Introduction

These are exciting times at MOJ Digital and Technology. We have a clear vision - to develop a digitally-enabled justice system that works more simply for users - and we’re looking for talented people to help us achieve it.

We’re making things better by building adaptable, effective services and making systems that are simple to use for staff and citizens. It can be challenging but it’s also important and rewarding.

As well as doing great work, we’re creating a place that’s great to do work in. We offer tip-top kit, brilliant training opportunities and support from expert colleagues. On top of that, you’ll find flexible working, an inclusive culture and a place where your opinion is valued.

The role

As a lead technical architect at MOJ Digital & Technology you will be responsible for a team of architects designing and building systems that make a genuine difference to people’s lives. You’ll define how we build and operate our applications, keeping up to date with the latest technologies and trends, whilst delivering working software early and often.

Our applications range from internet-facing digital services through to data APIs which support numerous other applications. They include services for all audiences, including citizens and staff. They include our most modern applications, through to our older legacy applications.

At MOJ you’ll be responsible for a team of architects developing acclaimed open-source public services and helping us transform Government for the future. You’ll be helping define how we do what we do, and making sure that our systems are built to be changed rapidly.
