Senior Solution Architect & Solution Architect

This role is ideal for highly experienced IT and Data Centre professionals, particularly those with a strong background in government or PSU environments. Candidates should possess a Master's degree or Engineering degree in Computer Science, IT, or Electronics, coupled with a minimum of 14-20 years of experience, including significant time as a Solution Architect. Individuals adept at strategic planning, cloud infrastructure governance, cybersecurity frameworks, and client engagement for IT solutions in a contractual setting will thrive.

Those with less than 14 years of total relevant experience or insufficient experience specifically in a Solution Architect role (at least 5 years for Senior role) should not apply. Candidates seeking permanent government employment might find the contractual nature (3 years, renewable) a dealbreaker. Lack of experience with Government/PSU Data Centres or inability to work under contract terms would also be disqualifying. This is not suitable for freshers or candidates with only basic experience.

RailTel, as a Navratna PSU under the Ministry of Railways, offers significant institutional prestige. While the roles are contractual, they involve high-level strategic responsibilities in critical national IT infrastructure, offering excellent exposure and the opportunity to contribute to large-scale projects. The high CTC reflects the seniority and expertise required. These positions offer valuable experience that can enhance one's professional standing, even if long-term growth within a permanent government framework isn't guaranteed.
