Who You'll Work With

You will be reporting to Ben Connolly, BCG CTO, and work in the central Enterprise Architecture team. This is an individual contributor role with an expectation of strongly influencing architects working across the Integration and GenAI domains. This role owns enterprise architecture for the integration (contract) layer and the enterprise GenAI platform; it partners closely with, but does not own, the architecture for Identity, Network, Devices and Hosting, which sit with other Enterprise Architecture leads.

BCG is looking for a Senior Director level Enterprise Architect to pioneer the modernisation of our integration and GenAI architecture, giving BCGers, clients and AI agents governed, contract-based access to our systems and data, 24x7, 365 days of the year.

The heart of this role is to define the architecture of the integration layer, the contracts, gateways and access models that connect applications, services and AI agents to our systems, and the GenAI platform that sits on top of it. You will be an expert in API and event-driven integration patterns, agent-to-tool protocols, and the governance of foundation models and AI agents in an enterprise setting. You will have considerable experience designing scaled, secure, governed platforms for a global company.

You’ll bring teams together to leverage the scale of BCG by defining a shared, contract-first integration architecture and the guardrails that let AI agents operate safely within it. Driving a modern, enterprise-grade approach to API and agent governance, you’ll play a leading role in the transformation of BCG IT.
