More:
We are embarking on a full systems transformation of a mission-critical platform, backed by significant investment and international ambitions. This opportunity allows you to shape both the core architecture and the intelligent services that will fuel our growth for years to come. We are looking for a Solution Architect who can combine system design expertise with a forward-looking view on how AI and machine learning can be embedded into modern, large-scale platforms.
Join us for a hybrid working experience in Manchester or Staffordshire, where you will have direct influence over architectural decisions, with the scope to shape AI-powered capabilities. Be part of a high-growth, international journey, building a platform designed for the next decade. If you are ready to step into a strategic role at the crossroads of architecture, engineering, and AI innovation, we would love to hear from you.
