Overview



WELCOME TO SITA

At SITA, we keep airports moving, airlines flying smoothly, and borders open. Our technology and communication innovations power the success of the global air travel industry.

You'll find us in 95% of international airports, working closely with over 2,500 transportation and government clients. Each partnership brings unique challenges, and we thrive on delivering fresh solutions and cutting-edge tech to keep operations running like clockwork. We don't just move the world forward—we're proud to be recognized as a Great Place to Work by our employees and certified in most of our growing locations. Here, we feel empowered, supported, and inspired to grow.

Are you ready to love your job?

The adventure begins right here, with you, at SITA.

ABOUT THE ROLE AND TEAM

This role sits within SITA's Master Systems Integration (MSI) Centre of Excellence, supporting airport projects globally at the earliest stages of design and pre-sales.

You will act as a senior MSI expert and reference point, helping shape solutions, pitch more effectively, and influence how airport technology ecosystems are designed. While regional teams have their own architects, this role brings experience, structure, and guidance across markets.

This is not a back-office technical role. Success in this position depends on strong client presence, confidence in front of senior stakeholders, and the ability to clearly explain complex MSI concepts.


WHAT YOU'LL DO

* Support early-stage MSI architecture and pre-sales activities across airport projects.

* Act as a subject matter expert for MSI, guiding and coaching regional architects and teams.

* Shape and present integration concepts and architectural approaches to airport clients, constructors, and design partners.

* Support bids and proposals by providing credible, well-structured MSI input.

* Influence how airports think about technology integration during design and construction phases.

* Develop and share architectural frameworks, standards, and reference models across regions.

* Bring cross-regional insight and best practices into the MSI Centre of Excellence.


Qualifications



ABOUT YOUR SKILLS


Required

* 5+ years' experience in systems integration architecture, solution architecture, or similar roles.

* Proven experience in airport / aviation technology environments (mandatory).

* Background in MSI, complex systems integration, or large infrastructure programmes.

* Strong client-facing experience, including presentations and discussions with senior stakeholders.

* Ability to clearly communicate architectural concepts to technical and non-technical audiences.

* Bachelor's degree in Technology, Engineering, or Business.


Nice to have

* TOGAF or Enterprise Architecture certification.

* Experience in consulting or advisory roles.

* Exposure to bid support, early design phases, or technology assessments.
