We're seeking a talented Principal Software Engineer to join our dynamic team as part of our multi-year Enterprise Transformation Program.

  • Speed up delivery and empower teams by simplifying complex legacy systems.
  • Ensure always-on, dependable channels through robust, scalable technology solutions.

As a Principal Engineer, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping technical strategies and driving solutions to address the program's most complex challenges.

We're Interested in People Who:

  • Have worked with event-driven architectures and understand their real-world applications.
  • Have experience in managing microservices in a DevSecOps environment.
  • Approach technical debt pragmatically, balancing commercial priorities and innovation.
  • Can influence and guide technical direction and strategy across the business.
  • Have solved complex technical problems, including integrating new tools and phasing out outdated systems.
  • Promote diverse, inclusive teams while encouraging innovation and challenging the status quo.

Skills Required:

  • Building 3-tier applications across cloud (AWS preferred) and on-premise environments, particularly with:
  • Frontend: React, Redux (preferred) or Angular.
  • Backend: .Net Core.
  • Databases: SQL and NoSQL, with experience in both administration and usage.
  • Designing and implementing microservices and highly scalable APIs.
  • Using programming and scripting languages like JavaScript, TypeScript, Go, or Python.
  • Working with CI/CD tools such as GitHub Actions, Octopus etc.
  • Leveraging IaC tools like Terraform or CloudFormation.
  • Driving quality with automated testing (Unit and Regression Testing).
  • Designing robust systems and solutions with a focus on security and scalability.
  • Ensuring observability and performance monitoring.
  • Promoting code quality through peer programming, code reviews, and automated release pipelines.
  • Mentoring and developing the next generation of engineers.

If you thrive on creating lasting, impactful technology and want to be part of an inclusive team that values innovation and growth, we'd love to hear from you.
