KPMG's AI & Platform Engineering practice assists clients in transforming their technology delivery. This role is crucial for the high-growth National Security sector, contributing to the development of strategies for modern platform technologies, building operating models and architectures for cloud and hybrid platforms, and ensuring effective long-term operation of platform estates.

• Provide broad and detailed insight across technology areas including integration and hybrid hosting scenarios.
• Work with colleagues to maximize the use of knowledge and experience.
• Leverage expertise and network to generate new client opportunities.
• Drive the development of propositions and assets, bringing a National Security perspective.

• Provide highly credible and informative thought leadership based on real-life experience.

Requirements

• Must hold current 'National Security Vetting’ aligned to a UK National Security organisation.
• Proven experience in helping clients shape and deliver technology-enabled change that delivers value, security, agility, and efficiency.
• Developed enterprise-level technology strategies and contributed to the definition of associated programs of work.
• Experience of delivering complex architectural solutions on cloud or hybrid environments.
• Experience in the integration of new platforms into the wider enterprise.
• Experience across disciplines such as business analysis, systems thinking, solution architecture, technical architecture, data architecture, and data science.
• Knowledge of a variety of systems thinking and systems integration approaches and techniques, and the ability to apply them to understand, frame, and solve problems.
• Strong knowledge of traditional platform delivery approaches, technologies, and operating models.
• Thorough appreciation of the capabilities of the major cloud platforms – Azure, GCP, with particular depth, skills, and experience in AWS.
• Understanding and ability to balance trade-offs in using “one size fits all” vs “landing zone specific” solutions.
• Understanding the importance of both enterprise MI for long-term decision making and (near) real-time observability for operations.
• Appreciation of different operating models associated with both legacy and cloud environments, and ability to contribute to operating model design and implementation.
• Ability to manage technical reviews and assessments of platform strategy, roadmaps, data models, cloud integration, and migration tools.
• Must be a practitioner more than a theorist.
• Passionate about technology but thrive in multi-disciplinary teams.
• Highly credible in front of both client and colleagues.
• Act as a source of support for customers throughout the transformation journey, building relationships and helping to ensure the successful implementation of major change.
• Comfortable providing advice and delivering to C-suite leaders and senior client technologists.
