## Description

We're now looking for a Software Engineer with an interest in security, quality, and platform maturity to join our team. This is a hybrid role that bridges hands-on software engineering with modern engineering practices such as secure-by-design development, platform tooling, and continuous improvement.

 * Our Platforms Team, helping improve how software is built, secured, and supported

This means influencing standards, improving tooling, and helping teams adopt better ways of working while staying grounded in real delivery., To apply please submit your CV and complete your application ensuring that you provide clear examples against the criteria questions, all appointments will be based on merit. Our short-listing process is anonymised, so please do not include your name or contact details on your CV. If any personal details are included these will be visible to the hiring manager.
