About this opportunity
Join our team in Edinburgh to strengthen our solutions architect community with cloud-based expertise!
You'll have a strong background in architecting and designing services running in public cloud, particularly Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and extensive experience with JavaScript frameworks, native application development, user identity and authentication management, and data management in the public cloud.
Our mission is to help customers feel confident and in control of their finances, now and into the future. We're building a new future for financial wellbeing, helping customers understand the big picture and making it easy for them to protect what matters! Our services are accessible for everyone, no matter what their income is or how comfortable they are with financial jargon, and we work hard to make sure we're there for customers in the moments that matter. We're bold and we love to experiment. We're not afraid to try out new ways of working and we encourage teams to be flexible and adaptive.
Day to day, you'll be:
-
Work collaboratively as part of a community of experienced solutions architects taking personal ownership and leadership on a portfolio of solutions.
-
Liaise with Engineering teams and other collaborators such as Product Owners, Security and Enterprise Architecture, to ensure that designs are appropriate to the business need and aligned to group strategy.
-
Create scalable and secure solutions with an emphasis on web and app solutions deployed to the public cloud.
-
Develop data management solutions that elevate the customer experience of using our services.
-
Undertake and manage required governance, service introduction and audit compliance tasks.
