Platform Architect

Act as the EIS product subject matter expert for the Discovery Phase. Assess how Client’s current functional and technical landscape fits with EIS, identify product fit and gaps, define the EIS-aligned target-state architecture contribution, and estimate the effort and dependencies required to migrate from the current state to a target state with EIS as the core platform

Tasks

• Validate relevant EIS product capabilities, architecture, configuration model, extension mechanisms, integration patterns, data model, deployment considerations, and product constraints.
• Work with Business Analysts and customer’s stakeholders to map current capabilities and processes to EIS capabilities.
• Perform structured functional and technical fitment analysis, distinguishing out-of-the-box capability, configuration, extension or customisation, integration, data migration, and genuine product gaps.
• Assess how EIS will integrate with other key applications in the target-state architecture.
• Provide EIS architecture inputs, including integrations, data flows, and key design considerations.
• Identify EIS-related dependencies, assumptions, risks, constraints, and areas requiring further validation with EIS Software.
• Define migration options and recommend an adoption approach for the target state.
• Provide indicative effort estimates for EIS configuration, integrations, data migration, and implementation.
• Contribute to fitment analysis, gap assessment, target-state architecture, migration roadmap, and risk identification.
• Validate recommendations and findings with internal project team and customer’s stakeholders.

• Ability to assess configuration, customization, and integration requirements within EIS.
• Strong stakeholder management, workshop facilitation, and communication skills., * Recent direct EIS delivery experience.
• Experience in multi-country insurance transformations across the UK and Europe.
• Experience preparing implementation estimates, migration roadmaps, and architecture recommendations for investment decisions.
