  • Manage the effective use of modern behavioural analytics, martech and experimentation tools (like Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and LaunchDarkly) 

We're interested in hearing from people who: 

  • Are expert hands-on engineers with deep experience in NextJS and/or Expo, TypeScript, GraphQL and CloudFlare. 

  • Have expertise in working on or have delivered a GenAI chat experience. 

  • Have strong engineering foundations in testing, security, architecture, and robust design, and are excited to build, lead, and shape high-performing teams who learn, collaborate, innovate, and grow to have a large positive impact even in a challenging regulated environment. 

  • Are product-minded technology-leaders who are skilled at balancing stakeholder interests, strategic value, and customer outcomes. 

  • Have strong team leadership and mentoring skills, with a track record of building collaborative, high-performing engineering teams. 

  • Are persistent, demonstrate grit and a can-do attitude to solving some of the biggest challenges facing the business. 

If you thrive on the rapidly advancing world of emerging tech, continuous learning and strategic agility – then we'll give you the platform to leverage state-of-the-art tools and insights to solve real-world challenges.
