We are looking for a Solution Architect with 5+ years of architectural experience, strong leadership capabilities and fluent English, who is ready to fully dedicate to solution architecture ownership in complex, business-critical environments.

This role sits at the intersection of business strategy, enterprise architecture and AI-enabled solutions.

We are explicitly looking for generalist architects - individuals capable of designing holistic solutions across multiple IT domains - rather than narrow, highly technical or implementation-focused data specialists.

You will work on strategic initiatives for a global leader in the maritime transport industry.

What you will be responsible for:

• Own solution architecture from problem framing to target design, ensuring alignment with business outcomes and enterprise strategy.
• Partner with senior business and IT stakeholders to challenge requirements, clarify objectives and co-create optimal solutions.
• Design, document and defend end-to-end solution architectures (TADs), including key decisions, trade-offs and risks.
• Define architectures that are scalable, resilient, secure and future-ready, aligned with technology roadmaps and standards.
• Lead architecture topics across multiple domains (applications, integrations, data, platforms, AI use cases).
• Act as an architectural leader and mentor, setting direction and influencing teams without line management.
• Ensure strong handover to delivery teams and support implementation at an architectural level (without hands-on coding).
• Drive architectural governance, quality and consistency across initiatives.
• Identify opportunities to embed AI, automation and intelligent decisioning within enterprise solutions.
• Contribute to the evolution of architecture practices, frameworks, tooling and ways of working.

Required experience & mindset

• Proven experience as Solution Architect / Lead Architect / Enterprise Architect in complex, multi-system environments.
• Ability to operate at a strategic and conceptual level, not limited to one technology or domain.
• Strong understanding of modern data architectures, including medallion architecture (Bronze / Silver / Gold) from a design and governance perspective.
• Experience designing event-driven architectures, with architectural exposure to Kafka in enterprise-scale ecosystems.
• Solid understanding of system integration patterns (APIs, events, workflows, orchestration).
• Hands-off but delivery-aware: able to guide teams without performing operational or development tasks.
• Demonstrated leadership behaviors: ownership, decision-making, influence without authority.
• High business acumen and excellent communication skills.
• Good understanding of AI concepts and enterprise AI adoption (e.g. AI-enabled platforms, automation, data-driven intelligence).
• English at minimum B2 level.

Nice to have

• Experience designing solutions in public cloud environments (AWS, Azure or GCP).
• Familiarity with enterprise integration and messaging platforms.
• Exposure to architecture governance models and frameworks.
• Experience working in large, global, matrix organizations.
• Willingness to travel occasionally (1-2 trips per year to Marseille).
• French language.

What's in it for you?

• Courses and certifications (e.g., Google Cloud, AWS, ITIL)
• Wellbeing programs & work-life balance - integration and passion-sharing events
• Private medical and dental care
• Family-friendly offices: Supporting working parents
• Benefits platform - shopping, cinema, sport, etc.
• Co-funding of sport activities (e.g., Multisport & OK system cards, b-active program)
• Conferences and expert communities
• Gift packages for special occasions: Easter, Christmas, Children’s Day
• Appreciation for seniority: additional days off, Atos Jubilee gifts
• Charity and eco initiatives
• Hybrid working mode (max. 2 times per month in the office, based on your location)
