The Department

Developer Engineering is a function of the CTO organisation. Our mission is to make it easy and enjoyable for software engineering teams to go from a business idea to delivering an innovative product solution. The main goals are to improve and upgrade our tools, streamline our processes, automate and strengthen our controls, and help development teams adopt modern working methods.

The Team

The Codified Controls team within Developer Engineering is revolutionizing how we manage policies, standards, and controls through a company-wide "everything-as-code" initiative. This greenfield program offers a unique opportunity to significantly reduce process friction, errors, and manual effort. We build and deliver automated controls, developing both the core technology and supporting infrastructure. As a product-focused team, we prioritize user needs and iterative development through close collaboration. We seek engineers with proven experience in product-oriented environments and a demonstrated ability to empathize with users.

Joining us as a Senior Software Engineer, you will have the opportunity to build a high-profile product, work closely with a talented group of peers, and have room to develop your skills. We believe that our Engineers should be involved in all steps of our product from idea to execution, and you will be a key part along every step of that journey. You will also work with Generative AI technologies, such as GPT-4 or Gemini, embedding their capabilities through prompt engineering in our systems.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and test software applications

• Set high standards for quality software and excellent user experiences
• Stay updated on the latest development trends and technologies

• Work across teams to promote an everything-as-code and controls-focused mindset
• Support cultural change, fostering critical thinking about controls and processes, and encouraging continuous improvement

Characteristics:

• Effective problem-solving skills
• Excellent communication and collaboration abilities
• Strong product mindset, prioritizing user needs
• Connected to and eager to implement latest technologies like Generative AI
• Pragmatic and creative in risk management
• Growth-oriented, adaptable, and eager to learn
• Enthusiastic and empathetic, building trust
• Advocate for inclusion and diversity
• Self-starter, effective in team and remote work environments

Experience:

• Proven Full Stack Software Engineer experience in product teams
• Strong experience with Go, Python, and React in production
• Experience in agile development environments
• Knowledge of distributed systems, event-driven architectures, microservices, logs, SQL, NoSQL, and DevSecOps
