About Us: With $313.7 billion of gross assets under management, as of March 31, 2026, British Columbia Investment Management Corporation (BCI) is the provider of investment management services for British Columbia’s public sector and one of the largest asset managers in Canada. BCI seeks investment opportunities around the world and across a range of asset classes that convert savings into productive capital. Our investment returns play a significant role in helping our institutional clients build a financially secure future for their beneficiaries. Headquartered in Victoria, British Columbia, and with teams spanning Vancouver, New York, London, and Mumbai. BCI integrates environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into all investment decisions to meet clients' risk and return requirements. Our people shape employee-focused initiatives, creating a strong culture. To learn more about our culture and values, visit our BCI Values in Action page. BCI's Technology team is scaling how enterprise architecture shows up across the organization, and we're looking for an Enterprise Architect to help lead that expansion. Based in Victoria, with Vancouver considered for the right candidate, you'll work hands on with Technology Solution Managers and business partners across BCI, shaping the patterns and roadmaps behind our modernization. This is a cooperative role, not a top down one: you'll adapt your approach and level of detail to whoever is in the room, moving comfortably between technical deep dives and plain language business conversations. If you can translate complexity into something a room full of different audiences can act on, and you'd rather build consensus than dictate it, we'd like to hear from you. Posting close date: August 20, 2026
THE OPPORTUNITY
BCI's Technology team is modernizing the platform that supports one of Canada's largest institutional investors. As an Enterprise Architect, you'll shape the architectures behind that transformation — setting standards, patterns, and roadmaps across application, data, integration, cloud, security, and AI — while staying close enough to implementation to keep your recommendations grounded and credible.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Develop and optimize enterprise architectures that enable BCI's modernization and transformation
- Define and evolve architecture standards, principles, guidelines, and patterns aligned to industry frameworks and best practices
- Build business capability and technology roadmaps in partnership with business and technology teams, and help drive them to delivery
- Review architectures-in-development and provide constructive, practical feedback to delivery teams
- Evaluate emerging AI — including generative and agentic systems — and establish governance guardrails for responsible adoption across BCI
- Identify and prove out innovation opportunities through rapid prototyping and proof‑of‑concept work
- Build and evolve the tools and systems that power the EA practice itself — repositories, models, and automation that make architecture decisions faster and more consistent
- Bring risk, compliance, and security considerations into architecture decisions, and support the governance that keeps BCI's technology direction coherent and well‑controlled
WHAT YOU BRING
- 5+ years as an Enterprise Architect or in a related architecture role, supported by a background in software development, application architecture, and solution architecture
- Demonstrated ability to bridge hands‑on technology implementation with enterprise strategy, translating business objectives into technology outcomes
- Strong architectural pattern recognition — identifying recurring challenges and reusable solutions across business and technology domains
- Hands‑on experience with AI assistants and agentic tools in a technical or architecture context, with a working understanding of AI‑related risks, controls, and architectural requirements
- Proven experience driving cloud modernization initiatives, with strong analytical and problem‑solving skills
- Experience with rapid prototyping, Agile approaches, and DevOps practices
- Excellent communication and facilitation skills — able to synthesize complexity, present clearly to technical and non‑technical audiences, resolve conflict, and build consensus
- Depth in one or more architecture domains: data, application/solution, cloud, security, or integration
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related STEM field, or equivalent experience
- Professional certification(s) in cloud or architecture an asset
