Be a driving force in the design and delivery of state-of-the-art solutions that transform our clients - from start-ups to global household names. If you've been treated by the NHS, passed your driving test, or paid via Apple Pay, you'll have used one of our systems. Our architects have always been at the centre of our engagements, taking the lead on technical quality and ensuring solutions will work in the real world, not just in the sandbox.
Overview
We're proud to take on the hard stuff and get it right, and we're passionate about building high-quality solutions that bring maximum value to our clients. At BJSS we've created the backbone of the NHS, trading systems that deal with half the world's foreign exchange, and helped organisations like Amnesty International improve human rights.
You'll work with high-performing, multi-disciplinary teams consisting of BJSS peers, clients, and partners. As a technical authority, you’ll lead by example, inspiring delivery teams to create great software products and technology solutions that demonstrate the art of the possible.
Variety of technologies and challenges
No two projects are the same, there are opportunities to work across a wide range of technologies, platforms, and paradigms. Our architects can face many challenges – from hands-on rapid innovation of a product from concept to live, to helping large enterprise clients with multi-year transformation roadmaps aligning people, process and technology change.
We empower engineering teams to make sound design choices while managing client stakeholder expectations and creating opportunities for continuous improvement. Be part of a learning organisation where you're always encouraged and supported to voice your opinion and continue your development.
Our take on architecture
We believe that successful delivery requires pragmatism, strong leadership and mentoring, great communication, and leaving ego at the door. Gone are the days of command and control from an ivory tower – our approach to architecture centres around the empowerment of teams, guidance, and a willingness to get stuck in when help is needed.
Our architects take responsibility and feel a strong sense of ownership of our solutions. They’re not afraid to make the tough decisions when necessary, but always back them up with impeccable rationale and a healthy respect for others’ opinions. Servant leadership is our way.
Work flexibly
We believe that hybrid working should be about flexibility. As an architect at BJSS, you'll have the option to work from home, a BJSS office, or from the client's site, depending on your preference and the nature of work to be completed.
We've introduced new office locations across the UK. Accessible to everyone as and when needed, these extra sites mean you'll be under no pressure to relocate.
What life at BJSS is like

Bring your authentic self to work
We’ve built an environment where respect and inclusivity are paramount, where fantastic people of all kinds are free to be themselves and get on with doing a great job. And even though BJSS is a global business, each regional office is as distinct and idiosyncratic as the people in it – you can expect to be part of a unique, tight-knit community with a busy social calendar.
Make your mark
Clients trust us to get the hard things done. And if you join us, you’ll be faced with challenges only people like you have the drive to solve. You’ll be pushed out of your comfort zone, and you won’t be sitting on the sidelines, but you’ll also make a real difference on extraordinary projects.

At BJSS, we don’t believe in job titles or hierarchies, so how you progress in the company is entirely down to you. You’ve got the flexibility and freedom to follow your interests and pursue your career goals - with full support, training opportunities and incentives from the business.
