Integration & Data Architect
Location:
City of London, England, United Kingdom
The Technical, Integration & Data Architect will serve as the single technical authority evaluating shortlisted SaaS ERP platforms. The role will assess solution architecture, systems integration, security alignment, and data migration feasibility, ensuring reliable integration with the existing enterprise landscape, compliance with security and data‑sovereignty requirements, and safe, auditable migration of financial data from legacy systems.
Responsibilities- Evaluate core technical architecture of shortlisted ERP platforms, including cloud‑native design, SaaS operating model, extensibility, configuration boundaries, scalability, resilience, and availability.
- Assess alignment with enterprise architecture principles and cloud security best practices.
- Identify architectural constraints, assumptions, and long‑term risks.
- Evaluate maturity and suitability of APIs (REST, event‑driven, bulk interfaces), ETL and data‑integration tooling, and middleware or iPaaS options.
- Define and evaluate integration proofs of capability for key interfaces: exchange of financial journals, patterns for near‑real‑time vs batch, error handling, retries, reconciliation, monitoring, and operational support.
- Assess alignment with security & compliance expectations: SSO, role‑based access, least privilege, encryption, key management, platform controls, logging, monitoring, auditability.
- Confirm data‑residency and data‑sovereignty compliance, and identify risks and mitigations.
- Assess feasibility of migrating financial data (opening balances, historical transactions, reference and master data).
- Review migration approaches: data mapping, transformation, validation, reconciliation, cutover strategy, rollback plan, and platform support.
- Define objectives and success criteria for integration and data proofs.
- Evaluate vendor submissions against technical realism, operational robustness, prior use evidence, and challenge unsupported assertions.
- Score candidate solutions against agreed criteria.
- Document assumptions, exclusions, dependencies, risks.
- Provide input into overall solution scoring and recommendation, and contribute to the System Selection Report with defensible technical rationale.
- Technical architecture assessment inputs and scored evaluation matrices.
- Defined integration proof and data proof criteria.
- Assessment of integration feasibility and risks.
- Data migration feasibility assessment and risk log.
- Contributions to the final System Selection Report.
