Senior Multi-domain Architect (AI)

Location: Bromley, United Kingdom. This role is responsible for defining the architectural vision and architecture for large, complex AI, automation, and orchestration capabilities that support Network AI and Agentic Transformation across Network Services.

Operating flexibly across Research & Strategy, Engineering & Delivery, and Deterministic Automation pillars, the Senior Multi-domain Architect will shape complex multi-domain architecture, guide architecture direction, contribute to standards and roadmap evolution, and ensure solutions are scalable, governed, and production ready.

• Define architectural vision and architecture for large complex capabilities supporting Network AI and Agentic Transformation across strategy, engineering, and deterministic automation needs.
• Work with business and technology stakeholders to shape architecture for AI enabled use cases, orchestration patterns, integration capabilities, and deterministic automation solutions across multiple domains.
• Evaluate system impacts, interfaces, dependencies, and architectural implications of new use cases, platform capabilities, and delivery approaches; guide solution decisions accordingly.
• Lead rapid shaping of high level architecture for complex solutions, adding detail iteratively as business requirements, technical options, and implementation constraints evolve.
• Ensure architecture is flexible, modular, and designed to adapt to changing use case priorities, new AI capabilities, and shifting transformation demand across pillars.
• Contribute to and evolve reusable architectural patterns, templates, standards, and design guidance that improve consistency across AI delivery, orchestration, and deterministic automation implementations.
• Partner with engineering and delivery teams to clarify architecture, support implementation planning, and resolve architectural impediments throughout execution.
• Define and communicate non functional requirements and architectural guardrails to ensure solutions are secure, resilient, scalable, supportable, and compliant with enterprise standards.

• Substantial experience defining architecture and architectural vision for large, complex technology capabilities spanning application, data, integration, automation, and workflow domains.
• Extensive experience using Python.
• Ability to operate flexibly across strategy, architecture, engineering, and automation domains.
• Experience shaping architecture for AI enabled use cases, workflow orchestration, tool integration, and deterministic automation execution patterns across multiple teams or domains.
• Strong understanding of evaluating system impacts, interfaces, dependencies, non functional requirements, and implementation trade offs for complex enterprise solutions.
• Ability to translate evolving business and transformation objectives into architectural direction, implementation pathways, reusable patterns, and future state design considerations.
• Experience facilitating solution driven discussions and guiding stakeholders from high level concepts to scalable, modular, and governed architectural choices.
• Considerable knowledge of enterprise architecture standards, technology governance, security expectations, and controlled delivery requirements in a regulated environment.
• Familiarity with AI and agentic solution concepts, including context grounding, tool interaction patterns, model enabled workflows, orchestration approaches, and guardrail considerations.
• Ample understanding of deterministic automation concepts, including workflow sequencing, approval points, rollback considerations, exception handling, and separation of decision and execution layers.
• Experience working across architecture, engineering, product, delivery, and operations stakeholders to establish alignment on design intent, delivery feasibility, and implementation readiness.
• Ability to define non functional requirements covering security, performance, resiliency, scalability, maintainability, supportability, and observability for complex solutions.
• Experience contributing to reusable reference patterns, architectural standards, templates, roadmaps, and design guidance that improve consistency and speed across teams and domains.

• Analytical thinking and architectural judgement, including the ability to compare solution options, evaluate longer term implications, and guide trade off decisions at scale.
• Supporting junior architects or engineers through architectural guidance, design reviews, and practical mentorship.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to explain architecture, risks, constraints, and implementation implications clearly to technical and non technical audiences, including senior stakeholders.

• UK private healthcare for you and your family plus an annual health screen, with the option to purchase a screen for your partner.
• Competitive pension plan, life assurance, and group income protection cover in case of disability or health reasons.
• 20 days of backup childcare and 20 days of backup adult care per annum.
• Flexible benefits selection (wellbeing account, travel insurance, critical illness, etc.) and a flex fund for benefits.
• Access to an emotional wellbeing helpline and virtual GP services.
• Use of the Peppy App which provides 1:1 support, consultations and resources relating to men's health, women's health, fertility, menopause and pregnancy & parenthood.
• Access to gyms, exercise classes and wellbeing apps through Wellhub, including Headspace and Calm.
• Ability to donate to charities of your choice directly through payroll with the bank matching your contribution.
• Opportunities to volunteer in your local area and develop new skills with community groups.
