About the role

We are hiringan Enterprise Architect at a Manager / Senior Manager level (no people management) to define and drive implementation of the long range technology direction for Nscale, build the architecture, governance, and programme structures that will carry the company into public company readiness. You will own the enterprise architecture frameworks, drive the transformation roadmap, and align systems, data, security, and processes with the company's operating model to enable it to achieve its goals. This role is both strategic and hands-on. As Nscale continues its rapid growth through both organic expansion and strategic acquisitions, you will play a critical role in M&A integration architecture - evaluating target companies' technology estates, defining integration strategies, and ensuring acquired systems align with Nscale's architectural principles.

In this practical architecture role, you will work across Infrastructure, Security, BizOps, Finance, and IT to set standards, reduce complexity, and guide major initiatives like ERP evolution, data platform growth, and data integration programme, from inception to delivery and onboarding. With a global footprint and rapidly expanding operations, you will establish the architecture and transformation engine that ensures Nscale scales with clarity, control, and speed.
