We're the people behind global loyalty currency, Avios, and home to three ambitious, growing businesses; and . Each business has its own goals and strategy, but collectively we create brilliant experiences for our global customers.   

We're on a truly exciting journey of growth and transformation - we're going places! This is where you come in.   

  

The opportunity ✨ 

The Platform Architecture & Sales Engineering team is a key part of Core Engineering that is responsible for the design of our cloud platform and the architecture, standards and processes of our engineering teams as well as partners that integrate with our platform. We cover a range of responsibilities including platform architecture, ways of working and partner experience.  

The team acts as an architecture centre of excellence, engaging and supporting product teams and partners. There is an element consulting with not our external partners but also our internal products to ensure well-defined patterns are established and applied to their given product. We take responsibility for overseeing the quality of products delivered on the platform.   

Our platform architecture function is fundamental in making technology decisions as the platform evolves to meet the needs of our growing product landscape. We also provide architectural support for strategic initiatives across the wider business, providing technical leadership as required.  

 

What you'll get up to 🌠 

We seek a Platform Architect to join our team and drive our platform architecture forward. This role involves shaping our architectural processes, consulting with external partners on integrations, and collaborating with product and commercial teams to align technical capabilities with priorities and partner needs.  

As a technical leader, you'll communicate and influence stakeholders across departments, product teams, and partner management. You'll contribute to strategic platform initiatives, providing solution architecture and technical leadership to drive continuous improvement.  

Your responsibilities will also include leading architectural best practices such as domain modeling and reviews to enhance team capabilities. We're looking for someone with strong communication skills, a passion for innovation, and the ability to contribute to our roadmap. 

 

What we need from you �'�  

  • 🚀 Strong Software Engineering and Architecture background.   

  • �'� Solid understanding of cloud architectures and design patterns.   

  • �-️ Familiarity with the AWS Well Architected framework.   

  • 🛠️ Experience with domain modelling best practices.   

  • �-�️ Great communication skills, comfortable presenting to technical and non-technical audiences.   

  • 🤝 Stakeholder management and the ability to influence at all levels.   

  • 📝 Proficiency at generating high-quality technical and non-technical documentation.   

  • 🔄 Prior experience working in an agile, product-focused organization.  

If you're ready to make an impact, push boundaries, and embark on a journey of continuous growth, we want to hear from  you! Don't let a few unchecked boxes hold you back—your unique perspective and talents are what we value most. Join us and let's shape the future of data together!   

The role has a blended base, between our Central London office and home. We trust you to make the right decision about the type of work that is best done in each location. We expect you'll achieve a 50/50 split between the two and there may be times where you'll want to visit our other locations to tell their stories, too (fully reimbursed).  

  

We might not be right for you if:   

  • You only want to focus on your to-do list; we're a small, high-performing team, we help each other to succeed.  

  • You value perfection over fast iteration and progress; IAG Loyalty moves fast, we learn and iterate as we go; our environment isn't right for everyone.  

If you think you have what it takes but don't meet every single point above, please do still apply. We'd love to chat and see if you could be a great fit.  

 

In return you'll get perks that take you places: ✈️ 

  • Access to non-contractual Annual Bookable Travel Concessions for you and up to 3 nominees 

  • Unlimited standby and premium standby fares for you and your nominees on the full British Airways network and numerous other partner airlines from day one 

  • 20 days working from abroad in Europe per annum.   

  • Annual Bonus (dependant on company and individual performance) 

  • Company pension of 9% (6% contribution from IAGL, 3% employee contribution)   

  • 25 days annual leave, + 2 days charity leave and a day off on your birthday
