About the job you’re considering
You’ll be joining a passionate, professional and highly skilled team of architects and engineers who specialise in building and integrating custom software solutions at enterprise scale.
Innovation in delivery is always at the forefront of our minds, which is why we utilise a variety of cloud, open‑source and proprietary technologies to achieve the best possible outcome for our clients. We have world‑class architecture and software engineering communities; we invest in doing things right and have plenty to say on the subject.
Hybrid working: The places that you work from day to day will vary according to your role, your needs, and those of the business; it will be a blend of company offices, client sites, and your home, noting that you will be unable to work at home 100 % of the time.
Your Role
Solution Architects shape and define solution architectures for our clients. These architectures are used to define project plans, manage detailed design, inform technical risk analysis and support estimation. We work with a client from the earliest stages of a project through to delivery and “go‑live”. We provide technical leadership and support to the Programme Director or Engagement Manager. As a member of our solution architecture team, you will bring a mix of technical skills, industry insight, business acumen and leadership, forging close working relationships with our architecture and engineering teams in the UK and India, as well as other Capgemini disciplines.
* Work on some of the most leading‑edge cloud‑native architectures in development today.
* Take end‑to‑end ownership of shaping solutions & defining the right architectural approach.
* Collaborate closely with our engineering teams to ensure our solutions are built to reflect your solution vision and make the best use of current development practices.
* Be a trusted technology adviser to our clients as well as to Capgemini colleagues.
Your Skills and Experience
* Excellent knowledge of Google Cloud Platform capabilities for driving transformation and solution delivery.
* Experience and track record of leading end‑to‑end design and implementation of Cloud Transformation initiatives (e.g., application/platform modernisation) using Google Cloud Platform.
* Experience with Well‑architected hyperscaler frameworks and design methodology (e.g., C4, Domain‑Driven Design & TOGAF/SAFe). (Desired, but not essential)
* Hands‑on experience with open‑source technologies and development frameworks (e.g., Spring, ReactJS, NodeJS).
* Experience designing DevOps‑enabled platforms using containerisation technologies: Docker or Kubernetes.
