Experience focused only on cloud migrations, Dynamics CRM or purely integration/database projects will not be sufficient unless there is clear, recent evidence of end-to-end software product delivery. Why it might interest you Opportunity to lead delivery in a modern engineering setup where agile ways of working are taken seriously. Clear, technically focused backlog around security, resilience and reliability - not a vague transformation brief. Influential position engaging directly with senior stakeholders on a visible digital initiative. If you are within a realistic commute of Newcastle, Leeds or Birmingham and this aligns with your recent experience, I would be keen to share more details and understand your availability and expectations.

We're Atom bank The bank that's on a mission to make finance faster, simpler and way more human. We've ditched the stuffy banking model to build something that actually works for our customers, whenever and wherever they need us. To make this happen, we're looking for like-minded people who can help us reach our goals and think differently. If you're ready to build the future of banking, we'd love to meet you. What will your 'typical' day look like? Different that's for sure : As a Cloud Security Architect you are a technical leader and an accelerator. You'll translate our strategic objectives into a robust security architecture that protects our customers while enabling the safe, rapid adoption of new services. You'll partner with product and engineering teams to move away from "tick-box" compliance and toward a culture of security by design, ensuring a sustainable flow of value across our entire estate. In your first year, you'll have the autonomy to build deep stakeholder relationships, contribute to our evolving security capability, and create the momentum needed to mitigate risks and reduce long-term technology debt. What you'll be doing: Leading Design : Architecting scalable, resilient, and secure solutions for new products and features. Strategic Roadmapping : Developing aspirational "future state" architectures that bridge the gap between product ambition and technical reality Conversational Governance : Moving beyond rigid frameworks by engaging in ongoing coaching, communicating standards, and capturing architectural decisions (ADRs) in real-time. Cultivating Commitment : Building strong ties with Value Stream leads to ensure security initiatives are prioritized and understood at the leadership level. Modern Defense : Applying principles like Zero Trust and Defense-in-Depth to modern patterns like microservices, event-driven architecture, and serverless computing. DevSecOps Integration : Partnering with DevOps to bake security directly into our CI/CD pipelines. System Resilience : Proactively identifying architectural risks to improve system health and eliminate technical debt. What do we need from you? Deep experience in design, implementation, or consulting within a security context. You're a practitioner in at least one (ideally more) of these areas: Cloud Security, AppSec, Data Security, IAM, or Network Security. You understand how to secure microservices and cloud-native environments (bonus points for GCP, Vertex AI, or Thought Machine). A systematic and disciplined approach to problem-solving with a high attention to detail. You can navigate technology governance processes constructively and inspire others to deliver excellent technical outcomes. Ideally, you hold a CISSP, CISM, or CCSP, and have experience with frameworks like NIST or ISO 27001. Familiarity with Lean/Agile methodologies and "Value Stream" ways of working. What you'll get from us? Salary up to £100k Remote first working, with monthly office visits. Discretionary cash bonus, based on company and individual performance 4-day work week Incredibly generous company pension scheme (maximum of 13% of Atom input - you can put in more) 'All About Me' fund: £200 per year to spend on personal development. 22.5 days annual leave plus public holidays Private Medical Insurance, Health Cash Plan & Life Insurance Enhanced Parental Leave
