If you enjoy translating ambitious platform goals into clear, high-quality solution designs that engineering teams can trust, this role will suit you perfectly.

My client, a leading global finance services organisation, is building an enterprise-grade Generative AI Platform and they’re looking for an experienced Platform Designer to define the capabilities, patterns, and structures that will make this platform scalable, secure, and genuinely usable across the business.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Defining, documenting, and gaining approval for new GenAI platform features and capabilities

  • Translating business and technical goals into structured design artefacts such as HLDs, LLDs, sequence diagrams, and governance packs

  • Leading design discussions while ensuring alignment with cloud best practice and enterprise security standards

  • Partnering with product owners, architects, SRE/DevOps teams, and data scientists to ensure clarity and feasibility

  • Supporting engineering teams throughout delivery by resolving design queries quickly and effectively

  • Maintaining platform capability roadmaps focused on value, reuse, scalability, and long-term futureproofing

  • Ensuring designs progress efficiently through architecture and governance forums

  • Driving integration patterns across applications, AI APIs, and core platform services

  • Identifying risks, dependencies, and simplification opportunities early


What You’ll Bring:

  • Experience in solution design, integration architecture, or a similar technical role

  • Strong background designing cloud-native platforms on AWS

  • A track record of moving complex designs through structured governance at pace

  • Experience working with enterprise security, observability, compliance, and IAM frameworks

  • Knowledge of microservices, event-driven architecture, messaging, and platform services

  • The ability to simplify complex problems into clear, actionable artefacts for engineers

  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills


Nice to Have:

  • Experience in regulated industries such as insurance or financial services

  • Exposure to SRE, DevOps, or CI/CD enablement

  • Familiarity with LLMs, AI service integration, and operationalising GenAI features


What Success Looks Like:

  • New GenAI platform capabilities designed, approved, and delivered smoothly into production

  • Clear, consistent design standards and strong reuse of platform components

  • Engaged stakeholders who see you as a reliable source of structure, clarity, and progress

  • Accelerated adoption of GenAI solutions across engineering teams


Role Details:

  • Rate: £450–£500 per day Inside IR35, or permanent £60k–£70k salary


If you’re keen to help shape a platform that will define how GenAI is engineered across the enterprise, drop me a message and I’ll get things moving for you. Interviews are already underway.
