Technical Architect/ Principal Consultant – Consulting
Location: Sydney / Melbourne
Experience: Consulting experience strongly preferred
Domain: Banking / Wealth Management / Financial Services
Role Overview
We are looking for an experienced Technical Architect with strong consulting experience to work across complex technology transformation initiatives. The ideal candidate will combine deep technology expertise, structured problem-solving, and strong stakeholder communication, with the ability to operate effectively across business, engineering, architecture, product, and platform teams.
This role requires someone who can understand a complex technical landscape, translate business requirements into practical architecture solutions, and provide clear technical direction while balancing business outcomes, technology strategy, scalability, security, and delivery considerations.
Experience within Banking, Wealth Management or broader Financial Services, along with a good understanding of AI and Generative AI, will be highly regarded.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the definition and development of solution and technical architecture for complex transformation initiatives.
- Assess existing technology landscapes, identify architectural gaps, dependencies, risks, and opportunities, and recommend pragmatic target-state solutions.
- Translate business requirements and strategic objectives into scalable, secure and maintainable technical architecture.
- Work closely with business stakeholders, enterprise architects, solution architects, engineering teams, platform/product teams and delivery leadership.
- Develop architecture artefacts including current-state and target-state architectures, solution designs, integration patterns, architecture roadmaps, decision records and technical recommendations.
- Provide technical guidance throughout the delivery lifecycle and ensure solutions remain aligned with enterprise architecture principles and technology strategy.
- Facilitate architecture workshops and communicate complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Evaluate technology options and provide structured recommendations based on factors such as business value, scalability, integration, security, maintainability, cost and delivery risk.
- Identify opportunities to use AI and Generative AI within solution architecture, including how AI can accelerate architecture analysis, design and documentation.
- Support consulting engagements by contributing to problem definition, options analysis, technology strategy, solution recommendations and executive-level presentations.
- Work effectively in ambiguous environments where requirements may evolve and multiple stakeholders have competing priorities.
Required Skills & Experience
- Strong experience as a Technical Architect, Solution Architect or Technology Consultant within complex enterprise environments.
- Demonstrated technology consulting experience, ideally working across multiple clients, programs or transformation initiatives.
- Strong understanding of modern enterprise technology landscapes, architecture principles and solution design.
- Proven ability to analyse complex technology environments in a structured and methodical manner.
- Experience translating business requirements into clear technical and architectural solutions.
- Strong understanding of application, integration, API, cloud, data and platform architecture.
- Ability to work across architecture and engineering teams and challenge technical decisions constructively.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to quickly understand new technologies and business domains.
- Excellent stakeholder management, workshop facilitation and presentation skills.
- Ability to communicate architecture concepts effectively with engineers, architects, business leaders and senior executives.
- Strong experience developing architecture documentation and communicating both high-level architecture strategy and detailed solution considerations.
AI & Emerging Technology The successful candidate should have a practical understanding of:
- Artificial Intelligence and Generative AI
- AI-enabled enterprise solutions and architecture patterns
- How AI capabilities can be integrated into existing enterprise platforms
- Using AI to support architecture discovery, analysis, documentation and solution development
- Key considerations around security, data, governance, integration and responsible AI adoption
Deep AI engineering experience is not mandatory,
but the architect should be able to confidently discuss where AI adds value, how it fits within the broader architecture, and the considerations required to implement it responsibly.
Banking / Wealth Management Experience
Exposure to Banking, Wealth Management, Financial Services or regulated enterprise environments would be advantageous, particularly experience working with:
- Digital banking or wealth platforms
- Customer and adviser-facing technology
- Data and integration ecosystems
- Legacy-modernisation programs
- Regulatory and compliance-driven technology environments
- Large-scale technology transformation programs
Consulting Capabilities
As this is a consulting-oriented position, we are particularly interested in candidates who can:
- Quickly understand a client's business and technology landscape.
- Bring structure to ambiguous or complex technology problems.
- Challenge assumptions and provide independent recommendations.
- Communicate effectively with senior business and technology stakeholders.
- Facilitate workshops and drive architecture decisions.
- Present options with clear benefits, risks, dependencies and trade-offs.
- Balance strategic architecture thinking with pragmatic delivery requirements.
- Build trusted relationships across client, engineering and delivery teams.
Ideal Profile The ideal candidate is not purely a hands-on technical architect. We are looking for someone who can bridge business strategy and technology execution, bringing together strong architecture capability, consulting mindset, structured thinking and stakeholder influence.
They should be comfortable moving between executive-level discussions, architecture workshops and detailed conversations with engineering teams, while maintaining a clear focus on business outcomes.
What Would Make a Candidate Stand Out
- Strong technology consulting background
- Banking or Wealth Management domain experience
- Enterprise-scale architecture experience
- Cloud and modernisation expertise, particularly with platforms such as Microsoft Azure, AWS or Google Cloud
- Integration and API architecture experience
- Practical exposure to AI / Generative AI architecture
- Experience working on large transformation programs
- Strong executive communication and architecture workshop facilitation skills
- Ability to operate effectively across both strategy and delivery
We are looking for a consulting-oriented Technical Architect who combines technology depth with structured thinking and strong stakeholder communication. The person should be capable of navigating complex enterprise technology landscapes, translating business requirements into pragmatic architecture solutions, and working seamlessly across business, engineering, architecture and platform teams. Banking/wealth experience and a practical understanding of AI would significantly strengthen the profile.
