• Lead client discovery and pursuits by running visioning workshops, assessing current state, mapping business goals to technical roadmaps, and designing innovative, scalable solutions.
• Provide architectural oversight and guidance across projects, ensuring best-in-class technical quality and scalability.
• Mentor and coach regional architects, fostering a culture of technical excellence and knowledge sharing.
• Support incident response and translate escalations into long-term, sustainable improvements.
• Execute strategic initiatives that strengthen Altudo’s architectural capability, including future-facing frameworks, AI-driven accelerators, and platform standardization.
• Partner with cross-functional leaders to influence technology roadmaps, optimize solution design, and drive customer success

Who you are:

• A seasoned architect with 10+ years of experience in enterprise architecture, solution design, and modern digital platforms.
• Proficient in Cloud & DevOps, microservices, composable DXP architectures, headless CMS, and AI/automation-led transformation.
• Hands-on in driving complex integrations while maintaining a strategic view.
• Strong expertise in modern CMS platforms such as Sitecore, Contentful, Optimizely, Content stack, and others.
• Skilled at bridging technical problem-solving with architectural leadership.
• Experienced in incident management and governance, with the ability to resolve challenges swiftly and implement sustainable fixes.
• A mentor and influencer who empowers and uplifts regional architecture teams.
• Highly collaborative, with strong interpersonal skills to engage effectively across geographies, business functions, and client organizations.

What’s in it for you?

• Opportunity to lead architectural strategy in one of the fastest-growing digital consulting firms, directly shaping global delivery standards.
• Work alongside the Chief Architect and senior leadership, influencing technology decisions at scale.
• Exposure to cutting-edge AI-driven transformation projects with global enterprises.
