You’ll work closely with delivery teams, platform teams, product managers and other architects to embed consistent integration approaches across the organisation.

As a Senior Integration Architect, you will:
Help design and evolve the MoJ integration hub, establishing it as a reusable, governed platform
Apply and promote integration patterns such as APIs, event‑driven architecture and messaging

Design and assure integrations that are secure, reliable and aligned to MoJ strategy
Work across organisational boundaries, including with Criminal Justice System partners where needed
Contribute to architectural decision‑making and standards
Mentor other architects and engineers, strengthening integration capability
Communicate integration decisions clearly to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders

Working in multi‑disciplinary teams
