Join to apply for the Software Development Engineer II - TSAYS role at Tesco Technology

Tesco’s Scan As You Shop service is an in-store
experience that lets customers build their basket on a handheld device during
their shopping journey so that they can keep a close eye on their budget and
skip the queues at checkout. Since late 2021, we’ve brought the solution
entirely in house, and we’re now live in over 800 stores across the UK and the Republic
of Ireland, with plans to move into Central Europe this year.

The engineering team owns the handset application,
which is built on Android OS and consumes data from our Retail Platform
enterprise APIs, as well as a few different technology components that support
the solution. All the engineers in the team ultimately take ownership of both the
frontend and backend systems in our remit.

We’re looking for a new team member, preferably
with a background in Android development, that can help us evolve and scale our
systems as we navigate a wide range of challenges in the context of store
technology.

We’re a friendly team that takes collaboration and
agility seriously, looking for the right person to help us move into an
exciting new chapter!
