Overview
We’re partnered with a global outsourcing organisation to recruit a Software Architect.
This person will use deep cloud, integration and DevOps expertise to define the architecture for shared platforms, services and CI/CD pipelines across digital products.
Responsibilities
* Define and maintain reference architectures for platforms, integrations, and serverless/event‑driven solutions.
* Produce clear architectural artefacts for Engineering and QA teams.
* Lead CI/CD pipeline patterns, including automated build/test/deploy and quality gates.
* Ensure platforms are testable by default, with automated environments and QA workflows.
* Provide specialist Azure leadership (Power Platform, Logic Apps, Azure Functions), with awareness of AWS (e.g., Lambda).
* Set patterns supporting both low‑code and pro‑code development.
* Ensure cloud designs meet security, compliance, operational and cost‑efficiency standards.
* Work collaboratively across Architecture, Engineering, QA and Operations.
Qualifications
* Strong background in cloud architecture (Azure essential; Power Platform/Dynamics ideal).
* Experience designing CI/CD pipelines and automation frameworks.
* Solid grounding in integration, APIs and event‑driven architectures.
* Practical experience with Azure Functions, Logic Apps and cloud‑native components.
* Ability to turn strategy into clear designs.
* Excellent communicator with collaborative influence.
This is a hybrid role, requiring 2 days from their West Midlands offices per week.
