Software Architect

Turn an ambiguous brief into a system that survives year six: boundaries, data, the hard calls. Then stay close enough to the code to be proven right.

How we work

You are placed for the work and kept on it. The client meets you, not a profile, and the engineer they interview is the engineer who ships. Benefits, equipment and AI tooling are included in the 25% of every rate that is not your pay, and every embedded person has a dedicated success lead on our side.

Pay follows the published 60 / 25 / 15 split, wherever you are. Most roles start with a two-week paid trial on real work, so both sides decide on evidence rather than another interview.

What we look for

  1. 01

    Integrity & responsibility

    Explain your choices, name uncertainty, and take responsibility when something needs to change.

  2. 02

    Talent & capacity to learn

    Show us work you understand, what made it difficult, and what you would do differently now.

  3. 03

    Care for the work

    Notice the details that affect another person. Ask questions, follow through, and learn from mistakes.

  4. 04

    Communication & listening

    Make a complex idea clear, listen to another view, and give feedback someone can use.

  5. 05

    Curiosity & contribution

    Bring questions, share what you learn, and help the people around you become better at the work.
