You'll work with senior technology leaders to establish standards, guide major transformation programmes and help modernise platforms across cloud and on-premise environments.

If you enjoy solving complex technical challenges, influencing architectural direction and enabling engineering teams to succeed, we'd love to hear from you.

What you'll be doing

You'll act as the architectural authority across enterprise infrastructure, including:
