What will your key responsibilities include?

As our Solution Architect, you will drive the modernisation and simplification of our application portfolio through cloud-native solutions that are secure, scalable and high-performing. You will partner with internal and external stakeholders to design and develop technology solutions that deliver the expected business outcomes at an acceptable level of risk.

Considered an expert in cloud solution architecture, you will engage with our business and technology partners to understand their needs, prepare deliverables that clearly articulate the value proposition of the proposed technology changes and develop artefacts that support strategic and operational decision-making, while ensuring new and enhanced digital solutions are implemented and operate in line with agreed decisions.

• Strategic Influence: Architect high-impact cloud-native application modernisation solutions.
• Collaboration & Leadership: Engage with C-level executives, senior leaders, IT teams, and business units to drive innovation and technical excellence.
• Career Growth: Elevate your expertise with exposure to state-of-the-art architecture frameworks, large-scale transformation programs, and engineering best practices.

As a forward thinker, you will also be passionate about maintaining up-to-date knowledge on industry trends and taking an innovative approach to solution design. By proposing new ways of engaging with digital technologies, you will help the NGM Group maximise the value of its investments in the cloud and associated capabilities.

A senior technology professional with significant exposure to mature architecture practices as part of a customer-oriented business environment with relevant experience in:

• Cloud-native solution architecture development with focus on application migration and modernisation.
• Stakeholder collaboration as a trusted advisor in cloud engineering excellence.
• Driving the adoption of cloud-native services, DevOps and security best practices at scale.
• Web and mobile application development and system integration
• Digital security technologies (such as Entra ID, OAuth, APIM, Passkeys, OTPs)

Further to your strong technical background, you will also be versed in documenting solutions using tools such as Visio Professional and Orbus, and capable of communicating with all levels of the organization while take a collaborative approach when working with the business.
