JLR’s Information and Digital Technology team is a place where you can unleash your technical ability. Whether expertly supporting applications, managing digital products, architecting solutions, or securing our platforms, you’ll work alongside other tech experts to shape our digital landscape and provide a stable platform for our operations. Stay at the forefront of innovation, and use cutting-edge technology to reimagine the future of modern luxury – be a proud creator of the exceptional.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Do you like to take the high-level view? Are you curious and passionate about technology driving value realisation?
JLR has the ambition to deliver an unprecedented transformation in our businesses, rethinking the way we engage with customers, vendors and partners, and be a true creator of modern luxury vehicles and services, enhancing our customer and employee experiences, through global end-to-end solutions.
We have an excellent opportunity for an Enterprise Architect to become part of the Global Enterprise Architecture team. The individual will be responsible for creating the Enterprise Architecture, while partnering across domain portfolios.
Key Accountabilities & Responsibilities
1. Translate business strategy into high level technology components, in alignment with the technology strategy.
2. Provide guidance to product and platform teams to implement scalable, reliable, and secure platforms, as a composable architecture that stands the test of technology variability.
3. Maintain the enterprise 'helicopter view' of the strategic portfolio and assess the high-level architecture of all major investment initiatives.
4. Identify opportunities for reuse and highlight risks caused by unmanaged gaps, dependencies, and duplications.
5. Propose scenarios to remediate where needed and develop architecture principles and guardrails for future guidance.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED
1. Experience of successful delivery of large complex programmes and ability to communicate and demonstrate the value of the change to key stakeholders in both the business and technology functions.
2. Understanding of the vision and challenges of moving from a landscape of on-prem monoliths to a cloud-native architecture, composed of decoupled services leveraging a common data fabric.
3. Proven experience of legacy modernisation and decomposing of monoliths into microservice based architectures.
4. Experience of cloud native and 12 factor application design and knowledge and awareness of open-source and inner-source approaches.
5. Build consensus across a large and often diverse group of stakeholders, ensuring stakeholder interests are identified and addressed in the development of the strategic roadmaps.
Creating Modern Luxury requires a modern approach to work. At JLR, hybrid working is a voluntary, non-contractual arrangement providing employees more choice and flexibility around how, when and where they work. Some roles require more on-site work, but details of this can be discussed with the hiring manager during the interview stage.
We work hard to nurture a culture that is inclusive and welcoming to all. We understand candidates may require reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process. Please discuss these with your recruiter so we can accommodate your needs.
Applicants from all backgrounds are welcome. If you’re unsure that you meet the full criteria of a role – but you're interested in where it could take you – we still encourage you to apply. We believe in people's ability to grow and develop within their role – it’s what makes living the exceptional with soul possible.
JLR is committed to equal opportunity for all.
