Solutions Architect

We accept direct applications only from individuals who are UK taxpayers with the right to work in the United Kingdom. We do not work with recruitment agencies, staffing firms, or outsource companies, and we do not pay recruitment fees. Applications submitted by or on behalf of agencies will not receive a response. All positions are permanent.

These are key permanent roles that we fill internally. We invest heavily in finding the right people ourselves because culture fit and genuine enthusiasm for AI-accelerated working matter as much as experience. We appreciate this may be frustrating for agencies, but our position is firm: we do not engage external recruiters and we do not pay recruitment fees under any circumstances.

This role requires a minimum of 8 years of professional experience in a relevant discipline. AI tools amplify expertise, they don't replace it. We need seasoned professionals who know what good looks like. These are not junior or graduate positions.

All roles are hybrid, based from our Bournemouth office. We offer day-to-day flexibility, but you will need to be able to commute to Bournemouth regularly. Some travel to client sites across the UK may also be required from time to time.

Everyone at Talk Think Do uses Claude Team daily. BAs use it to research client domains, interrogate workshop transcripts, and draft requirements. Delivery managers use it to prepare for client calls, analyse meeting transcripts, build quick prototypes, and draft status reports. QA professionals use it to generate test cases, analyse coverage, and spot gaps. Engineers use it to write and review code via Cursor and Claude. All AI usage happens within our ISO 27001-certified security framework, so client data is always protected. The boundaries between traditional roles are blurring, and the result is more varied, interesting work. We evaluate new AI tooling quarterly and adopt what works. You must be genuinely enthusiastic about this way of working. Read more on our AI approach page.

We appreciate this is new and not everyone has had the opportunity to fully embrace AI in their current role. That is fine. What matters is genuine enthusiasm and self-directed investment. If you are excited about AI and have spent your own time exploring it (using Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, or other tools to learn, experiment, or build things), that tells us what we need to know. We are looking for people who are drawn to this technology, not people who need to be convinced. If you have been waiting for permission to start using AI, this probably is not the right fit.

No. We hire across all disciplines: engineers, business analysts, QA professionals, delivery managers, and solutions architects. As our project portfolio grows, non-engineering roles are an increasingly large proportion of our hiring. Every role here uses AI daily and operates with the same progressive, flexible outlook.

Our process is straightforward: an introductory chat so we can get to know each other, followed by a face-to-face interview or technical assessment (depending on the role), and then an offer. We aim to move quickly and keep you informed at every stage.
