You’ll also play an important role in growing ITI’s presence across the Maritime market. You’ll join a team of 10 IT Solutions Architects and report to the Director, IT Solutions Architecture within our Sales business unit.

- Understanding of complex IT solution sales cycles. Knowledge of the Maritime market is a strong asset;
- Approximately 5+ years of relevant experience in solutions architecture, presales or a similar consultative technology role is considered an asset;
- Relevant technical certifications are considered an asset;
- A university degree in a relevant field or equivalent professional experience;
- Strong spoken and written English skills to work with clients, partners and vendors and participate in industry training, events and conferences. French is considered a strong asset.
