About the Role

We're seeking a seasoned architect with a strong technical background, full life-cycle project experience, and excellent communication skills to bridge the gap between client and engineering teams.

You'll bring extensive experience operating within the technology industry across various ecosystems, including architectural styles such as microservices, modulith, serverless, and event-driven and data architectures.

You'll be proficient in architectural patterns including CQRS, event sourcing, service mesh, and the Saga pattern, amongst others.

You'll be flexible in the types of engagements undertaken - from leading the design of cutting-edge greenfield platforms to performing Delivery Assurance tasks in multi-vendor environments.

This includes experience with agile methodologies, DevOps practices, and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.

You should be able to advise on data principles, governance, patterns, and technologies, and how these shape or support architectures you design.

You'll have hands-on experience with public cloud services like AWS, Azure, or GCP.

Additionally, you will possess a deep knowledge and focus on security and privacy, including best practices and regulatory compliance (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA) and their applications in data platform implementations.

This also encompasses experience with identity and access management (IAM), encryption, and data masking techniques.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the design of cutting-edge greenfield platforms
  • Perform Delivery Assurance tasks in multi-vendor environments
  • Advise on data principles, governance, patterns, and technologies
  • Design and implement secure and private data platforms
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality solutions

About You

As one of our Architects, you will use your broad technical knowledge, full lifecycle project experience, and excellent communication skills to bridge the gap between client and internal delivery managers, enterprise architects, operations teams, UX consultants, and developers.

Successful applicants should be able to evidence the following:

  • Ability to be versatile, comfortable evaluating a new Open Source technology in a rapid technical spike, presenting to a CIO on a package selection, or working with a technical tester and a support desk engineer to debug a time-critical P1 issue
  • Confidently able to serve as a leader of an agile delivery organisation, you'll ensure that Agile processes and Product focused lifecycles deliver the right value, at the right time
  • As a technical authority, you lead by example and inspire delivery teams to create great software products that demonstrate the art of the possible
  • You enjoy working in the technology industry and are constantly adapting your skillset in line with industry trends
  • You have energy and a pragmatic, delivery-focused attitude that wins the respect of those around you and makes you a trusted technical advisor
  • You're willing, and capable of being hands-on when you need to be
  • You balance innovation and intellectual rigour with realism
  • You love technology and want to keep on learning, with a genuine interest in understanding the challenges your users face and how you can help them

Perks

  • Flexible benefits allowance – you choose how to spend your allowance (additional pension contributions, healthcare, dental, and more)
  • Industry-leading health and wellbeing plan - we partner with several wellbeing support functions to cater to each individual's need, including 24/7 GP services, mental health support, and other
  • Life Assurance (4 x annual salary)
  • 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
  • Hybrid working - Our roles are not fully remote as we take pride in the tight-knit communities we have created at our local offices
  • Discounts – we have preferred rates from dozens of retail, lifestyle, and utility brands
  • An industry-leading referral scheme with no limits on the number of referrals
  • Flexible holiday buy/sell option
  • Electric vehicle scheme
  • Training opportunities and incentives – we support professional certifications across engineering and non-engineering roles, including unlimited access to O'Reilly
  • Giving back – the ability to get involved nationally and regionally with partnerships to get people from diverse backgrounds into tech
  • You will become part of a squad with people from different areas within the business who will help you grow at BJSS
  • We have a busy social calendar that you can choose to join– quarterly town halls/squad nights out/weekends away with families included/office get-togethers
