Lead Technical Architects are a new role for Legal Aid, providing inspiring and nurturing technical leadership for a whole service area, with responsibility for multiple digital products and dozens of complex systems.  Our architects are responsible for helping to create and communicate the strategy, design and agree the composition of our services, and justify and communicate decisions.

Our Lead Technical Architects will work to understand our technology, our business, and our people (colleagues, stakeholders, and users of our services), and to create an ambitious and pragmatic path for our teams, using their technical expertise to bring our challenges and opportunities into focus alongside the views of other professions in our leadership team.

  • Collaborate with the Principal Technical Architect to create a technical vision for Legal Aid, develop our strategy, and be accountable for our technology estate as a whole
  • Communicate about our technology across teams and professions, both within our Digital unit and across all parts of Legal Aid; seeing the big picture, and bringing it to all stakeholders.
  • Advocate for a diverse, inclusive culture across the engineering community, growing awareness, inclusivity, and balance, including being a champion for increasing women and minorities in our workforce.
  • Collaborate and find agreement with senior stakeholders, providing both technical and non-technical direction and challenge, as well as pragmatic compromise to deliver value.
  • Mentor, coach, line-manage, and recruit more great technical architects and engineering leadership, helping build a sustainable work force plan to deliver our strategy.
  • Create structured analysis of technical concepts, providing insight for multi-disciplinary decision-making, whilst seeking opportunities to collaborate and reuse common components.
  • 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.
