About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Define and maintain a platform convergence strategy that articulates the current-state landscape, the target architecture, and a credible transition path — enabling bp's engineering platforms and SaaS solutions to operate as an integrated whole.
- Lead architectural design and decision-making at the intersection of internal platforms and enterprise SaaS, establishing integration patterns, data contracts, and governance standards that apply consistently across the platform estate.
- Act as the principal technical authority for platform engineering across the digital delivery organisation, providing expert guidance on platform design, cloud-native patterns, and systems integration to engineering teams and senior stakeholders.
- Drive resolution of complex cross-platform integration challenges, including identity, data flow, event-driven architecture, and API design — ensuring that integration decisions are durable, secure, and aligned with enterprise standards.
- Produce and maintain high-quality architecture strategy documents, reference architectures, and decision records that are accessible to both engineering and executive audiences, building shared understanding of the platform direction.
- Collaborate with AI engineering, software engineering, and external vendor and partner teams to ensure that platform architecture decisions enable and do not constrain the delivery of business and AI-powered capabilities.
Requirements
What you’ll need- Extensive experience in platform engineering (including Kubernetes) and the design, delivery, and operation of large-scale, multi-component platform estates in a cloud-native environment.
- Proven enterprise architecture capability, including experience producing target-state architecture strategies and navigating complex system landscapes spanning internal platforms and third-party SaaS.
- Deep knowledge of cloud-native architecture patterns: containerisation and orchestration, service mesh, API gateway design, event streaming, and infrastructure-as-code.
- Demonstrable experience integrating enterprise SaaS solutions — including ERP or business application platforms — with internally developed systems, covering API, identity, and data integration patterns.
- Track record of operating as a senior technical authority in a large organisation, influencing architecture and engineering decisions at scale without direct management responsibility.
- Strong communication and documentation skills, with the ability to convey complex architectural concepts clearly to technical peers, delivery teams, and senior business stakeholders.
- Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related technical subject area or equivalent experience.
