At DXC, we’re helping leading insurers modernise their platforms, unlock value from data, and accelerate innovation through Smart Applications and AI-enabled solutions.

We’re looking for an experienced Solution Architect with a strong insurance software background to join our pre-sales and solutioning team. This is a high-impact, client-facing role where you will shape end-to-end solutions that drive real business outcomes and support revenue growth across our insurance portfolio.

You’ll work at the intersection of business, technology and sales—partnering closely with account teams, clients, product and delivery to design compelling, scalable and commercially viable solutions.

What you’ll be doing

You will play a leading role across the full sales lifecycle, from early client engagement through to proposal and handover, owning the solution vision and approach.

Your focus will include:

• Leading the design of Smart App and AI-enabled insurance solutions aligned to clear customer outcomes
• Acting as a core member of the pre-sales and sales team, shaping differentiated propositions that support deal progression and revenue growth
• Engaging directly with clients to run discovery workshops, understanding business challenges, operating models, data needs and success measures
• Translating customer requirements into scalable, secure architecture designs covering APIs, integrations, workflows, data and AI capabilities
• Developing compelling solution narratives, proposals, architecture artefacts and implementation approaches for client pursuits
• Providing deep insurance domain insight across areas such as policy administration, claims, underwriting, broking and reinsurance
• Defining practical modernisation strategies that balance innovation with reuse and existing investments
• Driving consistency through reusable patterns, integration models and configuration-first approaches
• Ensuring solutions meet security, compliance, data privacy and responsible AI standards
• Acting as a trusted adviser to senior client stakeholders, clearly articulating complex technical concepts in a business-focused way
• Feeding market insight and client needs into product and solution development, keeping DXC at the forefront of insurance innovation

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for a seasoned architect who combines deep technical expertise with strong commercial awareness and the ability to influence in a sales-driven environment.

You’ll bring:

• Significant experience in solution architecture, pre-sales or client-facing technical roles within insurance software or platforms
• A strong understanding of insurance processes and technology landscapes (P&C, life & annuities, or related domains)
• Proven experience designing enterprise solutions across SaaS, cloud, integration, workflow and AI-enabled architectures
• Experience supporting sales pursuits, including workshops, proposals, solution estimates and executive presentations
• The ability to design end-to-end architectures incorporating APIs, data integration, orchestration, AI/ML or emerging AI capabilities
• Strong commercial acumen—able to link technical design decisions to business value, outcomes and deal success
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to influence both technical and business audiences
• A collaborative, solution-focused mindset with the ability to balance innovation, scalability and delivery practicality

Nice to have

• Experience with AI-enabled solutions, Smart Apps or workflow platforms within insurance
• Knowledge of responsible AI, governance and working in regulated environments
• Relevant certifications in architecture, cloud, data, AI or TOGAF
• Experience working across global teams and supporting multi-region client engagements
