• Collaborate across product, DevOps, QA, and engineering to ensure high-quality delivery.
• Mentor engineers and promote a culture of technical excellence and strategic thinking.
• Evaluate emerging technologies and patterns, providing clear rationale for adoption or avoidance.

• Familiarity with frontend architecture (Angular or similar) and its integration with backend services.
• Solid grounding in data architecture, both SQL and NoSQL; experience with data warehousing and ADF is advantageous.

What’s on Offer:

• High-trust, flexible working environment (hybrid)

• Cycle to work scheme and employee wellbeing initiatives
• Team events, socials, and lifestyle perks
