- Proactively identify and remove technical and delivery impediments, recognising risks early and communicating issues clearly to programme and delivery stakeholders.
- Identify process inefficiencies and drive pragmatic, scalable improvements to improve team effectiveness and delivery outcomes.
Requirements
- Hands-on development experience with Java, ideally using recent language versions and modern frameworks.
- Experience in software engineering, with a proven track record of designing, developing and deploying backend applications to production.
- Experience delivering code within a microservices-based architecture, contributing to both individual services and the wider platform design.
