Presentation du poste

Le poste de Directeur de l'architecture d'entreprise et des intégrations au sein de l'International Rescue Committee (IRC) est un rôle clé de gouvernance technique et de management. Localisé au Kenya, au Royaume-Uni ou aux États-Unis, ce poste s'inscrit dans une organisation humanitaire internationale majeure intervenant dans plus de 40 pays. Le titulaire aura la responsabilité de définir les normes et standards d'architecture et d'intégration pour l'ensemble du portefeuille d'applications métier, incluant D365, Workday, ServiceNow, Box et M365. Dans un environnement où les interventions humanitaires (WASH, protection, logistique, etc.) exigent une coordination et un suivi-évaluation efficaces, il devra harmoniser les pratiques entre les équipes, documenter les décisions et mettre en place des processus de gouvernance clairs, afin de garantir que les solutions restent configurables plutôt que développées sur mesure.

Sur le plan des missions, le directeur devra posséder et piloter l'architecture intégrée, définir les patrons d'intégration (API, middleware), superviser le développement d'applications personnalisées, et manager directement les équipes en charge de l'intégration, des applications customs, de Drupal et de la plateforme Azure. Il travaillera en étroite collaboration avec le responsable de l'IA et de l'ingénierie T4P, ainsi qu'avec les équipes de données, SIG et infrastructure. La fonction comprend également la gestion budgétaire, la gestion des talents et la contribution au recrutement. Enfin, le directeur devra établir des mécanismes de revue des décisions d'architecture et intégrer l'architecture d'entreprise dans les processus de proposition, de financement et d'approbation des projets.

Le profil recherché combine expérience technique et leadership : au moins 8 ans d'expérience en informatique ou applications d'entreprise, dont 3 ans en gestion d'équipe, une connaissance approfondie des systèmes ERP (D365), HCM (Workday), ITSM (ServiceNow) et des plateformes collaboratives, ainsi qu'une expertise en intégration et gestion d'API. Le candidat devra faire preuve de capacité à traduire des besoins métiers en solutions techniques claires, à faire respecter les standards, et à arbitrer entre développement sur mesure et configuration. Une expérience de gestion budgétaire est exigée. L'offre ne précise pas de type de contrat ni de durée, mais il s'agit probablement d'un poste permanent à temps plein. Les conditions de rémunération et d'avantages ne sont pas mentionnées, mais l'IRC offre généralement un environnement de travail international et une mission à fort impact humanitaire.

Background
The International Rescue Committee (IRC) responds to the world's worst humanitarian crises, helping to restore health, safety, education, economic wellbeing, and power to people devastated by conflict and disaster. Founded in 1933 at the call of Albert Einstein, the IRC is one of the world's largest international humanitarian non-governmental organizations (INGO), at work in more than 40 countries and 29 U.S. cities helping people to survive, reclaim control of their future and strengthen their communities. A force for humanity, IRC employees deliver lasting impact by restoring safety, dignity and hope to millions. If you're a solutions-driven, passionate change-maker, come join us in positively impacting the lives of millions of people world-wide for a better future.

Job Background / Overview

The IRC runs a broad portfolio of enterprise applications across more than 50 countries, including D365, Workday, ServiceNow, Box, and M365, and a range of custom and integrated systems. As that portfolio has grown, architecture and integration have been managed across several teams and platform owners. The organization is now putting one senior owner in charge of setting the patterns and standards that hold across platforms, so this work is clearly owned in one place.

The Director, Enterprise Architecture and Integration owns architecture and integration across the enterprise application portfolio. The role sets integration patterns and technical standards, owns the architecture decisions that span core platforms, and manages the teams whose work sits closest to integration and custom application development. It carries an architecture mandate alongside direct team management.

The role works closely with the Head of AI and T4P Engineering and with cross-functional partners across IT, including GIS and Infrastructure.

Major Responsibilities

Architecture and Standards (30%)

  • Own enterprise integration patterns and technical standards across the application portfolio, and set the architecture decisions that span core platforms (D365, Workday, ServiceNow, Box, M365 and related systems).
  • Establish and maintain standards for how applications are built, integrated, and supported, and hold delivery teams accountable to them.
  • Apply a configure-before-develop standard so custom engineering is the exception rather than the default, and provide architecture guidance on new solution requests and platform changes.
  • Document the integration and architecture boundaries that have historically been managed informally, so the knowledge is held by the organization rather than by individuals.

Integration and Custom Applications (25%)

  • Own the integration layer across the portfolio: patterns, tooling, and the standards that keep integrations maintainable and observable.
  • Set technical direction for custom application development, ensuring it follows the same architecture and standards as the rest of the portfolio.
  • Partner with platform owners to design integrations that fit the broader architecture rather than solving one system at a time.

Team Leadership and Operations (15%)

  • Lead and manage the teams closest to integration and custom application development, including the integration and custom apps team, the Drupal team, and the Azure platform (application hosting) engineers.
  • Set priorities, manage workload, and develop team leads and engineers.
  • Manage the team budget and track spend against plan.
  • Support the recruitment of technical staff as the team evolves.

Cross-Functional Coordination (15%)

  • Coordinate with the Head of AI and T4P Engineering on the architecture and integration boundaries between AI and engineering initiatives and the enterprise application portfolio.
  • Partner with the Enterprise Applications leadership team to align architecture decisions with portfolio priorities and roadmaps.
  • Coordinate with the data team, including its Director of Analytics, Architecture and Engineering, on data architecture and integration boundaries across the portfolio.
  • Coordinate with GIS and Infrastructure on shared platform boundaries, including Azure, to clarify roles and responsibilities across teams.
  • Work with the Director, AI Platforms and Digital Workplace on the boundaries between the digital workplace stack and the enterprise application portfolio.

Governance and Documentation (15%)

  • Maintain documentation of architecture decisions, integration patterns, and technical standards.
  • Ensure architecture and integration work aligns with organizational policies, data privacy requirements, and the IRC’s governance frameworks.
  • Surface architecture risk and technical debt plainly, and bring open questions forward rather than presenting closed plans.
  • Establish enterprise architecture into the organization's operations and governance: define architecture principles, set up a review process and decision rights for architecture choices, and embed those into how solutions are proposed, funded, and approved across the portfolio.

Required Experience and Skills

Strategy and Leadership

  • 8+ years of experience in IT, enterprise applications, or architecture roles, with at least 3 years in a leadership position managing a team.
  • Experience setting architecture direction and technical standards in an enterprise environment.
  • Ability to translate organizational needs into clear integration patterns and architecture decisions.
  • Track record of managing budgets for technology work.

Architecture and Integration

  • Deep working knowledge of enterprise integration patterns, API management, and integration tooling across a multi-platform environment.
  • Strong working knowledge of enterprise platforms such as ERP (D365 F&O), HCM (Workday), ITSM (ServiceNow), and collaboration platforms (M365, Box).
  • Experience owning technical standards and holding delivery teams accountable to them.
  • Comfort assessing build-versus-configure tradeoffs and steering work away from unnecessary custom development.
  • Demonstrated experience establishing enterprise architecture governance: defining architecture principles, standing up an architecture review process, and embedding architecture decision rights into how an organization prioritizes and funds technology work.

Custom Development and Delivery

  • Hands-on background in application development and integration delivery. This role is expected to work hands-on at the start, designing integrations, reviewing code, and troubleshooting failures directly, and to shift toward oversight as the team grows.
  • Experience leading custom application and web teams (Drupal experience a plus).

Communication

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; able to explain architecture decisions clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Comfortable surfacing open questions and risk plainly.

Preferred

  • Experience in a nonprofit, international development, or humanitarian sector IT environment.
  • Experience coordinating architecture boundaries across infrastructure and applications teams.
  • Experience with API management platforms (e.g., Azure APIM, Apigee).
  • Experience with event-driven and messaging architectures (e.g., Azure Service Bus, Kafka).
  • Familiarity with cloud-native integration tooling (e.g., Azure Functions, Logic Apps, iPaaS solutions).
  • Experience building on serverless and microservices patterns, not only monolithic architectures.

Organization

The following positions report into this role:

  • Integration and Custom Apps Team Lead
  • Drupal Team (day-to-day led by the Drupal manager)
  • Azure Platform (Application Hosting) Engineers
