Job description

The Software Engineer will join an embedded team within Secora Garage to design, build, and deliver full-stack software solutions for the Client. This role goes beyond delivering to a spec — you'll need to understand end-user and organisational needs well enough to help frame problems and requirements, then deliver the user stories and functionality defined for the platform, working closely with Asset Specialists and AI engineers as you get up to speed on unfamiliar domains such as SAP, knowledge graphs, and answer set programming.

Key responsibilities

• Deliver the user stories and functionality defined for the Project.
• Help frame problems and requirements by understanding end-user and organisational needs, not just executing a brief.
• Build and maintain data pipelines, APIs, and ETL processes integrating operational and enterprise data sources.
• Write clean, well-documented, full-stack code across front-end (React) and back-end (Python) components.
• Use agentic coding tools responsibly, keeping human judgement and review central to the process.
• Support Pilot delivery as required, through to build phases.
• Collaborate with Asset Specialists, AI engineers, and other developers to define and implement technical solutions.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies — stand-ups, sprints, and retrospectives.
• Design and build full-stack features across Python and React, backed by solid ETL and SQL work.
• Develop and maintain data pipelines and integrations on Azure, our primary cloud platform.

About you

• Around 4-5 years' experience in full-stack software engineering.
• Strong Python and React skills, with solid ETL and SQL capability.
• Experience with Git/GitHub and standard version control workflows.
• Practical experience on a major cloud platform (Azure preferred; AWS/GCP experience transferable).
• Demonstrated effective, judgement-led use of agentic coding tools such as Copilot or Claude Code.
• Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Tertiary qualification in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, or equivalent practical experience.
• Genuine curiosity and willingness to learn in fast-paced, real-world projects.
• Strong collaborator in a small, multidisciplinary team.
• Resourceful, self-directed, and proactive about raising blockers early.
