Principal Architect Engineering Lead presso Starcompliance
Starcompliance · Remote, Regno Unito · Remote
Description
At StarCompliance, we build software that supports critical compliance needs for global clients. We rely on experienced engineering leaders not only to deliver high-quality services, system designs and code, but to help shape how all teams work and how systems evolve.
We’re looking for a Principal Engineering Lead to play a lead role within our Architecture engineering team. This role is suited to highly capable lead engineers/architects who combine strong technical architecture expertise with sound decision making judgement at scale, a service mindset, and a collaborative approach.
The role blends hands-on architectural depth with organisational leadership. You will set the architectural direction, chair the Architecture Forum, and ensure that our systems are scalable, resilient, secure, and cost-effective at scale. You will line-manage two Principal Architect Engineers and work closely with engineering, product, security, and operations leaders.
This position requires strong technical authority, the ability to navigate complex stakeholder input, and the credibility to influence senior engineers and leaders across the organisation.
How you work is critical. We value engineering leaders who communicate clearly, build trust, challenge ideas constructively, and take ownership not just of systems, but of outcomes.
