Senior Technical Architect

Be the Expert. Shape the Future of Asset Management.

At COSOL, we've spent 25 years helping the world's most asset-intensive organisations get more from their infrastructure. We partner with leaders in utilities, water, energy, mining, oil & gas, and transport to deliver technology and advisory solutions that make reliability possible — because when reliability matters, our clients call us.

Our IBM Maximo practice is looking for a Maximo Technical Consultant who's ready to step into a high-impact, client-facing role where your technical expertise shapes outcomes at an architectural level. If you're the person clients turn to when the hard problems need solving — and you can hold your own in a room with senior stakeholders just as comfortably as you can in a technical design session — we want to hear from you.

About the Role

This isn't a support or admin role. As a Technical Consultant, you'll be the technical authority on complex Maximo engagements — owning architecture decisions, guiding delivery teams, and helping clients build Maximo environments that are robust, scalable, and fit for the future.

Your day-to-day will include:

• Designing and owning end-to-end technical architecture for IBM Maximo Application Suite (MAS) deployments across client environments
• Leading technical delivery across system administration, integrations, customisation, and reporting on large-scale engagements
• Advising clients on infrastructure decisions — including cloud hosting (Azure/AWS), OpenShift configuration, database architecture, and upgrade pathways from Maximo 7.6 to MAS V8/V9
• Acting as a trusted technical advisor to IT decision-makers and senior client stakeholders — translating complex technical concepts into clear, actionable guidance
• Supporting pre-sales and business development — technical scoping, solution demonstrations, proposals, and tenders
• Identifying opportunities to expand COSOL's footprint within client accounts by connecting technical challenges to Maximo capabilities and complementary COSOL solutions
• Mentoring and uplifting the technical capability of consultants across the Maximo practice
• Contributing to practice IP — technical frameworks, architecture patterns, integration accelerators, and reusable assets
• Representing COSOL as a Maximo technical SME in client, industry, and IBM partnership settings

What You'll Bring

Essential:

• Extensive hands-on IBM Maximo technical consulting experience across system administration, integrations, customisation, and reporting in complex, multi-client environments
• Proven ability to design and deliver Maximo technical architecture — including integration design, database architecture, and system configuration at scale
• Proficiency in Maximo database platforms — Oracle, SQL Server, DB2, or Informix
• Programming or scripting experience — SQL, Java, Python, or equivalent — applied in a Maximo delivery context
• A strong track record in client engagement and the confidence to influence and advise at senior stakeholder levels
• Degree in Information Systems, Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline — or equivalent industry experience

Desirable:

• Experience with RedHat OpenShift installation and configuration for MAS deployments
• IBM Maximo certifications (MAS Specialist, Technical Architect, or equivalent)
• Experience delivering MAS V8/V9 implementations or migrations from Maximo 7.6
• Azure or AWS cloud hosting experience in a Maximo context
• Familiarity with Tririga, Cognos, or IoT/Monitor integration frameworks
• Familiarity with ITIL frameworks
• Background in asset-intensive industries: utilities, water, mining, energy, oil & gas, or transport
• Project management experience across Agile and/or Waterfall methodologies
• Experience presenting at industry events, IBM forums, or knowledge-sharing settings

Why COSOL?

• Join a 25-year specialist firm with deep IBM and SAP partnerships and a reputation built on technical excellence
• A practice environment where your IP contributions are valued — architecture patterns, frameworks, and accelerators you build become part of how we deliver
• Real opportunities for business development involvement — not just delivery
• A collaborative team that supports each other, shares knowledge, and invests in growth
• Work on genuinely complex, meaningful problems in critical infrastructure
