Job Description

Job: Cloud Architect

Salary

£87,000

Location

West London (Heathrow)

Location

Hybrid – 3 days per week in the office

We are looking for a highly experienced Cloud Architect who is both architecturally strong and hands-on in development.

This role is not a pure architect or governance role. The candidate must still actively write production code and design complex distributed systems.

The client specifically wants a small number of exceptional engineers rather than many average profiles.

The MUST HAVES for this role are

• Strong AWS architecture and development experience
• Hands-on software development (Python, Java or .NET)
• Building event-driven systems (Kafka, EventBridge or similar)
• Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
• Microservices architecture
• REST API design
• SQL and NoSQL databases
• CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices
• Containers (Docker / Kubernetes)

Most importantly, candidates must demonstrate they can both design architecture and build it themselves.

Nice to Have

• Experience in aviation or travel technology
• Knowledge of AI / ML frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn)
• Experience with observability tools (Datadog, New Relic, CloudWatch)
• Multi-cloud experience (Azure or GCP)
• AWS certifications
• Open-source contributions

Candidate Profile

The ideal candidate will be

• a senior engineer or architect who still codes daily
• comfortable designing complex distributed systems
• able to operate in large enterprise environments
• strong communicator who can influence technical direction

Important

The client is prioritising quality over quantity and is specifically looking for top technical experts rather than general cloud engineers.

Please remember to submit all CVs via the portal as we don't accept CVs via email. Always include the candidate rate, notice period and interview availability (in GMT).

We would also like all submitted CVs unbranded and in Microsoft Word format please. When you submit a CV through the portal please use the candidate's email address.

Interview Etiquette

• Always have your camera switched on for a video call
• Ensure that you are in a quiet room where you won't be disturbed
• Always be punctual
• Read the job description and prepare for the interview by doing some research
