Job description

About Remarkable

We areRemarkable– a leader in digital transformation, helping businesses create cutting-edge customer experiences through platforms like Sitecore, Optimizely, and Microsoft CRM. We specialise in using data-driven strategies and innovative technology to shape the future of customer engagement. With a focus on cloud, commerce, and scalable solutions, Remarkable Group partners with organisations to bring personalized digital experiences to life. If you're passionate about helping brands grow and thrive in a dynamic digital landscape, this is a place where you can make an impact!

We’re a collaborative, forward-thinking team that embraces new ideas, stays curious, and constantly explores the latest tools and trends. If you’re passionate about digital marketing, enjoy getting stuck into both the creative and analytical sides of search, and are ready to grow your skills alongside senior specialists, this is your next move.

This is an exciting opportunity to lead the marketing team responsible for the growth of a global digital agency. You will lead the operational decisions within the Marketing team, whilst closely managing existing projects and campaigns to ensure successful delivery and demonstrable results. You’ll need to be ‘hands-on’ and relish the opportunity to develop a small, growing team of talented marketers.

Key Accountabilities

• Architecting, developing, leading and (where necessary) transitioning solutions for client delivery teams.

• Ensuring well-built solution architectures are implemented for all client deliveries, helping technical teams build on time, on budget and to a high standard.

• Implementing SitecoreAI (and associated technologies) software architectures and development solutions.

• Developing and implementing Sitecore integration blueprints for delivery teams to adopt.

• Collaborating effectively with the wider Engineering team and broader agency.

• Ensuring documentation is captured, shared and kept up to date.

• Removing software architectural or technical solution blockers for delivery teams and clients.

• Proactively driving technical and solution improvements, with a focus on removing manual, time-consuming and repetitive work.

• Translating and communicating technical project detail for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Creating solution prototypes to minimise wasted effort and validate architectural decisions.

• Participating in and leading tangible Solution Architecture strategy and implementation.

• Supporting the wider Engineering team’s reputation for Sitecore technical excellence.

• Accountable for the timely, high-quality delivery of Sitecore-related elements and phases of software development projects.

Key Responsibilities

• Analysing requirements and determining technical and solution architecture for delivery teams.

• Analysing client technology and enterprise specifics to inform solution architecture decisions.

• Keeping up with trends in the wider solution architecture community, enabling peer-to-peer technical discussion with clients and prospects.

• Acting as the SME for common platform integrations across SitecoreAI and the wider Sitecore ecosystem.

• Ensuring a lean approach is built into architecture and solution engagements.

• Creating blueprints for Solution Architecture consultancy products — e.g. Upgradeability Assessments (including SitecoreAI migration readiness) and Enterprise Architecture Assessments.

• Supporting new business opportunities, owning the technology aspects of RFP and pitch presentations.

Skills & Competencies

Sitecore & Platform Expertise

• Strong Sitecore development expertise across the legacy Experience Platform (XP/XM) and hands-on delivery on SitecoreAI.

• SitecoreAI CMS Developer Certified — the successor to the XM Cloud Developer Certification — or actively working towards it.

• Working knowledge of the full SitecoreAI product surface — Content Hub, Sitecore Search, CDP, Personalize and Stream — and how these components integrate with one another and with external systems.

• Sitecore Search in depth — source configuration, document extractors, indexing, relevance and sorting, and widget delivery. Distinct from Solr/Lucene indexing in t legacy Sitecore platform, and not to be conflated with it.

• Experience Edge, content modelling, publishing pipelines and Sitecore PowerShell Extensions (SPE) automation.

Front-End & Head Architecture

• Architecting headless front ends against SitecoreAI using Next.js, React and TypeScript with the Sitecore Content SDK.

• Designing and operating rendering hosts — hosting choices (Vercel, Azure), preview and production separation, caching and invalidation strategy.

• Component and design-system practice, including component libraries, Storybook, and the contract between design tokens and content models.

• Treating front-end performance and quality gates — Core Web Vitals, Lighthouse CI — as an architectural concern rather than a post-delivery clean-up.

Architecture & Cloud

• TOGAF Certified (beneficial).

• Strong knowledge of architectural and design patterns, and modern coding approaches.

• Comprehensive knowledge of cloud architectures (Azure) and how they intersect with solution and technical architecture.

• Strong commercial technology expertise across Sitecore, Azure, microservices, APIs, integrations and DevOps.

• Deep understanding of microservices architecture concepts and implementation.

• Good experience with application performance, reliability, security, and deployment governance and standards.

• A strong, demonstrable understanding of the cost and consequence of technical decisions, both technologically and architecturally.

• Senior-level understanding of the architectural landscape and how the Sitecore platform and its ecosystem continue to evolve.

AI & Automation

• A practical view of how the AI capability in SitecoreAI, including Stream, changes authoring, content operations and solution design.

• Experience applying AI-assisted development tooling to delivery work — code generation, review and documentation — with a clear-eyed sense of where it helps and where it introduces risk.

• Able to assess AI features against governance, data protection and client assurance requirements.

Experience & Ways of Working

• Previous experience leading technical initiatives and delivering enterprise-scale digital products and solutions.

• Devising, architecting and implementing large-scale, complex Sitecore and non-Sitecore digital solutions, services and infrastructure.

• Solid understanding of the full software development lifecycle (Agile/Scrum).

• Experience developing web services, integrations and data exchanges within cloud platform environments (Azure).

• Experience presenting and documenting architected solutions to senior stakeholders and clients, both technical and non-technical.

• An avid problem solver with a curious technical nature.

• A collaborative worker, keen to work within a diverse, multi-talented team.

Personal Attributes

• Curious and self-driven, always looking to learn and stay ahead of a fast-moving platform landscape.

• Comfortable balancing hands-on technical depth with clear, confident communication.

• A natural collaborator who builds trust quickly with both colleagues and clients.

• Pragmatic under pressure, with a lean, problem-solving mindset.

• Genuinely invested in the quality and reputation of the work they deliver.
