Description

Solution Architect

London Hybrid
Are you passionate about working with cutting edge technology and leading the design and engineering on projects delivering solutions that are central to our customer's missions?

We are recruiting for additional Solution Architects to join new agile development teams working for a Central Government customer.

Due to Covid-19, these roles will initially be undertaken from home, but once lockdown is lifted, it is expected that therewill be some regular travel to client site in London.


You'll enjoy working as part of a team, typically being the most senior technical person on a project working with other architects, engineers and business analysts to get the best out of the team, allowing everyone to contribute their skillsets.

Excellentcommunication skills are essential, both internally within your project, as well as externally to senior customer stakeholders to facilitate decision making and co-ordinate design activities with related teams.


Your experience will cover software design, infrastructure, delivery methods and engineering approaches, although you won't be expected to be an expert in them all.

Knowing enough to make informed decisions on the best approach to follow is expected, aswell as recognising when to use Waterfall vs Agile, PaaS vs IaaS or proof of concepts vs proven approaches.

You'll be empowered to make decisions but will be part of a community of solution architects and engineers to bounce ideas off of and be supported.


Not only will your team be directly making a huge impact upon the systems you work on, you'll be doing it for an organisation who makes a huge impact to the security of the UK.

  • Shaping and driving solution thinking for complex bids and delivery engagements (contracts worth £million+, and overall team sizes of more than 50)
  • Shaping solution designs following a structured methodology as appropriate to the project
  • Overseeing the implementation of the design in collaboration with other team members such as Application, Data and Security Architects
  • Ensuring the design meets key functional and in particular nonfunctional requirements, enabling through life scenarios of the solution to be satisfied
  • Working with customer technical authorities to ensure that they have a clear understanding of architecture and design proposals at an appropriate level
  • Working with Engineering teams to promote good practice in engineering methods, e.g. development, automation and testing
  • Retaining overall ownership of the solution through delivery and transition into operation
  • Directing estimation efforts to develop an understanding of potential solution costs and delivery timescales
