IT Solutions Architect

Summary / Objective

At Emburse, you’ll not just imagine the future – you’ll build it. As a leader in travel and expense solutions, we are creating a future where technology drives business value and inspires extraordinary results.

As an IT Solutions Architect in our Center of Excellence, you’ll design the systems and patterns that power identity, automation, device management, and AI-enabled support. You’ll work closely with IT engineers, InfoSec, and business stakeholders to create solutions that are simple, secure, and built to scale.

What you’ll do

Design and document technical architecture across key IT systems : identity (Okta), endpoint management (Intune, Jamf), collaboration (Slack, GWS), and support tooling (Jira, OpenAI).

Create playbooks, system diagrams, and reusable patterns to drive clarity and consistency across the org.

Lead discovery, requirements gathering, and solution design for new tools, integrations, and platform enhancements.

Provide architectural guidance and guardrails to engineering teams — ensuring a scalable and secure implementation.

Evaluate vendors and third-party tools for technical fit, integration potential, and long-term supportability.

Partner with InfoSec and Compliance to ensure architecture aligns with privacy, risk, and regulatory goals.

Drive simplification and automation across IT workflows, especially in provisioning, access, and support delivery.

Serve as a subject matter expert and internal consultant for major cross functional IT projects.
