You will take a leading role in the design, delivery, and support of cutting-edge green energy software as part of a product-led, continuous delivery lifecycle. Working with key stakeholders inside and outside the company, you will help shape the design and architecture of this rapidly evolving software product and take a leading role in implementing this design as part of day-to-day development efforts. You will also be a leading voice in our continuous improvement as a software delivery function – using your experience to guide how our engineering policies and practices evolve. This is a position that requires passion, enthusiasm and a genuine desire for growth. This is a multi-functional team where we work with a breadth of stakeholders across our business and our customers, and no two days are the same. The following is required in this role: • As a senior member of the Engineering team, you will take a leading role in the delivery of scalable, reliable software at pace by: o Building new software features and services in collaboration with the wider Engineering team, typically in pair- or mob-programming sessions. o Working with Product stakeholders to translate product requirements into technical designs. o Acting as a leading voice in the refinement of large areas of development focus into deliverable iterations. o Leading prototyping and feasibility studies for new capabilities, including being a major voice for when to build/buy/partner. o Assisting in the training and upskilling of other staff on your areas of expertise, such as through code reviews, pair programming, or direct coaching. o Participating in regular product demo and feedback sessions with external stakeholders. o Being a leading voice in internal continuous improvement discussions such as retrospectives. o Acting as a technical subject matter expert and point of contact for both internal and external stakeholders. o Writing appropriate test automation code to ensure reliability of Spine’s services. o Supporting the services you develop as part of team-wide out-of-hours efforts. • As a member of the wider Spine team, you will also act more broadly to help achieve our collective success: o Supporting high-level corporate goals and objectives outside of Engineering o Contributing proactively where your skills, experience, and enthusiasm allow you to make an impact. To be successful in this role, we are looking for someone with the following: • Proven experience building and operating java-based applications in an enterprise environment (Spring boot or Micronaut preferred), ideally as microservices within a SaaS platform. • Good working understanding of software architecture and design patterns, ideally within a Domain Driven Design (DDD) context. • Opinionated on good practices around resilience, scalability, and maintainability of large-scale software systems. • Experience working with container management solutions (Kubernetes, ECS, etc), ideally within a managed cloud platform (EKS, GKE, etc). • Good understanding of DevOps practices and Continuous Delivery (CD). • Confident communicator with internal and external stakeholders. • At your best working in a small, technically challenging, and cross-functional development teams. • Committed to collaborative problem solving, sophisticated design, and product quality. • Excited to be part of the early days of a new tech startup, with all the uncertainty and opportunity that entails. In addition, one or more of the following would be great to have: • Experience with frontend UI design and development (MUI / React preferred). • Familiarity with Data Engineering patterns, such Data Products and Data Pipelines. • Experience with platform-as-a-product delivery or platform engineering. • Familiarity with Machine Learning Engineering tools and frameworks. • Experience with microservice networking and service meshes (such as Istio). • Well-informed on security considerations in a cloud native environment, with prior experience with related tooling (e.g. OPA, IRSA). Don’t worry if you don’t check every box listed here – we’re looking for talented and enthusiastic people to complement our existing team and would be excited to find out what other experience you bring to the table.
