Enterprise Hybrid Platform Architect (Advisory) - Manager - National Security Location: Bristol, London & Other locations Important - due to the nature of the work, it is essential for applicants to hold current 'National Security Vetting' aligned to a UK National Security organisation. KPMG Overview KPMG is part of a global network of firms that offers Audit, Tax, Consulting, Deal Advisory and Technology services. Through the talent of over 17,000 colleagues, we bring our creativity and insight to our clients' most critical challenges. With offices across the UK, we work with everyone from small start-ups and individuals to major multinationals, in virtually every industry imaginable. Our work is often complex, yet our vision is simple: to be the clear choice for our clients, for our people and for the communities we work in. KPMG's AI & Platform Engineering practice helps clients transform the way they deliver the technology underpinnings of their businesses. We work with the UK's largest and most complex organisations to: Develop strategies for the adoption and exploitation of modern platform technologies - both in the cloud and on-premises. Build the operating models, architectures and capabilities to deliver value from cloud and hybrid platforms. Help clients operate their platform estates effectively and cost efficiently over the long term. We need Hybrid Platform Architects that are comfortable providing advice and delivering to C suite leaders and senior client technologists across our whole client base but, in particular, this role will be aligned to our well established National Security team. National Security The National Security sector is one of KPMG's key priority sectors, and we have ambitions for high growth over the next three years. It is anticipated that this role will be a key contributor to that growth. The Role Enterprises, when starting on their modernisation journey, often imagine that they will simplify their environment. The reality for many, however, is that adoption of technologies such as cloud adds additional technologies and capabilities, drives divergence in operating models, often splits business processes across multiple tech stacks in different landing zones and, overall, adds significant complexity to the enterprise estate. The platform architect must make sense of this new complexity, and be able to tame it through judicious use of both old and new technologies coupled with "hybrid" processes that address the needs of both the legacy and the new platform environments. They must have a strong knowledge of both the traditional enterprise landscape, as well as a thorough appreciation of the major cloud platforms and the opportunities, capabilities and pitfalls they present. Skills, Qualifications and Experience Required We are seeking developing technical leaders who can communicate and manage relationships with senior stakeholders, build compelling transformation journeys and be a key player in their delivery. You will have proven experience in helping clients to shape and deliver technology enabled change that delivers value, security, agility and efficiency. You have developed enterprise level technology strategies and contributed to the definition of the associated programs of work. You have experience of delivering complex architectural solutions on cloud or hybrid environments and also the integration of new platforms into the wider enterprise You should have experience across disciplines, for example: business analysis, systems thinking, solution architecture, technical architecture, data architecture and data science. You have knowledge of a variety of systems thinking and systems integration approaches and techniques, and the ability to apply them to understand, frame and solve problems. You must have a strong knowledge of traditional platform delivery approaches, technologies and op models, and a thorough appreciation of the capabilities of the major cloud platforms - Azure, GCP but particular depth, skills and experience in AWS. You understand, and can balance, the trade offs in using "one size fits all" vs "landing zone specific" solutions. You must understand the importance of both enterprise MI, for long term decision making, and (near) real time observability for operations. You should have an appreciation of different operating models associated with both legacy and cloud environments, and be able to contribute to op model design and implementation. You can manage technical reviews and assessments of platform strategy, roadmaps, data models, cloud integration and migration tools. You are a team player that thrives in a diverse culture, inspiring and motivating others. Ideally you will hold recognised industry qualifications appropriate to the role and your seniority. You must be a practitioner more than a theorist. You are passionate about technology, but thrive in multi disciplinary teams. You must be highly credible in front of both client and your colleagues. You will act as a source of support for customers, throughout the transformation journey, building relationships and helping to ensure the successful implementation of major change. Key Responsibilities: As a Manager at KPMG we will expect you to: Have strong hands on skills in a relevant technical area Be comfortable running technical workstreams within larger projects Provide highly credible and informative thought leadership, based on real life experience. Design roadmaps, implementation strategies, transformation plans and solution architectures. Provide broad and detailed insight across a range of technology areas including integration and hybrid hosting scenarios. Work with colleagues to maximise the use of our knowledge and experience. Leverage your overarching expertise and network to generate new client opportunities Drive the development of propositions and assets, bringing a National Security perspective to them. Share knowledge - coaching and advising colleagues. Develop strong client relationships with client stakeholders, to understand their business problems, and identify commercial opportunities for KPMG. Base Location The role will preferably be based at our London, Manchester of Bristol offices, though others will be considered. Note, however, that client constraints may result in a requirement to be on client site for a significant proportion of the week (depending on project). Significant travel within the UK may be required. With offices across the UK, we are part of a global network of firms providing Audit, Tax & Law, Consulting, and Technology Services to diverse clients. They provide us with a strong sense of identity, ensuring we can grow stronger. They bind us together, across our different backgrounds and cultures, and are common to each of us. Explore more about why Our Values matter. From role sharing and flexible start and finish times to home working, we'll try and support the flexible work patterns that best suit you. We're committed to creating an inclusive environment where all colleagues thrive and reach their full potential, whatever their identity or background. We're a member of the Business Disability Forum so please get in touch if you'd like to discuss any adjustments that you might need in the application process - and if you are successful beyond this. We're a recognised leader in the Government's scheme. We offer a Guaranteed Interview Scheme for all experienced professional opportunities.

The reality for many, however, is that adoption of technologies such as cloud adds additional technologies and capabilities, drives divergence in operating models, often splits business processes across multiple tech stacks in different landing zones and, overall, adds significant complexity to the enterprise estate. The platform architect must make sense of this new complexity, and be able to tame it through judicious use of both old and new technologies coupled with "hybrid" processes that address the needs of both the legacy and the new platform environments. They must have a strong knowledge of both the traditional enterprise landscape, as well as a thorough appreciation of the major cloud platforms and the opportunities, capabilities and pitfalls they present. Skills, Qualifications and Experience Required We are seeking developing technical leaders who can communicate and manage relationships with senior stakeholders, build compelling transformation journeys and be a key player in their delivery. You will have proven experience in helping clients to shape and deliver technology enabled change that delivers value, security, agility and efficiency. You have developed enterprise level technology strategies and contributed to the definition of the associated programs of work. You have experience of delivering complex architectural solutions on cloud or hybrid environments and also the integration of new platforms into the wider enterprise You should have experience across disciplines, for example: business analysis, systems thinking, solution architecture, technical architecture, data architecture and data science. You have knowledge of a variety of systems thinking and systems integration approaches and techniques, and the ability to apply them to understand, frame and solve problems. You must have a strong knowledge of traditional platform delivery approaches, technologies and op models, and a thorough appreciation of the capabilities of the major cloud platforms - Azure, GCP but particular depth, skills and experience in AWS. You understand, and can balance, the trade offs in using "one size fits all" vs "landing zone specific" solutions. You must understand the importance of both enterprise MI, for long term decision making, and (near) real time observability for operations. You should have an appreciation of different operating models associated with both legacy and cloud environments, and be able to contribute to op model design and implementation. You can manage technical reviews and assessments of platform strategy, roadmaps, data models, cloud integration and migration tools. You are a team player that thrives in a diverse culture, inspiring and motivating others. Ideally you will hold recognised industry qualifications appropriate to the role and your seniority. You must be a practitioner more than a theorist. You are passionate about technology, but thrive in multi disciplinary teams. You must be highly credible in front of both client and your colleagues. You will act as a source of support for customers, throughout the transformation journey, building relationships and helping to ensure the successful implementation of major change. Key Responsibilities: As a Manager at KPMG we will expect you to: Have strong hands on skills in a relevant technical area Be comfortable running technical workstreams within larger projects Provide highly credible and informative thought leadership, based on real life experience. Design roadmaps, implementation strategies, transformation plans and solution architectures. Provide broad and detailed insight across a range of technology areas including integration and hybrid hosting scenarios. Work with colleagues to maximise the use of our knowledge and experience. Leverage your overarching expertise and network to generate new client opportunities Drive the development of propositions and assets, bringing a National Security perspective to them. Share knowledge - coaching and advising colleagues. Develop strong client relationships with client stakeholders, to understand their business problems, and identify commercial opportunities for KPMG. Base Location The role will preferably be based at our London, Manchester of Bristol offices, though others will be considered. Note, however, that client constraints may result in a requirement to be on client site for a significant proportion of the week (depending on project). Significant travel within the UK may be required. With offices across the UK, we are part of a global network of firms providing Audit, Tax & Law, Consulting, and Technology Services to diverse clients. They provide us with a strong sense of identity, ensuring we can grow stronger. They bind us together, across our different backgrounds and cultures, and are common to each of us. Explore more about why Our Values matter. From role sharing and flexible start and finish times to home working, we'll try and support the flexible work patterns that best suit you. We're committed to creating an inclusive environment where all colleagues thrive and reach their full potential, whatever their identity or background.

Senior Technical Product Manager, Observability London About Nscale Nscale is taking on the hyperscalers by building a vertically integrated GenAI cloud platform. We own the data centres, software, and applications that power today's AI stack using sustainable technology solutions. We thrive on a culture of relentless innovation, ownership, and accountability, where every team member takes pride in their work and drives it with excellence and urgency. As an Nscaler, you'll build trust through openness and transparency, where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Collaboration is key, and we work together swiftly and respectfully, embracing adaptability and resilience in all we do. About the role Technical Product Managers at Nscale own the definition, delivery, and ongoing evolution of a slice of the Nscale platform, partnering with engineering, design, and go-to-market to turn customer and operational problems into shippable outcomes. As a Senior Technical Product Manager for Deployments, you own the tooling that turns a signed contract into live GPU capacity: automating LLD generation from HLD, predicting delivery risk before it becomes a slip, and standardising how every deployment is planned and executed. You partner daily with Design Engineering, Project Controls, Deployment PMs, Data Centre Operations, and Fleet Software to replace spreadsheets, Visio diagrams, and tribal knowledge with a control plane that makes on time, on spec delivery the default. You own a major product area and drive multi quarter initiatives that move design cycle time, schedule adherence, and time to RFS across our global fleet. Senior Technical Product Manager, Deployment Tooling 1 What you'll be doing Own the roadmap for Nscale's deployment tooling: automated design generation, a predictive delivery control tower, and a standardised deployment blueprint. With Design Engineering, build systems that auto generate LLD artifacts - Floor Layout, DH Layout, Rack Elevation, BE & FE Network Design, Cable Tray Layout - from HLD inputs. With Project Controls, build a control tower that models milestone need by dates relative to material docking and flags planned vs actual slips on design completion, PO placement, and RFS DC readiness via RAG indicators. With Deployment PMs, build the blueprint that auto generates on contract signing, encodes task sequencing and dependencies, and lets PMs manage exceptions instead of rebuilding plans per site. Shadow design reviews, deployment stand ups, and site bring ups to turn recurring manual effort and handoff friction into platform capabilities. Define and drive the metrics that matter: design cycle time, schedule adherence, time to RFS, on time milestone %, rework rate, forecast accuracy. Partner with engineering on architecture across DCIM, network design, provisioning, ERP/PO, and scheduling integrations. Turn slip reviews and post deployment retros into product commitments so the same class of delay doesn't recur. Mentor junior PMs and raise the bar for PRDs, reviews, and product decisions across the team. What you need 5-8 years in product management, with a track record owning significant areas in infrastructure, platform, project controls, or operations facing products. Strong technical fluency: you can lead architecture and trade off discussions across design automation, workflow/orchestration engines, and DCIM/network/ERP integrations Experience building for operators and delivery teams (design engineers, project controllers, PMs, SREs, DC technicians) and a genuine appetite for their workflows. A record of moving ambiguous operational problems to shipped outcomes that measurably improve predictability, cycle time, or standardisation. Excellent written and verbal communication across engineers, operators, and executives. Nice to haves Degree in CS or engineering, or prior experience as an engineer, design engineer, or project controls practitioner. Hands on background in data centre deployment, bare metal provisioning, network design automation, or capital project delivery. DCIM and design tooling: Sunbird, Nlyte, Hyperview, Device42, NetBox, Nautobot, RackTables, or openDCIM - especially for auto generating rack elevations, floor layouts, and cable/tray docs. Network fabric automation: Juniper Apstra / Data Center Director, Cisco NSO, Arista CloudVision, or in house HLD LLD stacks. Bare metal provisioning: OpenStack Ironic, MAAS, Tinkerbell, or similar. Project controls and control tower tooling: Oracle Primavera P6 / Cloud / Unifier, Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, or purpose built delivery control towers. ITSM: Jira Service Management, ServiceNow, Zendesk, or Freshservice. Observability: Grafana, Prometheus, or Datadog - ideally with KPIs and dashboards for delivery programs. Familiarity with GPU / accelerated compute, data centre operations, or hyperscaler style deployment at scale. Experience in high growth environments where the product is being built alongside the fleet. Join Nscale as we build a world class AI cloud platform. If you're excited about owning the software that turns contracts into live GPU capacity, we'd love to hear from you! At Nscale, we are committed to fostering an inclusive, diverse, and equitable workplace. We believe that a variety of perspectives enriches our work environment, and we encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds, experiences, and abilities. We strongly encourage applications from people of colour, the LGBTQ+ community, people with disabilities, neurodivergent people, parents, carers, and people from lower socio economic backgrounds. If there's anything we can do to accommodate your specific situation, please let us know. The responsibilities outlined in this job description are not exhaustive and are intended to provide a general overview of the position. The employee may be required to perform additional duties, tasks, and responsibilities as assigned by management, consistent with the skills and qualifications required for the role.

With Design Engineering, build systems that auto generate LLD artifacts - Floor Layout, DH Layout, Rack Elevation, BE & FE Network Design, Cable Tray Layout - from HLD inputs. With Project Controls, build a control tower that models milestone need by dates relative to material docking and flags planned vs actual slips on design completion, PO placement, and RFS DC readiness via RAG indicators. With Deployment PMs, build the blueprint that auto generates on contract signing, encodes task sequencing and dependencies, and lets PMs manage exceptions instead of rebuilding plans per site. Shadow design reviews, deployment stand ups, and site bring ups to turn recurring manual effort and handoff friction into platform capabilities. Define and drive the metrics that matter: design cycle time, schedule adherence, time to RFS, on time milestone %, rework rate, forecast accuracy. Partner with engineering on architecture across DCIM, network design, provisioning, ERP/PO, and scheduling integrations. Turn slip reviews and post deployment retros into product commitments so the same class of delay doesn't recur. Mentor junior PMs and raise the bar for PRDs, reviews, and product decisions across the team. What you need 5-8 years in product management, with a track record owning significant areas in infrastructure, platform, project controls, or operations facing products. Strong technical fluency: you can lead architecture and trade off discussions across design automation, workflow/orchestration engines, and DCIM/network/ERP integrations Experience building for operators and delivery teams (design engineers, project controllers, PMs, SREs, DC technicians) and a genuine appetite for their workflows. A record of moving ambiguous operational problems to shipped outcomes that measurably improve predictability, cycle time, or standardisation. Excellent written and verbal communication across engineers, operators, and executives. Nice to haves Degree in CS or engineering, or prior experience as an engineer, design engineer, or project controls practitioner. Hands on background in data centre deployment, bare metal provisioning, network design automation, or capital project delivery. DCIM and design tooling: Sunbird, Nlyte, Hyperview, Device42, NetBox, Nautobot, RackTables, or openDCIM - especially for auto generating rack elevations, floor layouts, and cable/tray docs. Network fabric automation: Juniper Apstra / Data Center Director, Cisco NSO, Arista CloudVision, or in house HLD LLD stacks. Bare metal provisioning: OpenStack Ironic, MAAS, Tinkerbell, or similar. Project controls and control tower tooling: Oracle Primavera P6 / Cloud / Unifier, Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, or purpose built delivery control towers. ITSM: Jira Service Management, ServiceNow, Zendesk, or Freshservice. Observability: Grafana, Prometheus, or Datadog - ideally with KPIs and dashboards for delivery programs. Familiarity with GPU / accelerated compute, data centre operations, or hyperscaler style deployment at scale. Experience in high growth environments where the product is being built alongside the fleet. Join Nscale as we build a world class AI cloud platform. If you're excited about owning the software that turns contracts into live GPU capacity, we'd love to hear from you!
