirements, constraints and circumstances can evolve throughout delivery. The Project System Architect must therefore be able to anticipate the consequences of change, assess technical and programme-level trade-offs, and ensure that decisions continue to protect overall system performance, resilience, cost and schedule.

A key aspect of the role is to provide technical direction, architectural governance and design authority across all engineering and technical disciplines working with engineers, ICP (In-Country Partner) and third party vendors to ensure all technical interaction is accounted for. The role will involve significant cross-functional and cross-departmental engagement to establish and maintain SRT's engineering reference architectures, technical standards, design principles and architectural governance.

This will require close collaboration with Systems Development, Product Management, Project Engineering, Delivery and Support to ensure that architectural decisions are consistently applied throughout the product and project lifecycle. The role will also act as a senior technical authority for cross-disciplinary engineering decisions, providing assurance and sign-off where required and ensuring that solutions are technically robust, maintainable, scalable and capable of being deployed consistently across SRT's programmes and products.

The role of Project Systems Architect is based from our Bristol office with flexibility for Hybrid working. This role will also require occasional overseas travel as required by the business Responsibilities
