The Senior IT/OT Solution Architect is a strategic technical leader responsible for defining, designing, and governing complex, end-to-end solutions that securely and reliably connect operational technology (OT) environments with enterprise IT systems, with a strong emphasis on IT infrastructure, virtualization, and OT cybersecurity
.

• Lead the definition and continuous improvement of reference architectures, patterns, and standards that span IT and OT environments (e.g., plant floor networks, DMZs, data center, and cloud).
• Architect complex, end-to-end solutions that integrate OT systems (SCADA, DCS, PLCs, HMIs, historians, edge devices) with IT systems (enterprise applications, cloud platforms, data analytics, and security tooling), with a particular focus on Emerson DeltaV environments and their integration into broader IT architectures.
• Own solution blueprints, logical/physical diagrams, and data flows for major programs, ensuring traceability back to business and security requirements.
• Architect and standardize virtualized environments (e.g., VMware, Hyper‑V, Nutanix) to host OT and supporting IT workloads, including high‑availability, disaster recovery, and lifecycle management strategies.
• IT/OT Integration & Connectivity
  • Define and govern secure connectivity patterns between industrial assets, on‑prem infrastructure, and cloud services using industry best practices (e.g., ISA/IEC 62443, Purdue Model).
  • Select and design appropriate integration mechanisms (OPC UA, MQTT, APIs, middleware, data brokers) and ensure they scale across multiple sites and programs.
  • Set standards for edge compute, gateways, and data acquisition architectures that support IIoT, advanced analytics, and future digital initiatives.
• OT Cybersecurity & Compliance
  • Champion OT cybersecurity by design in all IT/OT solutions, including network segmentation, identity and access management, secure remote access, backup/restore, and vulnerability/patch management for both IT and OT assets.
  • Partner with security, risk, and compliance leaders to interpret frameworks (e.g., ISA/IEC 62443, NIST CSF) into practical architectures and control sets for Stellix and its customers.
  • Guide the design and deployment of OT security controls such as IC/OT network monitoring, anomaly detection, asset discovery, and security logging/monitoring integrations.
  • Play a key role in security assessments, architecture risk reviews, and incident response planning and post‑incident improvement activities related to OT and industrial environments.
• Technical Leadership & Delivery Support
  • Act as the senior technical authority on complex projects and programs, guiding solution options, tradeoffs, and decisions.
  • Work closely with project managers, engineers, and operations teams to translate business requirements into clear technical designs, implementation plans, and estimates.
  • Provide hands‑on architectural oversight throughout the lifecycle (design, build, test, deploy, and transition), de‑risking delivery and ensuring adherence to standards.
  • Review and approve critical technical deliverables (e.g., high/low‑level designs, security designs, test plans, as‑built documentation).
  • Mentor and coach less‑experienced architects and engineers, helping develop IT/OT and OT cyber skills across the team.
• Stakeholder Engagement, Sales Support & Consulting
  • Partner with operations, engineering, IT, and security leadership to understand strategic objectives and shape the IT/OT roadmap.
  • Support sales and business development activities as the senior technical lead: shaping solution strategies, developing architectures for key pursuits, contributing to proposals/RFP responses, and delivering customer presentations, demos, and technical workshops.
  • Lead technical workshops, discovery sessions, and…
