And you will see the impact of your work every day in the work we do. If you are excited by ownership, pace and purpose and by building something that genuinely matters, we would love to hear from you. **Who we are** Founded in 2020, Oxford Dynamics is a fast-growing UK deep-tech company developing both digital AI and physical AI systems designed to operate in dynamic, mission-critical environments. Our flagship **AVIS** (A Very Intelligent System) platform fuses multi-modal data, including text, imagery, telemetry and sensor feeds, enabling operators to interrogate complex information at speed and make better decisions under pressure. We apply AVIS in the real world through platforms like **STRIDER** for CBRN applications and **BARBARIAN** for explosive ordnance detection. Our ambition is simple but demanding: to converge AI and robotics so machines can sense, understand and act in complex, real-world environments. We work with defence and security organisations internationally to help protect nations, infrastructure and lives. ### The Role Technical expertise and the right stakeholder management and approach are both for equally important for this role. As our Senior Solutions Architect you will act as our in-country technical lead in a sovereign on-premises environment, owning the deployment, hardening and operation of our Kubernetes-based AI platform for a defence customer.
