If you're DV cleared and tired of being locked into one stack or one client environment, this is worth a look. You'll be working across a range of secure, high-impact programmes with real ownership over how the data platforms are designed and delivered not just implementing someone else's blueprint. What you'll be doing It's a genuine end-to-end architecture role. You won't just be focused on one part of the data lifecycle, you'll own the full picture, from ingestion through to consumption, across different client environments and industries. Designing full data platforms end-to-end, making sure everything flows properly from ingestion through to consumption Working with modern approaches like lakehouse and medallion architectures (Bronze, Silver, Gold) Defining both batch and streaming pipelines depending on the use case Making real decisions around storage, orchestration, governance and security - not just executing a predefined design Working closely with clients and stakeholders to translate business problems into practical technical solutions, across both technical and non-technical audiences Operating in secure, regulated environments where attention to detail and sound judgement matter Tech environment It's a multi-cloud setup so you won't be pigeonholed but they are happy to consider applications from DV Cleared candidates with experience of one or more of the major cloud platforms. AWS, Azure and GCP depending on the project Databricks, Snowflake and Synapse Spark and distributed processing frameworks for large-scale data Streaming technologies such as Kafka or Kinesis You're expected to pick the right tools for the problem, not just default to whatever you know best.

You're working across different projects and industries, with the freedom to steer your own career based on where your strengths lie. There's a good balance of deep technical work and client-facing delivery, and you'll get real exposure to a wide range of tools, platforms and environments rather than repeating the same patterns on the same stack. Interested? If you hold active DV Clearance and want a role where you can design, influence and deliver real data platforms across secure programmes, it's worth a conversation.
