The Comapany is undertaking one of its most significant technology transformations — and we're looking for a hands-on Technical Lead to sit at the heart of it. This is a high-impact, highly visible contract role where you'll shape how we retire legacy infrastructure and build something genuinely modern in its place.

The role

As part of the initiative, you'll lead the technical delivery across multiple IT workstreams — covering both the modernisation of legacy systems and the integration of new cloud-native architecture. The first pilot market is Iberia (Spain and Portugal), with a remit that spans the full EMEA business.

You'll set the technical direction, lead a team of developers, own the architecture decisions, and act as the critical bridge between engineering and business stakeholders. This is a genuinely senior hands-on role — not just oversight, but active leadership in code, design, and delivery.

What you'll be doing

›

Leading the remediation, modernisation, and enhancement of legacy S3 systems across the EMEA estate

›

Owning the AWS serverless architecture — Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, Aurora PostgreSQL, SQS — and driving a shift to microservices for transaction processing

›

Managing and mentoring a multi-team development function — code reviews, technical direction, guardrails, and hands-on guidance in Node.js and Java Spring Boot

›

Designing full-stack integration architecture: RESTful APIs, dual database strategies (DocumentDB + PostgreSQL), and integration with RDM/MDM and data lakes

›

Establishing CI/CD pipelines, coding standards, and best practices to raise the bar on quality and deployment confidence

›

Collaborating closely with product owners, architects, and business stakeholders to prioritise work and communicate progress clearly

What we need from you

✓

Insurance or financial services background — essential. You'll need to hit the ground running on policy lifecycle (new business, endorsements, renewals, cancellations) and regulatory compliance

✓

5+ years hands-on AWS serverless experience: Lambda, API Gateway, DocumentDB, Aurora PostgreSQL, SQS

✓

Proven track record leading engineering teams through complex legacy migrations — not just planning them, but delivering them

✓

Hands-on development capability in Node.js and Java Spring Boot — you'll lead by example

✓

Strong grasp of software modernisation strategies: refactoring, re-platforming, API-driven integration

✓

Excellent communicator — as comfortable talking architecture with engineers as explaining delivery status to senior business stakeholders

✓

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field

Ready to lead a transformation?

If you're a technical leader who thrives on solving real engineering problems at scale — and you have the insurance domain knowledge to back it up — we'd love to hear from you. Get in touch with your CV and a brief note on your most relevant legacy modernisation experience

Where to Advertise Cloud Computing Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise cloud computing jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and channels that reach AWS, Azure, GCP and cloud-native engineering talent. The candidate pool is large relative to other deep tech disciplines but highly segmented — cloud architects, DevOps engineers, platform engineers, FinOps specialists and cloud security professionals each occupy distinct communities with different job search behaviours, certification profiles and salary expectations. General job boards reach a broad audience but struggle to differentiate between these disciplines, producing high application volumes but low candidate quality for specialist cloud roles. This guide, published by CloudComputingJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise cloud computing roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Cloud Computing Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Cloud Computing Jobs UK 2026: salaries, hiring trends and the AWS, Azure and GCP skills shaping UK cloud careers over the next three years. Cloud computing is the infrastructure layer on which the modern digital economy runs — and the jobs market that has grown around it is one of the largest, most sustained, and most structurally resilient in the entire technology sector. But the cloud computing jobs market of 2026 looks quite different from the one that existed three years ago, and the next three years will bring further change at a pace that rewards those who understand the direction of travel. The migration phase that defined cloud hiring for much of the previous decade is largely complete for enterprise organisations. The question for most UK businesses is no longer whether to move to the cloud but how to operate, optimise, and secure what they have already built there — and how to integrate the wave of AI capability that is now being delivered primarily through cloud infrastructure. That shift has profound implications for which cloud skills are in demand, which roles are growing, and which are beginning to plateau. At the same time, new architectural patterns — multi-cloud, cloud-native, serverless, and the growing integration of edge computing with centralised cloud infrastructure — are creating entirely new categories of specialist expertise that employers are actively competing to hire. The cloud computing jobs market of 2026 is not contracting. It is evolving, and evolving in ways that create significant opportunity for job seekers who are building the right skills. This article breaks down what the UK cloud computing jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
