You will act as the principal architectural authority, translating high-level operational requirements into formal Statements of Requirements, designing modern API/data exchange standards, and ensuring compliance with strict public sector cloud and security guidelines. Key Responsibilities Architectural Leadership & Design Target State Architecture: Define and document the "To-Be" architecture for both the cloud-based Collection Management System and the Mobile Field Collection App in alignment with public sector digital standards. As-Is Review & Gap Analysis: Evaluate existing Legacy mechanisms (eg, flat-file data transfers) and propose modern alternatives (APIs, secure data pipelines, cloud-native integration). Requirements Definition: Author comprehensive technical Statements of Requirements to support market engagement and competitive tender processes for build and implementation phases. Design Oversight & Quality Assurance: Provide architectural oversight across the project life cycle from discovery through to implementation and testing, ensuring third-party vendor builds adhere to approved designs. Core Solution Scope Cloud Platform Management: Architect a resilient Google Cloud Platform (GCP) ecosystem to manage sampling distribution, workload assignment, data validation rules, analytical reporting, and target generation. Mobile & Offline Services: Architect an iOS mobile application architecture capable of offline data capture, handheld local data validation, image metadata capture (eg, product photo attachments/barcodes), and reliable background synchronization upon reconnecting. Identity & Security: Implement secure multi-tenant identity and access management (IAM) strategies supporting both internal enterprise Single Sign-On (SSO) and third-party partner access. Technical Stack & Mandatory Constraints Candidates must possess hands-on architecture experience within the following technological ecosystem: Domain - Required Technology/Constraint. Cloud Hosting - Google Cloud Platform (GCP) (UK Region) using Cloud-Native services. Infrastructure as Code (IaC) - HashiCorp Terraform. Development Languages - Python (Primary). CI/CD & Repository - Google Cloud Build, GitHub. Mobile Platform - iOS (Swift/Native or Cross-Platform framework). Identity & Access - Google Cloud IAM integrated with Microsoft Entra ID (SSO). Field Management Integration - Exposure to third-party workforce/field management solutions (eg, TotalMobile or similar). Key Deliverables Discovery & Scoping Architecture Document: Detailed review of the current technical landscape and proposed target design recommendations. Technical Statement of Requirements (SoR): Formal technical specifications to form the baseline of third-party procurement and implementation tenders. Data Exchange & API Specification: Modernized data ingestion/export standards replacing Legacy flat-file mechanisms, including media metadata capture specs (image/GTIN handling). Architectural Blueprints: End-to-end system topology, data flow diagrams, security posture documents, and integration diagrams (produced via standard tooling such as Visio, Draw.io, or EA Sparx). Essential Experience & Qualifications Active Security Clearance: Must hold valid, active UK SC Clearance . Cloud Architecture: Proven track record designing enterprise-scale solutions natively on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) using Terraform. Mobile & Edge Computing: Experience designing hybrid online/offline mobile applications (specifically iOS) with local caching, edge validation, and secure cloud synchronization. Public Sector Standards: Deep understanding of UK Public Sector/Government Digital Service (GDS) principles, security classifications, and architectural governance frameworks. Integration & API Modernization: Strong background in replacing Legacy data batch processes with modern microservices, RESTful APIs, or event-driven data integration patterns. Vendor & Stakeholder Engagement: Experience managing multi-vendor landscapes, defining procurement technical specifications, and working alongside agile delivery teams (using Jira/Confluence). Desirable Skills Experience with field-force operational tooling or workforce management integrations. Knowledge of statistical data collection processes, complex automated validation rules, or survey data ingestion pipelines.
