A biotech company based in Melbourn seeks a Software Team Lead to drive software development in cell and gene therapy manufacturing. This full-time role involves leading complex software projects, mentoring junior engineers, and ensuring high software quality through agile practices. The ideal candidate will have strong experience in software design, development, and testing, along with knowledge of compliance in the biotech field. Join us in a collaborative and innovative environment offering excellent employee benefits.
Cell therapies have been shown to cure devastating and previously untreatable diseases like cancer by re-programming the patient's own immune system. Giving more patients access to these life-saving therapies requires a revolution in manufacturing and process automation.
Cellular Origins , a TTP Company, is enabling scalable, cost-effective and efficient manufacture of cell and gene therapies. Our technology addresses the challenges associated with manufacturing at scale with an elegant robotic manufacturing automation solution that reduces cost and labour, eliminates human error, and increases efficiency.
In this role you’ll work in close collaboration with the software architect and product owner to develop the architectural runway and translate it into actionable user stories. You’ll spearhead new software projects, taking the technical lead and ensuring projects run to plan and the team is delivering at a fast, sustainable pace.
You’ll participate in software planning activities with workstream leads to organise software sprints and deliverables. You’ll lead and mentor software team members on daily software development activities, ranging from working on software control and interfaces for cell therapy modules at the low level of factory control, to higher level factory operation, automation and orchestration. Participating and facilitating discussion and activities relevant to software architecture design, planning, quality assurance and lifecycle engineering.
You’ll champion our software quality through modern agile practices, including test-driven development and continuous integration/automated testing, as well as effective pair programming across the team. You’ll maintain good oversight of all software development across Cellular Origins, working closely with a multidisciplinary team of engineers across the business to ensure the software deliverables. Junior team members will look to you for guidance to help them deliver consistent high-quality software.
Lastly, the role will involve leading software documentation efforts in collaboration with senior leadership, ensuring all documentation meets development plans and regulatory standards.
You’ll hold significant experience in leading and developing complex software projects. This will include experience in software design, development or testing – having been involved in product development through most stages of the System Engineering Lifecycle. You’ll show familiarity with designing distributed systems using message-oriented systems or event-based systems.
