About the role We are looking for a Platform / Solution Architect to support the delivery team on GCP and to take the development environment into its next phase. The role combines hands-on architectural design with strong stakeholder navigation across a large, complex organisation. Key Responsibilities: · Own architectural design and design decisions for the development environment on GCP · Design a generic, reusable platform layer that new projects can adopt, abstracting away common infrastructure and integration concerns · Align design and timelines with other project and product teams, gathering the input required to make sound architectural choices · Secure the support the delivery team needs — organisational networking is a core part of the role, not a side activity · Contribute to the governance model discussion around platform ownership and adoption (driven by another team; alignment required) · Support data and AI/ML use cases where relevant, including pipeline and integration design · Provide light Product Owner support where needed to keep the team unblocked · Maintain and extend the existing communication and stakeholder map Requirements: · Proven experience as a Platform Architect, Solution Architect or Technical Lead on cloud platform initiatives · Strong GCP expertise — this is the target platform and the primary technical requirement · Demonstrated experience building generic, reusable platform capabilities rather than one-off project solutions · Excellent communication skills and tenacity — the ability to identify the right people in a large, complex organisation and persist until the required information is obtained · Solution and systems design, including data modelling and systems integration · Experience aligning architecture and timelines across multiple product and project teams · Comfortable operating with incomplete information and driving clarity through stakeholder engagement · Strong Python · English at professional working level (C1) Nice to have: · Infrastructure as code (Terraform) and CI/CD pipeline design; DevOps practices · Exposure to platform governance models and adoption frameworks · Experience delivering AI/ML or NLP solutions into production — not only proof-of-concept work · MLOps / ModelOps experience, including maturity assessment of DataOps–DevOps–MLOps setups · Architecture modelling notation (e.g. ArchiMate) and structured analysis and design techniques · AWS or Azure exposure alongside GCP · Experience in Product Owner or delivery-facing roles · Telco domain experience · Coaching and mentoring of junior engineers · Critical Success Factors Perks and benefits: Comprehensive benefits - enjoy Udemy for Business, private medical care, Multisport card, veterinary package, language lessons, and shopping vouchers.
