Technical Architecture - Technical Architect

Technical Architect

Hybrid / Remote | UK

What if your architecture decisions shaped technology used by millions of people, every single day?

At Evri, we’re not just moving parcels - we’re powering one of the UK’s largest, most complex delivery networks with modern, cloud-first technology. Our Architecture and Engineering teams sit at the heart of this transformation, designing systems that have to perform at scale, adapt fast, and never stand still.

Now, we’re looking for a Technical Architect who wants to leave their mark - shaping the technical foundations of a business where what you design genuinely matters.

If you love solving complex problems, influencing technical direction, and working with smart, passionate engineers on modern platforms, this is where your expertise will shine.

Why this role is exciting

This isn’t an ivory-tower architecture role. You’ll be right in the detail, shaping designs, influencing decisions, and enabling squads to deliver high-quality, scalable solutions at pace.

You’ll work across a varied and evolving technology landscape, collaborating with Solution Architects, Engineering Principals, Developers, Product Owners and SREs to turn big ambitions into working, resilient systems.

You’ll have the space to experiment, improve, challenge the status quo and help define how Evri builds technology - now and next.

This role is hybrid / remote, with meaningful connection points into Morley when required.

What you’ll be doing

Turning high-level solution designs into clear, scalable and secure low-level designs

Setting the technical direction within your domain and championing best practice

Working hands-on with engineering teams to guide delivery and solve complex problems

Driving architectural consistency while knowing when pragmatism wins

Tackling technical debt head-on and raising engineering standards

Supporting incident resolution and system resilience

Leading documentation, standardisation and knowledge sharing

Exploring new technologies and running proofs of concept

Helping optimise cloud usage and infrastructure costs

Partnering with internal teams and third-party suppliers to ensure quality outcomes

What you’ll bring

Proven experience designing and delivering solutions in large, complex environments

Deep hands-on expertise with Java and Spring Boot

Strong experience with AWS, including serverless technologies

Confidence with API-led design, modern coding practices and object-oriented principles

Experience building distributed systems and working with messaging and data platforms

The ability to zoom in and out - from architecture diagrams to real-world delivery

Clear communication skills and the confidence to challenge, influence and lead

A collaborative mindset and genuine passion for great engineering

Why Evri

Because here, your architecture won’t sit on a shelf.

You’ll work at national scale, with modern platforms, real complexity and teams who care deeply about doing things well. You’ll have autonomy, trust, and the chance to make decisions that last.

Most importantly, you’ll be part of a business that welcomes different perspectives, backs its people, and knows that great technology starts with great humans.

We are Evri. Where everyone is welcome.

We’re excited about what’s next. Let’s deliver it together.
