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.

As a curious problem-solver, you will be able to move between the technical and the commercial; and be comfortable building data models as well as presenting findings to senior stakeholders. In this role you'll work independently across the full data stack, understanding the 'why' behind requests before jumping to the 'what', and contributing to the translation of business problems into well-defined, actionable work. You'll be supported by a collaborative team and won't be expected to deliver everything solo from day one, but you'll be expected to grow into doing so. You will Write and maintain SQL models (in Dataform) to transform and serve reliable data across our pipelines Support data engineers in the design, building and testing of data pipelines, able to contribute meaningfully, not just consume the output Build and iterate on cloud-based reports and dashboards in Looker (or similar BI tool), giving our support teams and restaurants clear, actionable insight into performance Translate business questions into well-scoped analysis and understand the problem and domain before reaching for the answer Communicate findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, choosing the right medium for the audience Peer review colleagues' work and contribute to data quality standards and documentation Identify opportunities to automate manual processes and data tasks, and take the initiative to implement them Skills required You will have proven experience in the following: Writing complex SQL to query, transform and model data across our cloud data platform (window functions, CTEs, complex datatypes) Building and maintaining data models in Dataform, or a similar data transformation tool such as Snowflake or DBT, with an understanding of how they fit into the broader pipeline Building reports and dashboards in Looker or a similar BI tool, serving reliable, self-serve data to the business Using Git as standard practice - branching, pull requests and code review Contributing to the translation of business requests into clearly scoped, actionable work items Applying data quality techniques - writing tests, identifying issues proactively and communicating data limitations clearly Documenting data models, definitions and lineage to a production standard Understanding data governance principles and championing good data management practice within the team Applying and understanding when to use relevant statistical methods to support analysis Supporting data engineers in designing, coding and testing data processing pipelines Using AI-assisted coding tools (e.g. Claude) to improve the speed and quality of your work - critically, not blindly - with an awareness of responsible AI use and data governance implications You will also display Clear communication with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, able to explain complex findings in plain language and tell the story behind the data Genuine intellectual curiosity, actively exploring new tools and methods, including AI, and sharing what you learn with the team Comfort with ambiguity, able to define the right question and find the "so what" before jumping to answer A product mindset, understanding the business objective behind every piece of analysis, not just the request on the surface A proactive approach to improving processes, data quality and ways of working, with the initiative to make it happen, not just flag it A collaborative team attitude, peer reviewing others' work, sharing knowledge and contributing to a stronger team Inclusion At Nando's, everyone is welcome. Inspired by our Southern African heritage we know and value the richness that diversity brings to Nando's. We're committed to creating an inclusive and respectful culture for all; including our existing and future Nandocas, partners and suppliers, customers and the communities we are a part of. We deliberately work hard to create an environment where every individual is valued, respected and can flourish regardless of who they are, their background or outlook on life. We welcome applications from a diverse range of individuals and will consider any reasonable adjustments in order to enable candidates to perform as well as possible during the recruitment process.
