In LAA Digital believe that architecture is not purely a technical discipline. The systems we build are shaped by the teams that build them, the organisational structures they sit within, and the communication patterns between the people involved. Our architects think about how team structures, domain boundaries, and organisational dynamics shape systems - and how the systems we design, in turn, shape the organisation. We are looking for people who understand that designing great systems means co-designing the social and technical dimensions together, and who bring both technical depth and organisational awareness to their work. This role requires clear communication and structured thinking skills. A Lead Architect can see the big picture, understanding our complex technology landscape, and can clearly and effectively communicate with both specialist and non-specialist audiences. By building trust, developing great relationships, and empathising with others you will support the development of the architecture community and engineering leadership within your service area, providing guidance, mentorship, and technical leadership across teams.

Collaborate and find agreement with senior stakeholders, providing both technical and non-technical direction and challenge, as well as pragmatic compromise to deliver value. Maintain a holistic view of the end-to-end service ecosystem within Legal Aid, identifying technical dependencies and risks, actively seeking opportunities for improvement and collaboration, and ensuring we as a profession are actively producing, maintaining, and owning the associated enterprise architecture documentation. Empower teams to make pragmatic and incremental change, through influence and inspiration, setting both a vision for the future and an empathetic path that people and teams will be able to follow. Guide and influence choices to align with strategy, and seek out opportunities for digital transformation, helping all understand the value of technical decisions. Engage with our portfolio, assurance, risk management, cyber, and information assurance leadership to ensure their priorities are represented alongside those of the business and other digital teams. Mentor, coach, line-manage, and recruit more great architects and engineering leadership, helping build a sustainable work force plan to deliver our strategy.

Modern languages and frameworks built in Ruby, Java, and Python Resilient infrastructure in the cloud (primarily AWS), using infrastructure as code (IaC) and platforms as a service (PaaS) Progressive software development practices such as Domain-Driven Design (DDD), test-driven development (TDD), continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD) A new multi-tier architecture, creating central data and business logic platforms to accelerate our product development.
