Overview

Solution Architect — Hybrid - Cardiff, with Remote Flexibility • £70,000 - £80,000 + Bonus + Benefits

What You'll Do

  • Are you a seasoned developer ready to take that next step into architectural leadership? As a Solution Architect, you'll remain close to the code while shaping scalable, cloud-native solutions and influencing technical strategy across multiple teams.
  • You'll work closely with engineers, product leads, and stakeholders to design service-oriented and event-driven architectures that solve real business challenges.
  • This is a great opportunity for a Principal Developer looking to grow into a more strategic, high-impact role—without losing touch with hands-on delivery.

What You'll Bring

  • Strong background in software development and solution design, ideally within cloud-first environments (AWS preferred)
  • Practical experience designing distributed systems and leading on architectural decisions
  • Hands-on familiarity with containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes), DevOps, and modern CI/CD pipelines
  • Excellent coding standards, documentation practices, and technical mentoring skills
  • A passion for scalable, secure, and well-governed systems
  • Confidence in translating complex technical ideas to both engineering and non-technical stakeholders

Why You Should Apply

This role blends architectural influence with practical development leadership. It''s ideal for someone looking to evolve beyond senior engineering into broader technical ownership—without stepping too far away from delivery. You''ll join a forward-thinking team, benefit from flexible hybrid working, and have a clear pathway for growth.
