This Solutions Architect role will be responsible for delivering innovative digital solutions using a cloud-first approach with modern technologies to enable our users to achieve their goals.

This will be quite a unique “hands on” role so someone who enjoys getting stuck in and helping build digital solutions as well as design them would be perfect. We really want someone who is going to bring in some fresh thinking and expertise into our growing Digital Team!

What you’ll be doing…

  • Work with the Digital team to develop architectural blueprints, roadmaps, policies, principles, standards, patterns and other artefacts to support and develop the Enterprise Architecture capability
  • Working with a range of stakeholders across the University of Exeter and delivery partners sharing knowledge, decisions, patterns and lessons learnt to improve productivity and enhance capabilities.
  • Working in the Digital platform we are cloud centric - so this varies from a standard solutions architect role where you may be used to more traditional methodologies. In this regard some of the key accountabilities revolve around the cloud (one of the big 3: AWS, Azure, GCP), research and keeping up to date with the latest trends, services and tech. In the cloud, things tend to move more rapidly, so understanding all the latest services and how to benefit from them is key to delivering the best solutions

Just some of the benefits that come with this role include:

  • 33 days annual leave +bank holidays
  • Full university USS pension scheme – Over 21.4% employer contributions!
  • Access to the latest technologies and platforms
  • Excellent personal and professional development opportunities through
  • Flexible working
  • Loads of discounts at leading retailers including 10% off everything at the Co-op!
  • Onsite gyms on all of our campuses and a cycle to work scheme
  • Sector leading policies around maternity, adoption and shared parental leave(up to 26 weeks full pay), paternity leave (up to six weeks full pay) and a new Fertility Treatment Policy
  • Stunning campus locations in Exeter and Cornwall

We’re really looking for…

  • An experienced Cloud Architect with Hands- on AWS experience
  • Someone who is happy being hands on and getting involved with day to day Software Development
  • Demonstrable experience with: API Gateway / Glue / DMS / EventBridge / Kinesis / SNS / SQS / Cognito / VPC / Step Functions / Lambdas
  • Recent Devops experience would be ideal
  • Someone who is fired up to join our new digital team and help us carve out our new digital capability from scratch!
  • Someone who is not afraid to bring new ideas to table and who wants to make a massive positive impact on the future of education
  • We have a small but mighty team right now and we’re really proud of how the team is shaping up – so we want someone who is really positive and genuinely enjoys working together to solve problems!
  • Ability to break down barriers and build lasting relationships
