About this opportunity:
Lloyds Banking Group is a purposeful business & its transformation agenda is underpinned by a ground-breaking approach for how we deliver financial services for our customers. This involves selecting the best of what we do currently and evolving it to bring business and technology closer together.
Our people have the autonomy to incrementally design, engineer, release, and operate one or more technology-enabled services for our customers. We are organised as multidisciplinary teams: the right people with the right expertise all working together for the same outcome.
We are building contemporary, services-driven architecture which creates opportunities to digitise & deliver excellent customer journeys, business outcomes and meets group strategic goals. We need to simplify and redefine our technology and data landscape. And we need to deliver a set of flexible, future-focused core platform capabilities to the benefit of all our customers. You can help shape this future.
As Lead Solutions Architect, you will be responsible for solutions design and architecture across our multi-brand, multi-tenanted direct to consumer and intermediary wealth digital technology estate and its eco-system. The digital sites underpin external facing journeys for multiple user profiles, multiple LBG and white label propositions with complex internal and external integration points.
What you’ll need:
* Solid background as a Lead Solutions or Technical Architect across a large programme of work
* Hands-on experience of complete Microsoft stack and frameworks
* Experience of designing multi-tier and complex architectures

* Knowledge and experience of ID&A, SCA, SSO patterns (SAML, Oauth, OpenIDConnect)
* Experience of solution design for 24x7 applications handling high transaction throughput and high data volumes
* Excellent understanding of Cybersecurity best practices
And any experience of these would be really useful:
* Practical experience of designing and building cloud-based platforms at scale.
* Understanding of domain driven design architectures – understanding where these are applicable and supporting practical steps towards asynchronous, events-based ways of working in this context
* Previous experience as a Solutions Architect within Financial Services or Banking
* Data Analytics, BigQuery
* Content management frameworks and tools (Umbraco or similar)
* Large scale data migrations and ADF pipelines
