Who You Are And How You'll Make An Impact
You'll have significant experience delivering complex technology solutions within enterprise organisations, combining deep technical expertise with the ability to influence customers and engineering teams alike. You have an excellent understanding of public cloud concepts, with deep hands-on expertise in at least one hyperscaler, preferably AWS or Microsoft Azure, and are comfortable designing enterprise-scale architectures using modern architectural patterns.
You understand contemporary software engineering practices and can confidently discuss engineering principles, delivery approaches and technical decision-making with both engineers and senior stakeholders. You also have a good understanding of AI technologies and architectural patterns, ideally having helped deliver AI-enabled solutions within regulated enterprise environments where security, governance and compliance are critical.
Alongside your delivery experience, you have a proven track record of supporting consultancy sales and bid activities, helping shape technical solutions that are commercially compelling and technically robust. Experience working within complex public sector organisations would be highly advantageous.

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Above all, you're naturally curious about enterprise technology, enjoy solving challenging problems and thrive in environments where collaboration, technical excellence and customer outcomes are equally important.
A day in the life
No two days are the same. You might begin the morning leading an architecture workshop with a customer, helping them shape the technical direction of a critical transformation programme. Later, you'll work alongside delivery teams to unblock complex engineering challenges, review solution designs or coach engineers through architectural decisions.
In the afternoon, you could be supporting a bid for a new customer opportunity, collaborating with commercial colleagues to develop a compelling technical approach before joining a customer meeting to discuss cloud strategy, AI opportunities or modern engineering practices. Throughout the day, you'll balance hands-on technical leadership with strategic thinking, ensuring every engagement reflects Tecknuovo's high standards of engineering excellence and consultancy.
