With expertise in using architectural practices across business and solution domains to enable large, complex businesses to plan, design and implement transformation programmes and projects, you will help clients to make informed decisions that provide real benefit. Candidates must be eligible and willing to gain high level UK Security Clearance to apply for this position. Key Responsibilities Working either individually or as part of a larger Actica team, you will undertake a number of consultancy assignments, which could include: Providing architecture services in complex transformation programmes to enable alignment and drive coherent delivery based on value streams; Developing baseline and transition architectures to support the client's strategic and/or implementation planning of ICT services within a business change programme; Developing architecture views to describe all aspects of a client's organisation, such as its business, applications and data architecture; Developing and assuring high-level solution designs.

The following desirable attributes and areas of experience will make you particularly suited to this role with Actica: Experience in the public sector, defence or financial services, preferably within the ICT context on enterprise solutions; Consulting experience in the public sector or defence; Architectural expertise in one or more of business, solutions or service architecture domains.

Engineering Team Lead About Swap Swap is the infrastructure behind modern agentic commerce. The only AI-native platform connecting backend operations with a forward-thinking storefront experience. Built for brands that want to sell anything - anywhere, Swap centralises global operations, powers intelligent workflows, and unlocks margin-protecting decisions with real-time data and capability. Our products span cross-border, tax, returns, demand planning, and our next-generation agentic storefront, giving merchants full transparency and the ability to act with confidence. At Swap, we're building a culture that values clarity, creativity, and shared ownership as we redefine how global commerce works. About the Role We are looking for a Team Lead to found and lead the newly formed Unified Domain Team within our Enablement Group. This is a greenfield, high-leverage role: you will define and drive adoption of Swap's canonical domain entities and API contracts across the entire engineering organisation. This team exists to solve a real and growing problem - every new partner or market integration today requires bespoke, duplicated engineering effort. You will eliminate that tax by establishing shared, stable, and versioned domain structures that product teams can build on with confidence. The ideal candidate is both a technical leader and a systems thinker who thrives in ambiguous, cross-cutting work and knows how to ship pragmatically without sacrificing long-term integrity. This is a hands-on role ( 50% coding initially) with people leadership responsibilities. Responsibilities Lead a small, focused team with the autonomy and clarity to build foundational infrastructure. Define, publish, and version canonical domain models for Swap's core entities. Own the delivery of schemas and OpenAPI definitions. Establish and maintain a lightweight governance pipeline: review process, ownership model, versioning policy, and deprecation strategy. Translating software requirements into working, high-performance software. Playing a key role in architectural and design decisions, building toward efficient architecture. Collaborate with cross-functional teams; work closely with product managers, and other engineers and team leads to gather requirements and translate them into technical specifications. Hire, mentor, and grow the team as scope expands. Requirements Proven experience leading or tech-leading an engineering team, including cross-functional collaboration and ownership of architectural decisions. 5+ years of backend or full-stack engineering experience, with strong TypeScript/JavaScript and Node.js skills. Experience designing versioned APIs (REST/OpenAPI and/or GraphQL with schema governance). Experience working in platform or infrastructure engineering roles - comfortable with work whose primary customer is other engineers. Ability to navigate ambiguity: you can ship a pragmatic V0, articulate why it's the right trade-off, and iterate toward a stronger long-term model. Excellent communication skills - you can translate complex technical standards into clear guidance for product engineers. Experience with eCommerce systems, partner integrations, or multi-tenant platforms is a strong plus. Passion for systems that outlast individuals - documentation, ownership, and tooling are first-class concerns for you. A BSc in Computer Science or Mathematics (or equivalent experience). Enjoy working in a fast paced, high-growth environment.

Senior Solutions Architect - Email & Collaboration Security - London UK Why This Role ExistsThe Email & Collaboration Security (ECS) product line sits at the intersection of some of the most consequential challenges in enterprise security today: AI augmented threats, sprawling collaboration surfaces, multi cloud delivery complexity, and the expectation that detection and response capabilities keep pace with a threat landscape that does not wait. This architecture is not greenfield. It carries two decades of accumulated product decisions, integration contracts, and operational constraints. The right candidate understands why that history matters before proposing how to move beyond it. Reasoning about legacy shape and evolutionary trajectory simultaneously is not optional; it is the job. The successful candidate will serve as connective tissue across product management, engineering, and the broader Architecture Leadership Team - turning customer and business problems into coherent, deliverable technical direction, and owning the decisions that give ECS engineering teams a stable foundation to move fast with quality. AI First Ways of Working Mimecast is an AI first engineering organisation and this is an operating expectation. The person in this role is expected to use AI tools as a genuine, daily part of how they work: for design exploration and iteration, documentation, analysis, prototyping, and research synthesis. This means having a real, practised opinion on where AI tooling accelerates quality decisions and where it introduces risk. It also means designing systems that incorporate AI components thoughtfully: understanding the implications of LLM integration, agent boundaries, prompt and data contract stability, and evaluation coverage for AI driven features. Candidates who treat AI tooling as optional or experimental are not the right fit for this role. The expectation is fluency and daily practice, not passing familiarity. ECS Domain Email threat detection and prevention Email security efficacy Collaboration security DMARC analyzer Data platform and observability Analysis and Response End user application integration Internal operations enablement What You Will Do Lead from Problem Space, Not Solution SpaceThe role engages at the problem framing stage, not after requirements have already hardened into tickets. This means facilitating workshops with PMs, UX, and engineers to surface real customer constraints and articulate what good looks like in business and user terms before any technical shape is proposed. Own Integration Contracts as Product ArtefactsThe durable interfaces - APIs, event contracts, data schemas - that connect ECS capabilities to the broader Mimecast platform are first class artefacts owned by this role. They outlast individual features, and the coordination work that makes integrations actually land across teams and time is part of the remit. Build the Architectural ContextEngineering Teams Operate Inside ADRs, service interaction patterns, NFR targets, and data contracts are not documentation - they are the substrate that lets engineering teams and AI assisted development workflows make consistent decisions at scale. The artefacts produced in this role are clear, reasoned, and durable. Govern Without BlockingGovernance is a mechanism for alignment and acceleration, not gatekeeping. Structure and discipline are introduced where they reduce risk or improve quality - and removed where ceremony adds cost without value. The role engages the Chief Architect early, pushes back constructively when platform standards do not fit the ECS context, and helps teams close decisions with conviction rather than endless review. Reason About Cost and Unit EconomicsInfrastructure choices are sized, cost trajectories modelled for new architecture work, and unexpected spend is flagged with a proposed remediation. The frame is cost per outcome - per protected mailbox, per remediated incident - not just monthly AWS spend. Communicate at Every AltitudeA one page decision record that lands with engineers, a solution brief that holds up under senior architecture review, a strategy narrative that resonates with product and commercial leadership - this role operates across all of those registers. Whiteboard sessions produce actual decisions, not just richer ambiguity. What You Will Bring 10+ years building and operating production SaaS systems, with at least 3 years in a Solutions Architect, Principal Engineer, or equivalent role carrying product shaping responsibility A genuinely broad architectural lens - thinking about system shape, data flows, and organisational constraints rather than reaching for the nearest deep technical rabbit hole Comfort operating across cloud native patterns (AWS, Kafka, managed services, distributed event architectures) at high throughput - able to reason about trade offs with confidence, without needing to be the most technically specialist person in the room Product Understanding - Not Just Technical Understanding Prior close collaboration with Product Managers and UX designers, with an understanding of jobs to be done framing and a real opinion on what makes a product bet good - not just a technical bet Genuine customer orientation: asking what problem the customer has before asking how to build the feature Understanding of SaaS unit economics, the commercial implications of architectural choices, and how to reason about scale from a product perspective as well as a systems one An understanding of what twenty years of software history means in a production system - no assumption of greenfield, and no treatment of legacy as only debt; it is accumulated context Structure and discipline as cognitive defaults, not imposed processes - thorough, well reasoned artefacts, and a habit of leaving things clearer than they were found An ability to connect dots across a large picture with many moving parts, make a call, and communicate it clearly - rather than waiting for certainty that will not arrive Self Direction and Strategic Initiative A proactive self starter who identifies the right problems to work on without being told, and drives them to resolution Comfortable acting independently within a set of principles, while keeping the right stakeholders informed and in sync - not seeking permission, but maintaining alignment Thrives with ambiguity and treats it as a problem to be structured, not a reason to pause Learning Orientation - Not Encyclopaedic Knowledge Able to reach a solution even without all the knowledge in front of them - a problem solver who knows how to navigate to an answer, not a mnemonic database AI tooling treated as a core capability multiplier, with a real daily practice in design work, documentation, research synthesis, and prototyping Stays ahead of where the market and the technology are going, and brings that signal back into product and architecture decisions Bonus Points Background in email security, threat detection, DLP, identity, or data platforms Familiarity with agentic AI, MCP (Model Context Protocol), or LLM application architecture Experience with eval design for AI features, product discovery practices, or data contract / data mesh approaches Exposure to M365 or GWS integration patterns, SMTP relay architecture, or cloud native security SaaS What We Offer Impact: architecture decisions that protect millions of mailboxes and shape the technical direction of one of Mimecast's core product pillars Voice: a direct working relationship with the Chief Architect and a genuine say in technology direction - not an advisory lane Senior peers: a small, high trust Architecture Leadership Team where everyone operates at a high level Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field - or equivalent demonstrable experience 10+ years of professional software engineering and architecture experience, with at least 3 years in a senior architecture or principal engineering role A track record of product shaping responsibility, not just technical delivery Active, daily use of AI development tools in a professional setting - not experimentation, practice Equal Opportunity Employer Mimecast is an equal opportunity employer committed to an inclusive and diverse workplace. We consider everyone equally: your race, age, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, ability, marital status, nationality, or any other protected characteristic won't affect your application. The base salary range for this position is £124,000 - £186,000 base + benefits. This reflects the minimum and maximum target for new hire salaries for this position. This position may also be eligible for incentive plans and other related benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. These factors and individual capabilities will also determine the individual pay offered.
