Senior Solutions Architect (GCP) Contract, outside IR35. Starting as soon as possible. The engagement You’ll own the data architecture for a high-volume online marketplace, leading a major, multi-year technology transformation. The current stack runs entirely on Google Cloud Platform: BigQuery for storage and consumption, DBT for transformations, and Data Stream.

Tech Lead (AWS / TypeScript / Python) Location and basis Contract, outside IR35. Starting as soon as possible. Fully flexible working: home, office, or a mix, your call. We just ask that you're based within 50 miles of Edinburgh, Newcastle, Leeds, Manchester or London. Applications from outside these areas won't be considered.
