AWS Solutions Architect

Location: Hybrid 1 day a week in Solihull (first 3 months will be 2/3 days in office)

Our client, a leading Proptech start-up, is looking for 2 x AWS Solutions Architects. The person will ideally have come from a small team and have been in a hands-on position as opposed to having worked for large organisations due to the difference in the way they operate.

This position offers a unique blend of professional growth, collaborative culture, and cutting-edge technology. As an AWS Solutions Architect, you will be at the forefront of designing and implementing robust cloud solutions, ensuring the resilience and efficiency of architectural practices.

Role Responsibilities:

  • Enhance the resilience and redundancy of current architecture.
  • Provide architectural design and support to engineering teams, adhering to best practices.
  • Implement improvements to both current and proposed architectural practices.
  • Develop, publish, and promote architectural policies and standards.
  • Ensure compliance with IT strategy, policies, and standards across all projects.
  • Document architectural designs and decisions for project work.
  • Support and guide software engineers in implementing cloud best practices.

Skills & Experience Required:

  • Excellent communication skills, capable of engaging with all business stakeholders.
  • In-depth knowledge of AWS network, core, and serverless services (AWS certifications preferred).
  • Understanding of the Well Architected Framework and security infrastructure best practices.
  • Hands-on experience in architecting, designing, and developing cloud solutions.
  • Strong grasp of architectural patterns.
  • Ability to translate business requirements to development teams and interpret technical feedback.

Your Journey to Success:

  • Within 1 Month: Familiarise yourself with AWS services and existing architectures, participate in initial solution designs, and integrate with engineering teams.
  • Within 3 Months: Embed into the Desktop Development team, take on significant project roles, and contribute to documentation and best practices.
  • Within 6 Months: Lead larger-scale projects, contribute to strategic planning for AWS adoption, and deepen your AWS expertise.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Flexible Working Policy: Enjoy a hybrid work model (2/3 days a week for first 3 months then down to 1 day a week in office).
  • Competitive Salary & Benefits: Including a 5.5% employer pension contribution, 20 days of annual leave (plus your birthday off), and additional days for each year worked, capped at 24 days.
  • Health & Wellbeing: Access to Gym Flex, annual flu vaccinations, and other health benefits.
  • Professional Development: Formal and in-house training, plus access to Go1 – the world\’s largest online learning library.
  • Social & Community Events: Regular local and company-wide social events, including Tucker Thursday – gourmet cuisine delivered monthly.
  • Retail Benefits: Participate in retail benefits and savings through our partner, Benni.
