Lead agile engineering teams responsible for delivering software across projects of various sizes, often as part of platform rebuilds or squads aligned to core business goals.

Work closely with Product Owners, BI Developers, Compliance, and Operational Marketing teams to translate customer and business requirements into effective technical solutions. Embed regulatory considerations into platform design, enabling responsible product use.

What We Are Looking For Strong technical leader with solid engineering background and demonstrable experience managing skilled software engineering teams. Hands‑on development experience, comfortable writing, testing, and releasing high‑quality JavaScript and Node.js code, as well as designing and maintaining cloud infrastructure using infrastructure‑as‑code tools such as Terraform or CloudFormation.
Deep understanding of software design, system architecture, algorithms, and performance; experience building commercial web, backend, and cloud‑based solutions. Confident in Agile environments, applying modern product development lifecycle practices from prototyping through to delivery.
Effective people manager with excellent communication skills, ability to motivate, coach, and influence others. Proactive, can‑do mindset, challenging existing approaches, and continuously seeking better, more innovative ways to deliver high‑quality software.
