- Digital Experience Platforms Role Context We are looking for a Senior Technical Architect to provide technical leadership on an established, large-scale enterprise digital program (a running account with multi-year continuity).

The right person is equally comfortable in an architecture review, an estimation workshop, and a client-facing solution conversation, and can hold the technical line on a mature codebase while continuously modernizing it. The role is not tied to a single account — you will be expected to bring architecture leadership across engagements as needs evolve. What You'll Own Architecture &

Establish and maintain architecture standards, design principles, and governance frameworks. Lead technical discovery, solution roadmaps, and modernization planning. CMS &
- Digital Experience Platforms Architect enterprise CMS/DXP solutions, including headless and hybrid patterns. Define content modeling, personalization, localization, workflow, and publishing strategies. Lead CMS migrations, upgrades, and modernization programs. Integrate the CMS with CRM, CDP, DAM, marketing automation, and analytics platforms.
