Job Title: Software Architect

Salary: up to circa £80,000 depending on experience 

Location: Stevenage, Bristol or Bolton (we may be able to offer a relocation package for this role)

Dynamic (hybrid) working: typically, 3 to 4 days per week on-site, due to workload classification

The opportunity:

As a Software Architect, you will be the author of the full software architecture working with the software delivery teams to define and monitor the Structural and Temporal Architecture including the Internal/External interfaces of the product to meet requirements.

  • Identify, document and be responsible for the design drivers for the software solution e.g. real-time performance, safety, security, user experience, simplicity, reusability, flexibility.

  • Produce derived and emergent requirements capturing the assumptions and rationale.

  • Define the architecture to a point where the implementation decisions do not affect the integrity of the architecture.

Collaboration is critical within this role from working closely with other Architects, Technical Experts and wider engineering key contacts, supporting the wider design activities and reviews.

You will also have the opportunity to influence the SE Technology Strategy, Software Product Lines, new technologies, obsolescence, new methods and tools, by considering longer-term architectural strategies by being part of special interest groups and communities of interests.

You would be working with technology that is at the forefront of European missile system design, helping to develop safe, secure and reliable products that our customers can depend upon.

What we're looking for from you:

  • A strong technical practitioner, comfortable with making important architectural and design decisions.

  • Knowledge of modern and established software architecture techniques and design patterns.

  • Able to provide technical guidance, clearly articulate software architecture solutions and collaborate with software developers.

  • Able to communicate clearly and precisely at different levels, including influencing collaborators and internal customers.

  • An advocate for the benefits of key software engineering practices like continuous integration and good design.

  • Able to assess and communicate the trade-offs between various aspects of a Software Architecture with a focus on design rationale.

  • An understanding of software abstraction layers and the software stack.

  • The experience to define and influence the tools, frameworks and technologies used.

  • A strong programming background, preferably with experience in more than one language.
