Overview
Presight — ADX-listed, G42-backed, and the region's leading GenAI analytics company — is hiring a Solution Architect who is equally comfortable drawing integration blueprints and sitting in front of a client boardroom.
This is not a purely pre-sales or design role.
We need someone who has lived inside data centre programmes from concept through commissioning, owned stakeholder relationships end-to-end, and can still roll up their sleeves when it matters.
Responsibilities
- **End-to-end solution delivery**
- — from requirements capture and HLD/LLD through SIT, UAT, and operational handover; you are the single technical authority across the programme.
- **Stakeholder management**
- — you run relationships with client executives, PMO leads, vendors, and cross-functional delivery teams; you translate complex technical decisions into clear business outcomes.
- **Integration architecture**
- — BMS, DCIM, SCADA, CCTV/VMS, access control, fire alarm, and AI analytics platforms; multi-vendor, multi-protocol (BACnet, Modbus, MQTT, REST).
- **Programme governance**
- — risk registers, CAPEX/OPEX modelling, BoMs, delivery planning, and executive reporting; you bridge engineering and programme management.
- **Team leadership**
- — mentoring engineers, setting technical standards, and ensuring quality across documentation, testing, and handover artefacts.
- Must-have experience
- 10+ years in solution architecture, systems engineering, or technical programme delivery within
- mission-critical data centre or smart infrastructure
- environments.
- Proven track record of
- managing senior stakeholders
- — client C-
- suite, government entities, or Tier 1 contractors — in a data centre or critical infrastructure context.
- Deep hands-on experience with
Ot And Bms And Scada And Dcim
- integration, not just at design level — you have implemented, tested, and commissioned these systems.
- Strong command of
- OT/IoT protocols
- : BACnet, Modbus, MQTT, REST/HTTP APIs.
- Comfortable owning
- CAPEX/OPEX estimates, BoMs, and TCO projections
- as part of solution design.
- Fluent in both engineering language and executive reporting — you do not need a PM to translate for you.
- Nice to have
- Relevant certifications: CDCP, CDCS, CDCE (Uptime Institute), PMP, PRINCE2, or equivalent.
- Exposure to digital twin, BIM, or AI/ML analytics platforms in an operations context.
- Background in system integrator firms or large-scale infrastructure delivery programmes.
- Experience with cloud-native IoT platforms (Azure IoT, Kafka).
- What Presight offers
- A high-visibility programme at the intersection of AI and critical national infrastructure in Abu Dhabi.
- Competitive package including healthcare, education support, and leave benefits.
- Direct access to G42 ecosystem and regional government programmes.
