IDO Solution Architect

Manager/Solution Architect

Deloitte's Sourcing and Procurement practice helps clients transform their Strategic Sourcing & Procurement functions into strategic partners for their businesses.

We are differentiated by our executable mindset, focus, and strategy capabilities.

We excel at strategies that are delivered through a combination of strong category experience, Sourcing and Procurement operating model expertise, broad-based knowledge and management skills, and geographical reach around the world.

We advise companies on potential areas of savings relating direct Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) and enable digital transformation goals of Strategic Sourcing & Procurement functions through technology (e.g., Coupa, Ariba, etc.) assessments, selection, implementation, and continuous operations.

Work you'll do

You will serve as the platform-agnostic industrial data architecture authority, leading foundation advisory and implementation workstreams across operational technology (OT), edge, and enterprise environments.

You will define the OT-up architecture, including Unified Namespace (UNS) design, ISA-95 asset modeling, contextualization strategy, and integration topology across historian systems, edge platforms, and enterprise systems.

You will also act as the technical voice in vice president- and director-level client conversations, translating plant-floor realities into practical architecture decisions.

In this role, you will partner closely with delivery leadership, handing off the cloud data platform layer to the Delivery Manager while continuing to guide the industrial data architecture.

On Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) engagements, you will work with the Cognite Platform Architect to align architecture decisions with platform capabilities.

This role is designed for someone with a controls or automation background who has moved into data architecture, or an OT integration lead from a vendor or systems integrator environment.

You should be comfortable walking a plant floor, reading a piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID), and translating between operations and IT, with deep familiarity in at least two of the following: ISA-95/ISA-88 standards, OPC UA/UNS, historian systems, or edge platforms.
