Digital Solutions Architect
£100,000 + bonus | London | Hybrid (3 days in office) | CMS | Node | React | Next | APIs
We're working with a major sports & entertainment data business, the teams behind digital experiences for the largest sports leagues and franchies around the world. As they scale their product and MarTech capabilities, they're hiring a Digital Solutions Architect to bridge high-level design and hands-on engineering.
This suits someone who has moved from engineering into architecture and wants ownership across modern digital stacks: web, apps, CMS, content platforms and integrations.
What you'll be doing
- Turn business and product requirements into clear architectures and technical designs
- Work closely with engineering teams to guide builds and ensure architectural integrity
- Design scalable digital solutions across web and app experiences
- Contribute to integration design, API patterns and reusability
- Support discovery, technical workshops and client-facing discussions
- Stay hands-on when needed: troubleshooting, prototyping, helping unblock complex builds
What we're looking for
- Strong engineering background (Node.js, React, Next.js or adjacent tech)
- Experience designing digital solutions (CMS, content platforms, APIs, microservices)
- Comfort working in fast-paced, agency/consultancy-style environments
- Ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical teams
- Experience with Azure or other clouds
Nice to have
- Experience with headless CMS (Contentful, Strapi, Adobe)
- Knowledge of MarTech, analytics, personalisation, CDPs
- Interest in sports and digital fan experiences
