Solution Architect - Architectural Review - AWS / Serverless
1-Month Contract | Fully Remote | Outside IR35
I’m working with a fintech organisation looking for an experienced Solution Architect to undertake a technical architecture and design review of a recently developed, AWS-based financial platform. This is a short, focused engagement initially for 1 month, with potential to extend depending on the findings and subsequent work required.
The Role
You’ll independently review the architecture and engineering work delivered to date, assessing whether the platform is appropriately designed for scalability, resilience, security, and long-term maintainability.
The environment is heavily AWS and serverless, so we’re looking for someone who combines strong architecture credentials with enough technical depth to properly challenge engineering decisions.
You’ll be responsible for:
- Conducting an end-to-end architectural and technical design review
- Reviewing the existing AWS infrastructure and serverless architecture
- Assessing architectural decisions around AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, APIs, and wider cloud services
- Evaluating scalability, resilience, performance, security, and maintainability
- Identifying architectural risks, technical debt, and potential design gaps
- Validating whether current engineering decisions align with recognised architecture best practices
- Providing clear, pragmatic recommendations and a roadmap for improvement
- Working closely with technical stakeholders to communicate findings and challenge decisions constructively
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.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What We’re Looking For
- Experienced Solution Architect with a strong technical/engineering background
- Extensive hands-on knowledge of AWS architecture and infrastructure
- Strong experience designing and reviewing serverless architectures
- Deep understanding of AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, and API-driven systems
- Proven experience conducting architecture and technical design reviews
- Ability to assess existing engineering work rather than simply designing greenfield solutions
- Strong understanding of scalability, resilience, security, and cloud architecture best practices
- TOGAF certification, BCS Architecture certification, or equivalent Enterprise Architecture credentials
- Previous fintech, financial services, or high-volume transactional platform experience would be highly beneficial but not essential

This would suit a technically strong architect who can quickly get under the hood of an existing AWS platform, independently assess what has been built, and provide clear recommendations on where the architecture is strong, where the risks sit, and what needs to change.
