We’re looking for an exceptional Senior Spatial Architect to lead the architecture, governance and delivery assurance of enterprise-scale geospatial platforms across utilities, infrastructure, government and asset-intensive industries.

This is a senior technical leadership role at the intersection of enterprise architecture, cloud transformation and spatial technology. You’ll be the trusted technical authority for complex GIS transformation programs — shaping strategy, modernising platforms and advising executive stakeholders.

What You’ll Do

Define enterprise GIS strategies, target architectures and transformation roadmaps
Lead end-to-end spatial architecture across applications, data, integration, cloud, security and operations
Act as Design Authority across major GIS and digital transformation programs
Shape cloud-hosted GIS platforms, including scalability, resilience, security and DR
Lead spatial data architecture, migration, governance and enterprise integration
Provide independent architecture assurance, risk management and technical governance
Advise executives and senior stakeholders on technology strategy and investment
Mentor architects, consultants and technical teams while strengthening spatial capability

What We’re Looking For

10+ years’ experience in GIS/spatial architecture, enterprise architecture or senior spatial technology leadership
Australian Citizens only
Proven delivery of large-scale GIS transformation or modernisation programs
Deep expertise across enterprise GIS, spatial data and integration architecture
Strong cloud architecture experience across AWS and/or Azure
Experience with architecture governance, design assurance and executive engagement
Experience leading multidisciplinary teams in complex delivery environments

Highly desirable: experience across utilities, energy, water, transport, mining or other asset-intensive industries, with exposure to SAP/Maximo/EAM, mobility, analytics, large-scale data migration and consulting environments.

Technical landscape

Ideally, you’ll have strong experience across technologies such as ArcGIS Enterprise/Online/Pro, Utility Network, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle, FME, REST APIs, AWS/Azure, CI/CD and Infrastructure as Code.

Why this role?

This is an opportunity to influence some of Australia’s most significant spatial and infrastructure transformation programs — shaping enterprise architecture, technology strategy and business outcomes at scale.
