- Applying strong engineering discipline through automated testing, CI/CD pipelines, code quality standards, observability, and operational resilience to support PRoboT as a production‑critical service
- Collaborating closely with the Product Engineering Lead to establish engineering standards, development practices, and technical direction as the product and team scale
- Partnering with cross‑functional stakeholders across pricing, actuarial, modelling, data, and architecture teams to translate business needs into robust technical solutions
- Ensuring responsible and compliant product outcomes by designing transparent workflows, outputs, and user journeys that support clear, accurate decision‑making
- Supporting Consumer Duty accountability through strong governance, controls over automated outputs, and careful consideration of user and business impact
Who we’re looking for
- A hands‑on full‑stack software engineer with strong experience building and supporting modern, product‑led applications in agile or iterative delivery teams
- Proven experience designing, building, and operating production systems on cloud platforms, with Azure experience strongly preferred
- Solid expertise in front‑end development using modern frameworks such as React (or equivalent) and back‑end development using languages and frameworks such as .NET, Python, or Node.js
- Strong experience with APIs, distributed systems, and enterprise integrations, including secure authentication and authorisation patterns in enterprise environments
- A practitioner of high‑quality engineering and DevOps practices, including CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and production support for business‑critical services
- Experience owning features or services end‑to‑end, from initial design and development through to live operation and ongoing improvement
- Comfortable collaborating with non‑technical domain experts (such as actuaries, analysts, or business stakeholders) to translate complex requirements into robust technical solutions
- An interest in, or experience with, AI‑enabled or data‑driven products, regulated environments, or risk‑sensitive domains, with Azure certifications or a relevant degree considered a plus
