AWS Solutions Architect – Consulting & Defence Location: Manchester Salary : £70,000 - £90,000 10% bonus Overview: We’re supporting a leading consultancy at the forefront of digital transformation, data intelligence, and national security. With a global footprint and deep expertise in cyber, cloud, and systems engineering, they work across defence, government, and commercial sectors to unlock secure digital advantage. They’re currently seeking an AWS Solutions Architect to lead and shape cloud adoption journeys for critical national infrastructure and defence clients. The Role: As an AWS Solutions Architect, you’ll work directly with clients to design, define, and implement cloud-native architectures and secure migration strategies within complex multi-account AWS estates. You’ll take a technical leadership role—setting cloud standards, shaping reusable migration patterns, and guiding engineering teams to ensure delivery excellence through automation and DevOps best practices. This is a high-impact role, contributing to major cloud transformations that support national security and mission-critical services. Key Responsibilities: • Lead AWS cloud migration and enablement initiatives. • Define cloud architecture roadmaps, reference patterns, and standards. • Drive automation and infrastructure-as-code adoption across teams. • Collaborate with engineering teams to deliver repeatable, secure AWS solutions. • Support architectural reviews and continuous optimisation of the AWS estate. • Act as a technical escalation point for migration and deployment issues. What We’re Looking For: • Proven experience designing AWS architectures in large-scale, complex environments. • Expertise in cloud migration, security, networking, and AWS-native services. • Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps tooling. • Strong background in defining reusable patterns and automation-first approaches. • Excellent communication skills and ability to guide both technical teams and stakeholders. • Agile delivery experience (e.g. SAFe, Scrum@Scale). • AWS certifications (Solutions Architect or Speciality domains) are a plus. • Eligible for UK Security Clearance (or already cleared). If you’re a forward-thinking Lead Software Engineer looking for your next opportunity, feel free to apply or get in touch with thomas.roscoe@ansonmccade.com to find out more.
