In everything we do, we work to one aim. To make digital experiences which are effortless and secure.

So we organise ourselves around three principles: engineer, protect, and operate. We engineer simple solutions, we protect our customers, and we operate smarter.

This role is based in the United Kingdom and as such all normal working days must be carried out in the United Kingdom.

  • This is an opportunity for an experienced Solution Architect to help us define the high level technical architecture and design for your assigned scope that provides solutions to deliver great business outcomes and meets our longer term strategy
  • You’ll define and communicate a shared technical and architectural vision of end-to-end designs that may span multiple platforms and domains

What you'll do

We’ll look to you to influence and promote the collaboration across platform and domain teams on the solution delivery. Partnering with platform and domain teams, you’ll elaborate the solution and its interfaces, validating technology assumptions, evaluating implementation alternatives, and creating the continuous delivery pipeline.

You’ll also provide analysis of options and deliver end-to-end solution designs using the relevant building blocks, as well as producing designs for features that allow frequent incremental delivery of customer value.

On top of this, you’ll be:

  • Owning the technical design issues and driving resolution through the iteration of the technical solution design
  • Participating in activities to shape requirements, validating designs and prototypes to deliver change that aligns with the target architecture
  • Promoting adaptive design practices to drive collaboration of feature teams around a common technical vision using continuous feedback
  • Making recommendations of potential impacts to existing and prospective customers of the latest technology and customer trends
The skills you'll need

As a Solution Architect, you’ll bring expert knowledge of application architecture, and in business data or infrastructure architecture with working knowledge of industry architecture frameworks such as TOGAF or ArchiMate. You’ll also need an understanding of Agile and contemporary methodologies with experience of working in Agile teams.

On top of this, you’ll bring:

  • Knowledge of hardware, software, applications, systems engineering, cloud, event streaming, microservices and APIs
  • Hands on AWS experience
  • Experience of defining application architectures and roadmaps for complex solutions working for all layers of the technical architecture
  • A background in delivering solutions that securely span a complex infrastructure domain
  • Experience of systems development change lifecycles, best practices and approaches
  • The ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to peers and leadership level colleagues
