London Area, United Kingdom SR2 | Socially Responsible Recruitment | Certified B Corporation™ Full time

Principal Architect (6-month Fixed Term Contract)

£140,000

1 day per week in office (either London or Manchester)


These lot have been a client of mine for a couple of years now and continuing to do some really good things. They are a forward-thinking fintech bank utilising cutting-edge technology to empower customers financially. They have created a number of financial products for underserved market segments and their intermediary-focused tech platform simplifies buy-to-let mortgages for brokers and landlords. With over £150 million in strategic investment, they are set to grow even further over the coming years.


Where you come in:

They are looking for a Principal Architect to join the business on a 6 month FTC (fixed term contract) where you will play a crucial role in developing their technology strategy and enterprise architecture during their transition from a predominantly build-focused approach to a COTS/SaaS-driven model. You will collaborate with stakeholders across the company to identify and define the technology changes needed to support their business strategy effectively.


The day to day:

  • Support the definition of the technology strategy
  • Implement an Enterprise Architecture framework to support the development of an enterprise technology architecture
  • Define and maintain a current state enterprise technology architecture to identify areas of duplication, gaps and opportunities for technology to better support the business
  • Define the target enterprise technology architecture and ensure it is aligned with and supports delivery of the business and technology strategies
  • Work closely with Principal Engineers to define and maintain the enterprise technology architecture & roadmaps ensuring they support the business and technology goals (they are very good engineers)


Skills and Experience:

  • Experience introducing enterprise architecture frameworks (principles, standards, capability models, governance, process, etc.) to organizations.
  • Knowledge of business, application, data, and technology architecture.
  • To work effectively in environments undergoing change, adopting an iterative and adaptive approach.
  • Relationship-building and interpersonal skills, including teamwork, facilitation, influencing, and negotiation abilities with various stakeholders up to C-level.
  • To quickly understand new technologies, assess their suitability, and estimate the financial impact of adopting them.
  • Experience in financial services (preferred) or a similar regulated environment.


Technologies they use:

  • Cloud: AWS with a preference for native and serverless services (e.g., API Gateway, AWS Lambda, AWS Step Functions, Kinesis, DynamoDB)
  • Languages: Python for software engineering, Terraform, AWS SAM, and Cloud Formation for IaC
  • Database: SQL (Postgres) and NoSQL (DynamoDB) Primarily RESTful APIs with AWS API Gateway
  • CI/CD: GitHub Actions, AWS CodePipeline, Jenkins, and tools such as Trivy, Bandit, Sonarqube, Dependabot, etc.
  • Data: AWS services like S3, Redshift, Glue, Kinesis


The role is mostly remote but there is a requirement to head to either their London or North office once a week (some weeks there won’t be travel but 9 times out of 10 please expect this)


Whilst this is a 6 month FTC, there could be an option to extend this into a fulltime employment contract near the end of the initial period.


They are keen to make this hire asap.
