Solution Architect (Data)

Help shape how data is used to drive better outcomes

We’re looking for a Solution Architect with a passion for data to design end-to-end solutions and help shape how data is managed, shared and used across a complex organisation.

This isn’t a pure data engineering role. You’ll operate as a core Solutions Architect, working across business and technology domains while bringing deeper expertise in data architecture, modelling and analytics.

What you’ll do

  • Design end-to-end solutions aligned to enterprise architecture, strategy and technology principles
  • Define data flows, pipelines, models and integration patterns
  • Shape data architecture across integration, analytics and operational systems
  • Enable reusable data products, shared datasets and scalable data solutions
  • Embed data governance, quality, lineage and lifecycle into solution designs
  • Work closely with engineering, product, delivery and business stakeholders
  • Identify opportunities to improve simplicity, reuse and value from data
  • Support the adoption of modern data platforms and analytics capabilities

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for a T-shaped architect with strong core solution architecture capability and deeper expertise in data.

You’ll ideally have:

  • Experience with modern data platforms (e.g. Azure Data Factory, Databricks)
  • Strong understanding of data architecture, including modelling, pipelines and integration
  • Experience with modern data platforms and technologies, such as cloud data platforms, streaming or analytics
  • Understanding of data governance, quality and lifecycle
  • Experience working in agile, collaborative delivery environments
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

You don’t need to come from a pure data engineering or BI background. What matters most is your ability to think end-to-end, design effective solutions and understand how data supports wider business objectives.

What you’ll get

  • The opportunity to shape how data is used as a strategic asset
  • A role combining architecture thinking with real delivery impact
  • Exposure to transformational programmes and strategic initiatives
  • A collaborative environment across architecture, engineering and business
  • Strong opportunities for learning and development

If you’re a Solution Architect who enjoys thinking about the bigger picture and has a particular strength or passion for data, we’d love to hear from you.
