We are currently recruiting for an exciting Solutions Architect contract opportunity working on a new, greenfield digital solution within the energy sector.
This is a 3 month contract, Inside IR35, with 1 day per week onsite. Remote working will also be considered for the right candidate.
This is a great opportunity for an Architect who enjoys working at the early stages of a project, where there’s an opportunity to assess the technology landscape, shape the direction and recommend the right architectural approach rather than simply delivering against an established blueprint.
What will you be doing?
The role is currently more focused on architecture, assessment and technical direction than hands‑on delivery. You’ll be helping to establish the pathway for a new solution, assessing options, understanding technical implications and making clear recommendations.
You’ll be involved in areas such as:
- Shaping the architecture for a new/greenfield digital solution
- Assessing and recommending appropriate technology and architectural approaches
- Providing the technical pathway from Proof of Concept through to potential production
- Evaluating the implications of a migration from Snowflake/Azure towards Databricks
- Understanding the impact of the migration strategy and whether existing dependencies could affect delivery
- Working extensively with API architecture – this is particularly important for the role
- Supporting PoCs and prototypes where required, although the key focus is on providing the architectural direction and roadmap
- Translating complex technical considerations into clear recommendations for both technical and business stakeholders
- Exploring how emerging technologies such as AI/ML and Digital Twins could be incorporated into the solution
The key technical experience we’re looking for:
- Strong Solutions Architecture experience, particularly within greenfield environments
- Strong API architecture and design experience
- Experience with Azure and ideally exposure to Databricks migrations/implementations
- Experience working with Snowflake and understanding data platform migration considerations
- Strong understanding of modern cloud-native architectures
- Experience assessing technology options and making architectural recommendations
- Ability to understand the bigger picture and provide a clear technical pathway
- Experience with AI/ML, Digital Twins or other emerging technologies would be highly desirable
- Energy sector experience would be a strong advantage
