On the platform side, the key themes you'll work through include: data and analytics architecture, API and integration strategy, observability, security architecture, CI/CD maturity, scalability and cloud infrastructure. Experience across AWS, modern SaaS architecture and sensitive or regulated data environments is essential. What We're Looking For • Senior technology leadership in a small B2B SaaS or scale-up environment • Strong architectural judgement across cloud-native SaaS, APIs, observability and security • Experience leading engineering and product teams directly • A track record of improving delivery confidence and managing technical debt commercially • The ability to communicate technical trade-offs clearly to non-technical stakeholders • Experience with sensitive data, regulated environments or compliance obligations The right person will be decisive but not arrogant, calm under pressure, commercially curious, and technically credible enough to lead a sceptical engineering team - while being comfortable at Board level. Why Join This role offers real influence, meaningful work and the chance to shape the next stage of a business whose purpose genuinely matters.
