We are recruiting for a senior Platform Architect in a hybrid role based in the Reading area, with 1-2 days per week on site. This is a senior opportunity with a salary of up to £115,000 plus bonus. We are looking for someone who has moved beyond implementation and enjoys solving platform-wide challenges in an enterprise environment. This role is not hands-on engineering; instead, we offer the chance to own platform architecture, guide strategy, and support the continued evolution of a critical Kubernetes platform.
