Job Description
The Solution Architect for EIG bridges business operations and technical design to build and implement practical and scalable technology solutions across EIG’s commercial operations. Acting as both a solution designer and implementation lead, this role ensures that digital tools, data structures, and workflows are designed and executed to reflect how work actually happens in the office and in the field.
This person serves as the subject matter expert (SME) for EIG processes—translating needs from EIG into practical, high-impact solutions that improve visibility, efficiency, and integration with DPR’s broader ecosystem.
Key Responsibilities
Solution Architecture
- Design scalable end-to-end EIG technology workflows that connect all aspects of the SPW/EIG lifecycle.
- Prioritize efforts based on SPW/EIG Leaders’s current goals and initiatives. Maintain initiatives with updates, schedules and current scope documents.
- Collaborate with Program Managers and Business Analysts to define business requirements and translate them into functional solutions.
- Document and maintain system architecture diagrams, data flow maps, and integration plans in conjunction with T&I’s enterprise architecture group.
- Evaluate “build vs. buy” technology options.
- Provide functional direction and guidance to developers, vendors, and system administrators during implementation.
Implementation Leadership
- Lead the implementation phase of technology initiatives—responsible for turning solution designs into working, validated systems.
- Depending on the initiative, manage internal and external resources or directly perform the configuration, integration, and testing work required to bring the solution to life.
- Coordinate activities across EIG teams, vendors, and DPR’s technology staff to ensure accurate setup, testing, and validation.
- Partner with Program Managers to plan implementation scope, milestones, and resources based on initiative complexity and scale.
- Resolve technical and operational issues encountered during implementation, escalating where appropriate.
- As part of implementation, collaborate with IT Service and Vendor to establish procedures for resolving user questions/support post roll-out (if there is not a Solution Admin).
Functional Expertise & Business Partnership
- Serve as an EIG SME, ensuring technology decisions align with the realities of EIG Precon and Construction operations.
- Partner closely with operations teams to understand workflows, identify improvement opportunities, and validate solutions.
- Facilitate working sessions and job-site visits to ensure alignment between design intent and execution.
- Represent the EIG business in cross-functional technology discussions, advocating for operational needs within enterprise initiatives.
- Maintain productive vendor relationships, licensing needs/allocations, and contractual obligations.
Governance & Continuous Improvement
- Ensure solutions adhere to T&I’s governance standards and documentation practices.
- Develop reusable templates, SOPs, and implementation playbooks to support scaling across EIG Business Units.
- Gather feedback and lessons learned to inform future roadmap planning.
- Contribute to DPR’s SPW/OES Work Group (iWG) by sharing insights and fostering alignment across operations.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in EIG operations.
- Deep understanding of SPW/EIG Operations Standard, Best Practices and workflows.
- Hands-on experience with DPR digital tools such as CMiC, Cosential, AccuBid, MSR and similar.
- Strong analytical, facilitation, and communication skills with the ability to translate between operational and technical audiences.
- Proven ability to both lead and execute implementation work depending on project needs and available resources.
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Industrial Technology, or Construction Management preferred.
Success Criteria
- Technology solutions implemented successfully across EIG with measurable impact on efficiency, visibility, and throughput.
- Strong engagement and adoption from operations teams across EIG.
- Clear documentation, process maps, and training materials supporting long-term sustainability.
- Demonstrated alignment between SPW/EIG and DPR enterprise systems through effective design and implementation.
