Job description

About the Role

Ready to help build the digital platforms that power millions of customer interactions? Eager to work with cloud-based technology, challenge the status quo, and help Britain achieve Net Zero? At EDF, Success is Personal – and with us, your career journey is yours to shape.

Our software development team is the engine of our business – and it’s growing fast. Whether you’re a Full-stack Software Engineer, or a Front-end, Back-End, or somewhere-in-between Software Developer, EDF is a home for creative innovators, free-thinkers, and #ConsultantsWhoCode.

The Opportunity

We’re recruiting for three positions across two growing teams. One team is integrating Braze, a back-end customer engagement platform. The other is focused on front-end redevelopment work on edfenergy.com, shaping the customer journey while building a scalable tech stack.

You’ll join us on a salary starting from at least £63,000 per annum, with potential for an annual bonus. This is a hybrid role, with the flexibility to work from home alongside attending one of our offices – in either #London, #Hove or #Exeter – once per month, or more frequently if you prefer.

What You’ll Be Doing

From expanding your knowledge to building great applications, you’ll enjoy a collaborative and dynamic start-up culture, combined with the stability and backing of a large organisation.

Our back-end-leaning Braze team provides an opportunity to drive the integration of a smart communications customer engagement platform while gradually decommissioning legacy systems. Upcoming projects will also include front-end development.

Joining our front-end-leaning edfenergy.com re-platform team, meanwhile, offers a chance to shape the customer journey and enhance performance and user experience as we transition from Drupal to a high-performing, accessible, and scalable stack based on AWS, Next.js and a headless CMS.

We also support you with your training and development by giving you time for training and learning on the job, attend hackathons, get involved with Dev Days, provide AWS vouchers and allow time off to attend seminars.

Who You Are

We’re looking for someone who thrives on collaboration, teamwork, and innovation. From cloud-based technology to collaborative pair programming, EDF will support your growth across the full stack – alongside opportunities to develop junior colleagues and lead small teams.

If you’re a Software Engineer with back-end development experience, we’re looking for experience in automating infrastructure using Terraform, SaaS platform integration, AWS and working with APIs.

If you have front-end focused software development experience, meanwhile, you need to have used React, TypeScript, and Next.js to create performant, accessible, and user-friendly web experiences.

Pay, Benefits and Culture

Alongside a starting salary of at least £63,000 per annum, potential for an annual bonus, and a market-leading pension scheme, your package will include customisable benefits such as electric vehicle leasing, discounted gym membership, life assurance, tech vouchers, product discounts, experience days, and more.

At EDF, we believe there are multiple definitions of what it means to succeed. That’s why we offer you the freedom to develop a career that’s unique to you. Here, Success is Personal, it’s your journey, powered by us.

Everyone is welcome at EDF; we’re committed to building a workforce that reflects gender balance, social mobility, and inclusion of minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+ communities, and those with disabilities. As a Disability Confident employer, we will support applicants requiring adjustments.

Join us and find your success at EDF!
