We’re supporting a leading UK engineering organisation modernising their cloud platform and embedding AI-first engineering practices into production systems.
They are hiring a hands‑on Solution Architect / Staff Engineer to lead the design and delivery of distributed systems built on .NET 8/9/10 and AWS serverless architecture.
What you’ll be doing
Architecting and building high‑scale .NET microservices on AWS Lambda
Leading API design and distributed system boundaries
Driving end‑to‑end delivery (no heavy hand‑offs)
AI Engineering is central to this role
You will actively work with:
Custom sub‑agents for architecture, review, DevOps and security
AI‑assisted CI/CD workflows via GitHub Actions
MCP (Model Context Protocol) based toolchains
This is a production engineering environment using AI as part of the SDLC, not a proof‑of‑concept lab.
You will need
Deep AWS serverless experience (Lambda, SQS, API Gateway, etc.)
Ability to operate as a hands‑on architect within a squad
Experience mentoring engineers and setting technical direction
Strong API design and distributed systems thinking
Why this role stands out
Real ownership from design to production
Active adoption of AI‑native engineering workflows
High autonomy, low bureaucracy environment
Strong focus on engineering quality and developer experience
