The role exists to bring coherence to a distributed platform landscape, ensuring that internal engineering platforms, cloud-native infrastructure, and enterprise software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions are integrated in a consistent, scalable, and well-governed manner. The Principal Platform Engineer is the technical authority on platform integration and convergence, influencing design decisions across teams and functions.
Key Accountabilities<ul><li>
Define and maintain a platform convergence strategy that articulates the current-state landscape, the target architecture, and a credible transition path &mdash; enabling bp's engineering platforms and SaaS solutions to operate as an integrated whole.</li><li>
Lead architectural design and decision-making at the intersection of internal platforms and enterprise SaaS, establishing integration patterns, data contracts, and governance standards that apply consistently across the platform estate.</li><li>
Act as the principal technical authority for platform engineering across the digital delivery organisation, providing expert guidance on platform design, cloud-native patterns, and systems integration to engineering teams and senior stakeholders.</li><li>

Collaborate with AI engineering, software engineering, and external vendor and partner teams to ensure that platform architecture decisions enable and do not constrain the delivery of business and AI-powered capabilities.</li></ul>
This is a role with organisation-wide technical influence. The successful candidate will work closely with engineering managers, delivery teams, and external partners across a complex, multi-platform environment. The role requires a balance of critical thinking and hands-on technical credibility &mdash; candidates should be comfortable both authoring architecture strategy documents and engaging deeply in technical design discussions.<h1 class="jobSectionHeader">
What you will bring...</h1><ul><li>
Extensive experience in platform engineering (including Kubernetes) and the design, delivery, and operation of large-scale, multi-component platform estates in a cloud-native environment.</li><li>
Proven enterprise architecture capability, including experience producing target-state architecture strategies and navigating complex system landscapes spanning internal platforms and third-party SaaS.</li><li>
Deep knowledge of cloud-native architecture patterns: containerisation and orchestration, service mesh, API gateway design, event streaming, and infrastructure-as-code.</li><li>
Demonstrable experience integrating enterprise SaaS solutions &mdash; including ERP or business application platforms &mdash; with internally developed systems, covering API, identity, and data integration patterns.</li><li>
Track record of operating as a senior technical authority in a large organisation, influencing architecture and engineering decisions at scale without direct management responsibility.</li><li>
Strong communication and documentation skills, with the ability to convey complex architectural concepts clearly to technical peers, delivery teams, and senior business stakeholders.</li><li>
