Design the future. Shape outcomes. Make it real.
Field Based, competitive salary + benefits
We’re looking for a Solution Architect to design and deliver end-to-end technology solutions that drive real business value. You’ll work at the intersection of strategy and delivery — shaping architectures that are secure, scalable, cost-effective and aligned to enterprise standards.
This is a role for someone who enjoys influence, clarity and ownership — translating complex needs into elegant, build-ready solutions.
What you’ll do
* Own end-to-end solution design across cloud, integration, data, security and operations
* Create high-quality architecture artefacts (options papers, HLDs, LLDs, NFRs and diagrams)
* Partner with stakeholders to shape requirements and smart trade-offs
* Govern designs through assurance and architecture review
* Guide delivery teams, PoCs and technical spikes
* Champion performance, resilience and cost optimisation
* Build reusable patterns that raise the bar across the organisation
What you’ll bring
* Strong cloud experience (Azure and/or AWS)
* Expertise in APIs, microservices and modern integration patterns
* Solid data architecture knowledge (analytics platforms such as Power BI, Fabric, Synapse)
* Security-first mindset (IAM, RBAC, encryption, GDPR)
* Experience with DevOps, CI/CD, IaC and containers
* Architecture framework knowledge (TOGAF or similar)
* Confident communicator who can influence at all levels
