Solution Architect – Defence Digital Programme
Reading | Hybrid (2 Days Per Week) | Permanent or Outside IR35 Contract
An opportunity to join one of the world's most ambitious next-generation defence and digital transformation programmes.
This organisation is delivering secure digital capability across a long-term international programme that will shape the future of defence technology for decades to come. Working alongside government and industry partners, you'll play a critical role assuring highly secure digital environments spanning cloud and classified infrastructure.
This is an opportunity to influence architecture rather than simply implement it, working across Azure cloud, secure on-premise networks, and high-assurance digital platforms supporting mission-critical systems.
