Job Title: Architectural Subject Matter Expert (SME) - Data Centers
Company: Confidential Client
Location: London, UK / European Travel
About the Role
We are partnering with a premier global digital infrastructure developer seeking an experienced Architectural SME to provide client-side expertise across the development, design, and delivery of hyperscale Data Centre projects throughout Europe. This is not a production design role; rather, you will act as the trusted internal architectural authority to review, challenge, and assure designs from external partners, ensuring they meet strict technical, commercial, and operational standards.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
