Shaftesbury Road, Cambridge, UK
Job Title: Lead Software Architect
Salary: £68,600 to £91,700
Location: Cambridge, UK – Hybrid
Contract: Permanent
Hours: Full time, 35 Hours Per Week
Are you enthusiastic about shaping technology that delivers impact at scale?
As we continue to evolve our digital platforms to support learners, lecturers and researchers around the world, we are looking to appoint an experienced and motivated Lead Software Architect to join our Academic Technology group here at Cambridge University Press & Assessment, a world‑leading academic publisher and assessment organisation and a proud part of the University of Cambridge.
This is a fantastic opportunity to play a meaningful role in shaping the technical foundations of globally used digital products, ensuring they remain scalable, secure and fit for the future.
About the role
As Lead Software Architect, you will be accountable for owning the software architecture and engineering delivery across a product or platform vertical within our Academic Technology group.
Working at the intersection of solution architecture, product and engineering, you will translate solution designs and product priorities into well‑architected, shippable software, ensuring that technical direction is sound and delivery is sustained from planning through to production and live operation.
You will provide technical leadership across the full engineering lifecycle, including backend and frontend architecture, infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines and operational readiness. While this is not primarily a hands‑on coding role, it requires a strong engineering background and the ability to review code, challenge design decisions, unblock engineers and engage directly where it adds value.
A core aspect of the role is leading the adoption of AI‑enhanced engineering practices. You will shape how teams use AI‑assisted tooling across planning, development and quality assurance, focusing on responsible, practical use that measurably improves delivery quality, throughput and maintainability.
You will work closely with Solution Architects, Product Owners and UX colleagues to ensure requirements are technically feasible, well specified and correctly decomposed, acting as the key technical bridge between solution intent and engineering execution.
Additional responsibilities and accountabilities:
Owning the software architecture for an assigned product or platform area, ensuring solutions support both current delivery and future scalability.
Driving engineering delivery from planning through to production, translating solution designs into implementable engineering plans with clear scope, dependencies and sequencing.
Providing technical leadership and direction to distributed engineering teams, including Far shore, near shore and contract resources.
Removing technical blockers, making pragmatic trade‑off decisions and keeping delivery on track.
Defining and upholding technical standards, patterns and engineering conventions.
Leading the adoption of AI‑assisted software development practices and tooling across engineering teams.
Owning operational readiness, including infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring and developer experience.
Evaluating technology and tooling choices, including build‑vs‑buy decisions, with clear and defensible rationale.
This position has been classified as a hybrid role, requiring the selected candidate to typically spend 40-60% of their time collaborating and connecting face-to-face at their dedicated location. Aside from our hybrid principles, other flexible working requests will be considered from the first day of employment, including other work arrangements should you require adjustments due to a disability or long-term health condition.
About You
As a senior software architecture or engineering leader, you will have a proven record of owning complex platforms or digital products end‑to‑end. You will be confident operating across technical and non‑technical audiences, bringing sound judgement, strong communication skills and a pragmatic approach to decision‑making.
You will have experience translating product and solution designs into engineering delivery, leading distributed teams, and balancing technical quality with delivery pace in complex environments.
If you meet the above minimum requirements, we encourage you to apply.
Your application will be even stronger if you can also demonstrate experience in content platforms, education technology, modern web technology stacks, or introducing new engineering tools and practices.

The first few years of your engineering career shape how you think for the rest of it. We want juniors who are curious, who pick things up fast, and who take that early learning seriously. You'll join a squad working on real production code from day one, with senior engineers around you whose job includes growing you. AI is reshaping how all of us write software, and you'll learn that on the job, alongside the fundamentals. This is an IC role with a clear path forward, and we invest in that path. What you'll do Build foundational skills on real production work. Well defined tasks with senior engineers supervising. The work is small in scope but real, and your code ships and serves customers. Learn the craft deliberately. Code review feedback, pairing, documentation, tests. These are the fundamentals that compound, and we protect time for them. Use the tools well. Source control, your dev environment, CI, observability, and AI tooling, which we treat as part of the workflow. Try things and bring back what you find. Communicate clearly. Tell your team what you're working on, why, how it's going, and where you're stuck. Asking for help is part of the job. Improve the docs. Whenever something tripped you up, write the explanation that would have helped. The codebase improves, and so do you. The shape we're hiring for For juniors, we hire for shape more than experience. Curiosity. You're interested in how systems work, why decisions were made, and what you don't yet understand. Learning velocity. You pick things up fast from pairing, code review, docs, AI tools, and conversations. You don't wait for someone to teach you. Emerging ownership. You complete what you start, ask when stuck, and take responsibility for your share of the work. Clear communication. You say what's going well, what isn't, and what you need. Change disposition. You enjoy that the work is changing fast. That's part of the appeal. You might be a strong fit if You're at the start of your career: an internship, bootcamp, computer science degree, self taught with a portfolio, or early in your first role. You can write code in at least one mainstream language (Python, TypeScript, Java, Go). Not yet expertly, but clearly enough to do the job. You've used Git, written tests, and shipped something: a personal project, course work, or an internship. You're comfortable using AI tooling in your workflow, and you treat it as a way to learn faster rather than a shortcut to think less. You enjoy explaining what you've learned, even imperfectly, because that's how it sticks. You might be a less good fit if You're looking for a place that hands you fully specified tasks and expects nothing else. You'd rather not have feedback on your work, or you find pair programming uncomfortable on principle. You'd prefer to work alone with code and not interact much with people. You'd rather not use AI tooling, or you treat it as a workaround for learning the fundamentals rather than a way to learn them faster. You're looking for a fast track to management. This role is about technical growth. How we work Opus 2 builds the platform that leading legal teams use to run their most complex work: a distributed, multi tenant SaaS platform with API first surfaces, where security, privacy, and compliance are first class concerns. The stakes for our customers are real, so we care about quality. We also move fast and ship, because the alternative is irrelevance. Strong ownership. Squads own their products end to end, from the customer outcome through to operating them in production. Pragmatic engineering. We favour simple, testable solutions over premature abstraction. We use data where it informs a real decision. A learning and improvement culture. We're building an engineering organisation that learns and adapts at the pace AI is forcing on the work. That's the bar for hiring, growth, and how we run the team. Coaching as part of seniority. Senior engineers help juniors, mid levels, and each other grow. We protect that time on calendars. A work in progress Opus 2 is in real transition. AI is reshaping how our customers work and how we build software, and we're investing in the engineering organisation to keep pace. Some of that is already settled; other parts are still being shaped. If you want a fully paved path, this isn't it yet. If you want to be an agent of change in a team that's clear about where it's going and pragmatic about how to get there, there's real leverage here.

What's Exciting About the Role Verifone is seeking a Data Engineer (Kafka) to join our Platform Engineering team. This is an operations-first role with a strong emphasis on scripting, automation, and pipeline development. You'll be hands on with day to day Kafka operations, reliability, tuning, and high availability for payment gateway solutions that process billions of transactions annually on prem and in AWS Cloud. Beyond keeping the lights on, you'll play a key role in building the data pipelines-of which Kafka is a core component-that power Verifone's new AI, machine learning, and analytics initiatives. You'll also be part of an active effort to migrate Kafka and related services to Kubernetes, giving you hands on experience with a meaningful infrastructure modernization project. The technology footprint is broad: Redis, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Snowflake, and more-so you'll grow well beyond a single technology niche. This hybrid role is open to hiring candidates located in: Bucharest, Romania Ashford, United Kingdom Riga, Lativa Warsaw, Poland Key Responsibilities Kafka Operations & Reliability Manage and support Apache Kafka clusters (including MSK), Kafka Connect ecosystem, and KSQL for high throughput, fault tolerant messaging and event streaming pipelines. Monitor system health, set up alerts, and drive incident response and root cause analysis (RCA). Handle day to day operational tasks including offset management, lag monitoring, consumer group management, and cluster rebalancing. Perform routine cluster maintenance: upgrades, configuration changes, scaling, and health checks. Scripting, Automation & DevOps Develop and manage automation scripts using Python and Shell scripting to reduce manual toil and improve operational efficiency. Design, implement, and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines for patching automation. Build and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or similar. Containerize and orchestrate workloads using Docker and Kubernetes, with the opportunity to help migrate Kafka and related services to Kubernetes. Data Pipeline Development Build and optimize end to end data pipelines, with Kafka as a core streaming component alongside batch and ETL processes, enabling new AI, ML, and analytics use cases. Collaborate with development teams to implement best practices for data flow, security, scalability, and performance. Continuously identify and implement improvements to the software development lifecycle (SDLC). Cloud & Infrastructure Manage cloud infrastructure on AWS (VMs, networking, storage, IAM, etc.). Support cloud migration tasks and assist in moving workloads between on prem and cloud environments. Required Qualifications / Skills 4+ years of overall engineering experience with 2+ years of hands on experience supporting Kafka infrastructure in a large scale production environment. Kafka Producer/Consumer microservices concepts and Kafka distributed architecture. Solid Linux fundamentals: networking basics, logs, system troubleshooting, process/memory, disk. Strong scripting and automation skills (Python, Bash) with a track record of reducing operational toil. CI/CD pipeline development and Infrastructure as Code experience (Terraform preferred). Cloud engineering skills, preferably AWS (EC2, VPC, IAM, MSK/ElastiCache, CloudWatch). Familiarity with observability tools (metrics/logs/tracing concepts) and incident response practices. Basic understanding of distributed systems tradeoffs (availability, consistency, partitions, backpressure). Strong communication and presentation skills with emphasis on executive communication. Flexible with regards to working shifts; on call and weekends.
