Lead architecture reviews and ensure adherence to design standards, technical patterns, and best practices. Produce solution blueprints, reference architectures, and technical documentation. Validate that all solutions support operational excellence, reliability, and maintainability. Cloud, Infrastructure, and Platform Architecture Define scalable service-based architectures leveraging cloud-native patterns. Work with the Lead SRE to ensure architectural designs account for: Observability (metrics, logs, tracing) Reliability (SLIs, SLOs, failover) CI/CD automation Infrastructure as code and environment design Drive optimisation of compute, storage, and network resources across cloud platforms (Azure/AWS). Engineering Collaboration & Technical Enablement Partner with Engineering Manager to ensure squads have clear architectural guidance. Support teams in breaking down complex technical problems into executable, scalable solutions. Provide architectural input into backlog refinement, release planning, and prioritisation. Act as the primary facilitator for cross-team architectural decision-making. Communicate architectural decisions, trade-offs, and risks to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Continuous Improvement & Technology Standards Define and maintain engineering standards, reusable patterns, and architectural principles. Champion continuous improvement across code quality, security, performance, and operational readiness. Foster a culture of technical excellence, experimentation, and innovation. Skills & Experience Essential: Proven experience as a Principal Architect, Solutions Architect, or Senior Engineer leading architectural decisions in complex systems. Strong understanding of AI technologies such as agents and models for both accelerated design & delivery as well as delivery of product capabilities. Strong background in cloud-native architectures (microservices, event-driven, distributed systems). Deep understanding of secure-by-design principles, threat modelling, cryptography basics, and modern security practices. Experience with API design, integration patterns, and domain-driven design (DDD) and Event Driven Design. Ability to influence without authority and collaborate effectively across engineering, SRE, product, and leadership teams. Exceptional communication skills, capable of simplifying complex technical topics for diverse stakeholders. Extensive experience with modern programming platforms and frameworks (e.g., Node.js, C# .NET, React). Strong grounding in cloud platforms (AWS/Azure), including networking, identity, observability, and cost optimisation. Desirable: Experience designing solutions in regulated or compliance-driven industries. Background in DevOps, platform engineering, or SRE practices.
