Job Description
Here's a tighter version, keeping the technical credibility but making it feel less like a standard job spec:
Principal Data Architect DV Cleared
Secure Government & Defence Programmes
UK Hybrid + Client Site
Active DV clearance is essential
Architecture that gets built, deployed and used, not left sitting in a slide deck.
Datatech Analytics is working with a leading UK consulting and technology organisation delivering secure, enterprise-scale data platforms across defence, national security and classified government programmes.
We're looking for Principal Data Architects who want genuine ownership and influence, while staying close to the engineering and delivery.
The role
You'll set the technical direction for large-scale data platforms across mission-critical programmes, working closely with senior stakeholders, engineers and delivery teams.
This is hands-on architecture. You'll help shape the platform, guide implementation and make sure the architecture works in the real world.
What you'll do
Own data architecture across complex, secure programmes
Design end-to-end platforms, from ingestion through to analytics and operational use
Develop scalable architectures for highly classified environments
Translate complex mission requirements into solutions that can actually be delivered
Lead and guide engineering teams through implementation
Shape longer-term data architecture and platform strategy
The environment
AWS, Azure, GCP Databricks, Snowflake Lake, Lakehouse and modern warehouse architectures Distributed processing DevOps, IaC and secure deployment Governance, access control and analytics
What we're looking for
Active DV clearance
Strong track record delivering enterprise-scale data platforms
Experience across defence, national security or secure government environments
Deep cloud data architecture and secure design experience
Comfortable operating with senior technical and business stakeholders
Experience leading teams through complex delivery
Why it matters
These are programmes where data architecture has a direct impact on operational capability. Complex environments, genuine security constraints and platforms that need to work when it matters.
If you're an experienced Data Architect with DV clearance and want to have a real say in how these platforms are designed and delivered, I'd be happy to have a confidential conversation.
