Full Job Description
Technology is our how. And people are our why. For over two decades, we have been harnessing technology to drive meaningful change. By combining world-class engineering, industry expertise and a people-centric mindset, we consult and partner with leading brands from various industries to create dynamic platforms and intelligent digital experiences that drive innovation and transform businesses. From prototype to real-world impact - be part of a global shift by doing work that matters. Endava is on an AI Native journey. As one of OpenAIs global partners we are committed to exploring (and helping our clients explore) the benefits AI can bring to productivity, effectiveness and accuracy. Our goal is to seize the AI-catalyzed growth moment to navigate this changing landscape and ensure ourselves and our clients thrive. We’re looking for a Payments Architect to join our growing team in London. This is a senior architectural leadership role with deep payments specialism, shaping and delivering enterprise-grade payment platforms from gateway and authorisation layers through to clearing, settlement and financial management. You’ll bring strong payments domain expertise, but you won’t be boxed into payments-only work. You’re a well-rounded architect who can apply the same rigour to wider platform and enterprise challenges, flexing across domains as client priorities shift. That might mean moving from payments architecture into broader solution leadership, integration strategy, cloud platform decisions or security and identity-driven programmes. This role suits someone who thrives in complex environments and operates confidently at the intersection of business strategy and technical execution. You’ll engage across the full lifecycle, from early discovery and architectural shaping through to delivery oversight, ensuring solutions are scalable, secure, commercially viable and aligned to long-term platform strategy. In addition to payments architecture, you’ll play a key role in
