Overview
We're looking for an experienced Technical Architect to join a multidisciplinary government team, helping shape the design and delivery of complex cloud-based platforms.
This is a hands-on architecture role focused on systems design rather than software development. You'll take user requirements, feature requests, and technical challenges and turn them into clear, implementable designs and technical specifications for engineering teams.

Work closely with software engineers, DevOps engineers, and data teams to ensure solutions are practical and deliverable
Produce architecture artefacts, system diagrams, and technical specifications
Support systems design across AWS cloud environments
Identify design issues and collaborate with engineering teams to resolve technical challenges
Ensure solutions align with modern cloud, containerisation, and Infrastructure as Code principles
Communicate effectively across both technical and non-technical stakeholdersWhat We're Looking For
Strong experience designing systems within AWS environments
Good understanding of: AWS services
Kubernetes
Docker
Terraform (Infrastructure as Code principles)
GitHub Actions / CI/CD
Experience producing detailed technical designs rather than purely high-level architecture
Strong collaboration skills across multidisciplinary technical teams
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Experience creating architecture documentation and system diagrams (Mermaid knowledge beneficial)Ideal Background
Previous experience as a: Technical Architect, Cloud Architect
DevOps Engineer moving into architecture
Cloud Engineer with architecture experience
Experience designing analytical or data platforms
Government experience desirable but not essential
