This role is for an Integration Architect working with Civica/Atkins on the Defence Support Solution Integration Authority (SIA).
It’s strategic rather than hands-on: the architect will define the reference and logical integration architecture for how new digital services from the Business Modernisation for Support (BMfS) programme plug into the wider Defence Support Environment.
Key points:
-
Focuses on standards, policies, patterns, and integration rules – not individual systems or products.
-
Ensures all digital services are aligned, interoperable, and compliant with Defence Digital standards.
-
Involves stakeholder engagement with MOD CIO, Defence Digital, DE&S, and industry providers.
-
Requires Defence support/logistics experience, SC clearance, and strong consulting/advisory skills.
In short: it’s about defining the big-picture integration framework for Defence Support, making sure everything fits together properly and setting the rules for how integration should be done.
