Provide technical leadership to the architecture and development streams: guide design decisions, run technical workshops, review and sign off technical estimations, and mentor engineers. Communicate architecture vision and trade-offs to programme stakeholders and customer architecture boards, translating technical complexity into clear, actionable guidance. Engineer non-functional requirements with verifiable acceptance criteria. Design integration and interoperability solutions using API-first / contract-first principles and event-driven patterns. Design secure-by-design solutions, applying recognised application-security standards (e.g., OWASP ASVS, ISO/IEC 27001). Define SDLC standards and quality gates, in collaboration with the DevOps team. Requirements What do you need to succeed in this position?
