Job summary

GlobalLogic in the UK is seeking engineers to join our AI-native delivery teams. You will work across discovery and modernisation, building subagents and integrating agentic tooling like Claude Code in real projects. The role supports a hybrid work model.

We offer private healthcare, a comprehensive pension, training budgets, volunteering days, and a culture that values fairness, diversity, and career progression across global client engagements.

Qualifications

• Strong software engineering background with production experience in modern languages/frameworks (TypeScript, Python, Java, or similar).
• Hands-on experience with Claude Code (or equivalent agentic CLI tooling) — writing custom skills, building subagents, configuring MCP servers, and integrating AI tooling into development workflows.
• Demonstrable experience with AI-native development practices: prompt-first development, AI pair programming, agent-assisted code review.
• Solid understanding of CI/CD pipelines (GitLab), Git workflows, and platform tooling — able to modernise and improve existing setups.
• Experience working embedded within engineering teams (not just isolated delivery).
• Ability to coach and upskill other engineers through pairing, demos, and knowledge transfer.
• Comfortable with ambiguity — able to assess an unfamiliar codebase, identify improvement opportunities, and prioritise pragmatically.

Responsibilities

• Deploy into product squads as part of the discovery and landing phase — assess current state, contribute to the transformation backlog, and begin immediate delivery alongside the team.
• Drive tech debt reduction and pipeline modernisation within the engineering team’s production codebase during the early modernisation phase.
• Author and maintain AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md context files that capture product knowledge for LLM-assisted development.
• Inject centrally-published platform assets (agents, templates, CI/CD patterns) into live repositories during the rollout phase, ensuring they integrate cleanly with existing workflows.
• Build custom Claude Code (or equivalent agentic CLI tooling) skills and subagent architectures tailored to the squad’s domain — automating repetitive tasks, code generation, and review workflows.
• Coach squad engineers on AI-native delivery habits: prompt-first PRs, agent-assisted reviews, effective use of Claude Code (or equivalent agentic CLI tooling) in daily development.
• Feed learnings, patterns, and reusable assets back to the Central Platform Team for inclusion in the centrally-available components.
