Burns & McDonnell
Description
Description
At 1898 & Co., part of Burns & McDonnell, our Enterprise Systems Integration (ESI) team helps clients modernize, integrate, and secure critical Operational Technology (OT) environments across utilities, industrial, and infrastructure sectors. We partner with organizations to design resilient, scalable, and secure architectures that support reliable operations, digital modernization, and the convergence of OT and IT systems.
With deep domain expertise and a consulting-led approach, our teams deliver solutions spanning control systems, industrial networking, cybersecurity, data integration, and enterprise connectivity. As part of Burns & McDonnell, we combine technical depth, industry experience, and a collaborative culture to help clients navigate complex operational challenges and deliver lasting impact.
We are seeking a Senior Solution Architect to join our Enterprise Systems Integration practice, focused on Operational Technology solutions. In this role, you will serve as a trusted technical advisor to client leadership, guiding strategic investment decisions, shaping OT and integration roadmaps, and leading the architecture of complex, enterprise-scale solutions.
You will play a critical leadership role in aligning operational needs, cybersecurity requirements, and long-term business objectives with modern OT architectures. This position emphasizes solution design, technical authority, and client engagement rather than day-to-day project management.
What You'll Do
Lead the design, architecture, and implementation of complex OT integration solutions spanning control systems, SCADA, historians, OT networks, edge devices, and enterprise-connected platforms.
Define end-to-end solution architectures that address functional, technical, cybersecurity, integration, network, reliability, and operational requirements.
Develop and guide OT architecture roadmaps supporting digital modernization, system upgrades, and IT/OT convergence initiatives.
Partner with clients to understand operational challenges and translate business needs into secure, scalable, and supportable technical solutions.
Provide technical leadership across pursuits and delivery efforts, ensuring architectural integrity from concept through implementation.
Support business development by contributing to solution strategy, technical scoping, architecture definition, and proposal development.
Present solution architectures, trade-offs, and recommendations to technical and executive client stakeholders.
Collaborate with project managers, engineers, developers, and cybersecurity specialists to guide execution and resolve complex technical challenges.
Review and validate technical designs and deliverables to ensure alignment with approved architectures and industry best practices.
Mentor and develop technical team members, fostering growth, architectural rigor, and technical excellence.
Contribute to the development of internal standards, reference architectures, and reusable solution patterns across the ESI practice.
Ensure solutions align with OT cybersecurity best practices, governance standards, and organizational risk tolerance.
Perform other duties as assigned.
Preferred Experience and Skills
Experience designing and integrating Operational Technology systems within utility, industrial, or critical infrastructure environments.
Strong understanding of OT platforms and technologies such as ADMS, DERMS, DCS, EMS, OMS, SCADA, historians, and industrial networks.
Strong understanding of the enabling networks for critical infrastructure including local and wide area networks utilizing industry standard fiber and wireless solutions.
Knowledge of electric system operations for distribution and or generation environments.
Experience with OT cybersecurity concepts including network segmentation, defense-in-depth, secure remote access, and risk management.
Proven ability to partner with clients to define requirements and design tailored solutions aligned with organizational and operational goals.
Experience leading solution workshops, architecture reviews, and executive-level technical discussions.
Demonstrated ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams including engineers, developers, cybersecurity specialists, and business leaders.
Strong facilitation, communication, and presentation skills with the ability to convey complex technical concepts clearly.
Experience contributing to thought leadership, solution development, or internal capability building within a consulting environment.
Interest in supporting business development through pursuits, proposals, and client engagement activities.
Qualifications
Bachelor Degree in Engineering, Business, Computer Science, Information Technology, or a closely related field from an accredited program and 7 years of relevant experience Required
Architecture and integration skills, including areas such as data architecture, cloud architecture, middleware, communications, or other architectural methods and practices.
Understanding of current and emerging associated technologies to manage and deliver quality enterprise solutions in both Information Technology (IT) and Operations Technology (OT) domains.
Experience with a variety of project execution methodologies.
Experience with leading-edge application(s), operations technology and solutions utilizing various industry standard tools.
Experience developing executive-level technology assessments, roadmap strategies focusing on enterprise and/or operation technologies.
Strong ability to influence or lead project execution.
