  • Experience with cloud adoption frameworks and cloud architecture, ideally across Azure and/or AWS.
  • Strong understanding of software architecture principles and design patterns.

  • Experience with integration technologies and architectural patterns, including API-led integration, event streaming and BFF.

  • Strong understanding of security best practices and secure solution design.

  • Experience designing highly available, resilient solutions with appropriate disaster recovery strategies.
  • Relevant architecture certifications such as TOGAF, Azure AZ-305 or AWS Solutions Architect Professional.

What's on Offer?
