About the role
- Design, deliver, and manage complete enterprise architecture solutions, including capability‑based roadmaps, target‑state architectures, reference architectures, and governance
- Demonstrate leadership across the architect community with a strong focus on business outcomes and pragmatic execution
- Translate business outcomes (regulatory compliance, product quality, cycle‑time reduction, supply reliability, data integrity, revenue protection) into non‑functional, reliability, security, and observability architectural requirements
- Operate as a stream lead at CIO/CTO level for internal or external clients; lead Capgemini architecture execution related to market development and service delivery excellence
- Own enterprise architecture strategy and roadmap for Life Sciences ecosystems, aligned to business priorities, growth plans, and operational realities (regulated delivery, validation expectations, scalability, and resilience)
- Architect and guide platforms and integrations across package‑based Life Sciences systems and custom solutions, including ERP, LIMS, MES, QMS, CTMS, CRM, safety, regulatory content systems, manufacturing and supply platforms
- Drive configuration‑over‑customization decisions for packaged solutions, protecting upgrade paths, validation posture, and long‑term sustainability
- Design integration and data patterns between Life Sciences platforms, enterprise services, and data layers, including API‑first, event‑driven architectures, messaging, MDM, identity, and observability
- Guide cloud‑native and hybrid architectures, including microservices and event‑driven patterns, to support scalable digital, data, and AI‑enabled capabilities
- Partner with Data, AI, and Analytics teams to architect governed data flows across R&D, clinical, manufacturing, supply, and commercial domains; enable analytics, AI/ML, and GenAI use cases with appropriate controls
- Establish service reliability principles (availability, latency, scalability, resiliency) aligned to Life Sciences operational realities such as batch processing, regulatory submissions, global manufacturing, and supply variability
- Evaluate emerging technologies (AI/GenAI, automation, advanced analytics, intelligent document processing) for fit, feasibility, risk, and operational value in regulated Life Sciences environments
- Act as a trusted advisor to CIO/CTO leaders, product owners, and business executives; translate architecture decisions into business outcomes, risks, and trade‑offs
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or related field (or equivalent experience)
- 12+ years of experience in enterprise architecture, solution architecture, or technology leadership, ideally within Life Sciences or other regulated, package-centric environments
- Demonstrated experience architecting package-based solutions and hybrid landscapes (e.g., ERP, clinical, quality, manufacturing, commercial platforms)
- Strong knowledge of cloud platforms (Azure/AWS/GCP), integration architectures, APIs, microservices, event-driven patterns, and data architecture
- Experience establishing enterprise architecture governance, standards, and roadmaps; ability to influence adoption across engineering, product, and business teams
- Proven leadership of architecture teams or cross-functional technical initiatives across multiple workstreams
- Hands-on experience using AI-enabled tools (e.g., Copilot-class assistants, AI-assisted design and analysis) to accelerate architecture definition and delivery
- Excellent communication and executive stakeholder management skills, with the ability to connect architecture decisions to measurable business outcomes
- Strong ability to influence decision-makers and drive execution in complex, matrixed organizations.
