About DataVita
DataVita is a next-generation cloud and infrastructure company operating from Tier III-certified data centres in Scotland. We work at the bleeding edge of AI adoption, automation, and how these technologies can be integrated into complex legacy environments to deliver genuine transformation.
DataVita is the fastest growing technology company in Scotland, with plans to deploy and invest over £2 billion in the coming years. You would be joining at a relatively early stage of that trajectory. For the right person, this is a chance to build something from the ground up inside a business that is scaling fast.
About the Role
We are looking for an experienced Enterprise Architect to own the architectural relationship between DataVita and one of our largest and most strategically important public sector customers.
This is a senior, customer-facing role dedicated to the architecture and technical leadership of the customer’s environment. The customer runs a largely dedicated infrastructure estate, with a number of managed services hosted on DataVita’s platforms. You will take the environment on, stabilise and improve it, resolve inherited issues, and lead its ongoing modernisation and transformation. On an enduring basis, you will act as the architectural bridge between the customer and DataVita, representing DataVita within the customer’s own governance, including their Joint Architecture Board, Change Advisory Board, Enterprise Design Authority, and SIAM and related assurance forums.
The role exists to hold both sides together. You will maintain a clear architectural view of the customer’s largely dedicated estate, ensure the managed services DataVita provides integrate cleanly with it, and translate DataVita’s standards, constraints, and direction into terms the customer can govern against while representing the customer’s needs back into DataVita. You will be the point of architectural authority and continuity for the account, reducing late escalation and protecting both service quality and commercial outcomes.
This role is dedicated primarily to the customer’s account. You may contribute to other DataVita projects as required, particularly once you are established in the role and the account has moved into its business-as-usual phase.
You will work closely with the Lead Architect, the wider Architecture function, delivery and operations teams, and Sales, as well as senior technical and governance stakeholders within the customer organisation.
