SR2 is supporting a central government programme seeking an experienced Solutions Architect to contribute to the modernisation of critica navigational systems. This role is suited to someone with deep exposure to SOLAS-aligned environments and a track record of delivering complex cloud and legacy-modernisation work.

The Role
You will work within a multidisciplinary engineering function, supporting the migration of essential maritime safety systems to modern cloud infrastructure. The position requires strong domain understanding across hydrography, navigational data, and charting standards, combined with hands-on technical capability in cloud, IaC and legacy system transformation.
Core Requirements
Essential:

Direct experience operating in a SOLAS environment, such as commercial shipping, government maritime agencies, or adjacent regulated domains.
Familiarity with hydrography and navigational charts – ideally S-100, with S-57 as a minimum.
Proven contribution to cloud and legacy migration initiatives.
Competence with a major cloud provider (AWS, Azure or GCP) and IaC tooling (Terraform or CloudFormation).
Experience working across large, complex codebases and ageing systems.
Desirable:

Knowledge of S-101 (ENC) and broader S-100 product specifications.
Experience with chart-compilation tools or GIS platforms for data processing.
Exposure to Azure DevOps, CI/CD pipelines and associated best practices.
Additional experience using hydrographic/GIS tools is beneficial.
