Role Summary
We are looking for a Platform Engineer / Solution Architect to help shape and evolve our enterprise API Management Platform, a strategic capability that enables teams across the organisation to design, publish, discover, and consume APIs efficiently and securely. This is a platform-as-a-product role focused on building scalable, self-service capabilities, improving developer experience, and driving consistency across a federated technology landscape. Working alongside experienced engineers, product partners, and architects, you will contribute to the long-term evolution of the platform while helping accelerate adoption through automation, standardisation, and AI-enabled ways of working.

- Define, implement, and promote reusable patterns, standards, and best practices for API exposure, governance, and lifecycle management.
- Own and continuously improve runtime capabilities such as authentication, authorisation, traffic management, rate limiting, policy enforcement, transformation, and observability.
- Build and enhance self-service capabilities that enable API producers and consumers to onboard, develop, and integrate with minimal manual support.
- Work closely with product, design, and engineering teams to improve platform usability, adoption, and overall developer experience.
- Collaborate with engineering teams across the organisation to understand requirements, remove friction points, and drive platform consistency at scale.
- Contribute to long-term platform ownership by finding opportunities to simplify architecture, reduce technical debt, and improve operational efficiency.
- Establish and promote clear platform standards, ensuring governance and controls are embedded without reducing developer productivity.
- Support and evolve API lifecycle tooling, including design, publishing, documentation, sandbox environments, and discovery capabilities.
- Leverage AI-assisted engineering tools to improve development efficiency, platform automation, testing, and operational excellence.
- Monitor platform health and usage metrics, using data and insights to continuously improve platform performance and customer satisfaction.
- Act as a trusted technical advisor, contributing architectural guidance and helping teams make informed technology decisions.
