Building Great Engineering Teams Globally
Contract AWS Solutions Architect
*NHS Experience Essential*
Location: Primarily remote with occasional travel to London
Duration: Until January (initially)
Role Overview
We’re seeking a highly skilled AWS-focused Solutions Architect to provide hands-on technical and architectural leadership across high-profile NHS and central government programmes. You’ll be responsible for designing and assuring robust, secure, and scalable solutions on AWS — working across cloud migration, integration, data platforms, and enterprise-wide services.
This role requires a balance of strategic vision and technical depth: you’ll shape architectural direction, engage senior stakeholders, and provide direct technical guidance to delivery teams.
Key Responsibilities
* Define, own, and communicate AWS-centric solution architectures for complex NHS and central government programmes.
* Lead on cloud migration, integration, and modernisation patterns within complex enterprise environments.
* Work closely with engineering, data, security, and product teams to ensure solutions are scalable, cost-effective, and secure.
* Provide technical assurance for solutions delivered by internal teams and suppliers, ensuring alignment with AWS best practices and Well-Architected principles.
* Champion interoperability, open standards, and reusability of cloud services.
* Produce and maintain high-quality architecture artefacts (solution diagrams, decision logs, reference architectures).
* Communicate technical decisions, trade-offs, and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Required Experience
* 6–8+ years’ experience as a Solutions Architect (or Technical Architect), ideally with NHS or central government programme exposure.
* Deep hands-on AWS expertise across multiple services and domains (compute, storage, networking, security, monitoring, automation).
* Proven experience delivering end-to-end cloud solutions in complex, regulated environments.
* Strong understanding of cloud security and compliance standards (NHS DSPT, GDPR, NCSC principles, ISO27001).
* Experience with APIs, microservices, event-driven architectures, and data platforms.
* Skilled in balancing strategic architectural leadership with hands-on delivery guidance.
* Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to bridge technical and business audiences.
* Familiarity with enterprise architecture frameworks (TOGAF, ArchiMate) and delivery tools (Jira, Confluence, modelling tools).
