Maintain architecture integrity throughout delivery, adapting the design when requirements, constraints or implementation evidence change.
Engineering leadership & delivery management
Lead multidisciplinary engineering teams through mobilisation, design, build, test, release and transition to operations.
Turn the architecture into an actionable engineering plan, including work breakdown, sequencing, dependencies, estimates, technical milestones and delivery risks.
Balance hands-on technical involvement with delegation, enabling technical leads and senior engineers to own components and make decisions within agreed guardrails.
Monitor engineering progress, quality and technical risk; remove blockers and intervene early where delivery, architecture or capability gaps threaten outcomes.
Partner with delivery and product leadership on scope, priorities, capacity and trade-offs, ensuring commitments remain technically credible and achievable.
Support team formation, onboarding and capability planning, contributing to recruitment and the effective deployment of engineering talent.
Engineering excellence & team development
Establish and reinforce practical engineering standards for coding, testing, security, accessibility, documentation, source control, CI/CD and operational readiness.
Create an environment in which engineers receive clear direction, constructive feedback, coaching and opportunities to grow their technical leadership.
Mentor engineers and technical leads, strengthening design thinking, problem solving, ownership and communication across the team.
Promote effective peer review, design review and architecture governance proportionate to delivery risk and complexity.
Drive continuous improvement using delivery evidence, production insight and team feedback, with a focus on quality, flow, predictability and sustainable ways of working.
Encourage reuse through reference implementations, patterns, shared components and engineering accelerators where these provide demonstrable value.
Technology strategy, cloud & AI-enabled engineering
Evaluate and recommend technology stacks, frameworks, platforms and cloud services based on business fit, engineering capability, lifecycle, risk and total cost of ownership.
Apply appropriate modern architecture patterns, including API-first, event-driven, domain-oriented, serverless and microservices approaches, without treating any pattern as the default.
Guide cloud-native and hybrid solution design in line with reliability, security, FinOps and operational excellence principles.
Identify opportunities to use generative AI within solutions and engineering workflows where it creates measurable value.
Establish practical guardrails for AI-assisted architecture, development, testing, documentation and operations, maintaining traceability, governance and human oversight.
Contribute to technology modernisation, platform engineering and engineering productivity initiatives.
Stakeholder, governance & commercial contribution
Work closely with clients, product owners, delivery managers, security, operations and engineering stakeholders to align solution decisions with outcomes and constraints.
Communicate architecture and engineering decisions clearly to technical and non-technical audiences, including implications, risks and recommended actions.
Lead technical design workshops, architecture reviews and engineering deep dives, ensuring decisions are understood and followed through.
Contribute to pursuits, proposals, discovery, solution shaping, estimation, delivery planning and technical due diligence.
Provide transparent reporting on technical progress, architecture decisions, engineering health, dependencies and risks.
To qualify for the role, you must have
10+ years of software engineering experience, including significant responsibility for enterprise-scale solution delivery.
