Role: Solution Architect Location: Remote Working Arrangement: Occasional travel to national and international client sites Salary: £65- 120k (Mid, Senior, Principal levels available) SC clearance is essential. You've built solutions that solve complex technical problems. Now you're looking for the opportunity to influence something much bigger. You've probably spent years working across defence, government, or other highly secure environments, helping customers solve difficult challenges through technology. You're comfortable leading architecture discussions, working with senior stakeholders, and translating ambitious operational goals into solutions that can actually be delivered. More importantly, you're interested in where defence technology is heading next. If that's you, this could be a fantastic opportunity. I'm working with a defence technology organisation that's investing heavily in the future of defence capability through experimentation, innovation, and emerging technologies. They're looking for Mid, Senior and Principal level Solution Architects to lead some of their most exciting programmes, helping shape how the next generation of defence capability is designed, tested, demonstrated, and ultimately delivered into operational use. This is a strategic, hands-on role where you'll sit at the intersection of architecture, systems engineering, customer engagement, and innovation. Rather than focusing on a single programme, you'll work across a portfolio of defence experimentation and demonstration activities, helping customers understand what's possible, designing complex technical solutions, and ensuring innovative concepts can successfully transition into operational capability. Artificial Intelligence is a major part of that journey. You'll be working with programmes exploring AI, machine learning, autonomous systems, human-machine teaming, digital engineering, cloud technologies, cyber capabilities, advanced communications, and multi-domain integration. They're looking for someone who can understand both the technology and the operational challenges, helping customers adopt emerging capabilities in ways that deliver real value rather than simply following the latest trends. This is also a highly customer-facing role. You'll build relationships with senior stakeholders across the MOD, Strategic Command, DE&S, Dstl, NATO organisations, allied nations, and industry partners, becoming a trusted technical advisor throughout the lifecycle of major defence programmes. Alongside leading technical direction, you'll help shape future opportunities, contribute to bids and business development activities, mentor Solution Architects across the organisation, and provide technical leadership that influences both customers and internal engineering teams. From a technical perspective, they're looking for experience across areas such as: * Solution and systems architecture * Defence capability development and experimentation * Enterprise integration and systems engineering * AI and emerging technologies * Cloud platforms and modern digital engineering * Multi-domain integration and command-and-control environments * Cyber security and Secure by Design principles * Architecture governance and technical leadership Experience working with MOD, NATO, multinational defence programmes, or complex government environments will be particularly valuable, especially if you've been involved in experimentation activities, operational assessments, capability demonstrations, or technology transition programmes. This role would suit someone who enjoys thinking strategically while staying close enough to technology to influence meaningful technical decisions. You'll be given the opportunity to shape architecture strategy, lead technical teams, develop customer relationships, and play a significant part in how future defence capabilities are delivered. If you're looking for a role where you can combine technical leadership, innovation, customer engagement, and architecture, while working with some of the most exciting technologies currently shaping defence, this is definitely one worth exploring.
