Senior Technical Lead - Platform Integration & Implementation
Remote (UK) | £85,000 - £90,000 + benefits | Permanent | Occasional UK travel

A well-funded, growth-stage technology group is building the platform backbone for an ambitious UK-wide MSP roll-up. Fully equity-backed, no debt, and acquiring 8-10 regional MSPs per year - this is a founding technical hire to take a greenfield architecture from paper to production.

The opportunity

The stack has been strategically selected. None of it is live yet. You will be the first internal technical hire, owning the build end-to-end and becoming the internal authority on how the platform is designed, integrated and scaled.

You'll stand up the full group stack - PSA, RMM, CRM, financial management, comms and Microsoft 365 - build the integrations and automations that make it operate as a single platform and create the documentation and playbooks that turn every future acquisition onboarding into a repeatable process.

What you'll do

Phase 1 (0-3 months): Lead the greenfield implementation of all core platforms. Build foundational REST API integrations and webhook-driven automations. Define the cross-platform data model - canonical field mapping, entity relationships and data quality standards across PSA, CRM, RMM and finance. Direct vendor professional services against defined outcomes and own the knowledge transfer so the group holds full internal ownership.

Phase 2 (3-9 months): Lead technical discovery with operational stakeholders to define the automation roadmap. Build workflow automations in JavaScript and Python - ticket routing, billing triggers, licence lifecycle, CRM sequences, alert-to-action logic. Build and maintain Azure middleware (Logic Apps, API Management, Service Bus) as IaC via Terraform through a CI/CD pipeline. Iterate the acquisition onboarding playbook.

What we're looking for

* 5+ years hands-on API integration and platform implementation - building, not configuration support or consulting
* Greenfield implementation experience with at least two of: HaloPSA, HubSpot, Sage Intacct, NinjaOne RMM, 3CX, Microsoft 365 / Graph API
* Strong JavaScript and/or Python for integration scripting and automation
* REST API design - webhooks, OAuth, JSON transformation, event-driven architecture
* Cross-platform data mapping across multiple SaaS systems
* Technical documentation to a professional standard
* Comfortable operating autonomously within a management structure for escalation and peer review

Strongly desirable

* Terraform / IaC and Azure Integration Services
* M&A, high-growth or multi-entity MSP environments
* MSP sector background - PSA/RMM/CRM workflows, billing and service delivery
* AI-assisted development (Copilot, Cursor or similar)
* Agile delivery, DevOps and CI/CD pipeline experience

Why this role

A rare chance to own the technical foundation of a scaling MSP platform from day one- not inherit someone else's decisions, not maintain legacy. Reports to the Operations Director with fractional CTO advisory support. Clear progression as the platform matures into data migration, AI/ML automation and client-facing services.

Remote-first, UK-based. Occasional travel to London HQ and acquisition sites. Judged on delivery.

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.
