About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

You will need a real commitment to working with customers and product people to deliver well engineered solutions that you are proud of, which are a joy to inherit, maintain and extend.
This role requires strong engineering skills, the discipline to think critically and independently, with a willingness to engage in new ideas and unfamiliar technical challenges.
You will also need to be able to discuss system and software design reasoning with an open mind, based on customer and product considerations.
You'll be joining a team of experienced engineers and will find the conversations you have are underpinned by deep levels of technical knowledge, curiosity and a satisfaction of learning from similar minds.
You will also enjoy the company of a strong product team and together you will discover and unpack the needs, goals and frustrations of our customers in order to deliver high quality and valuable solutions that we are proud of and they love to use.
You’re empowered not only to step up to lead, but to also step up to follow: You won’t be forced to accept things the way they are, but you will need the insight and maturity to determine when best to have backbone, or when to disagree and commit with the team.
Hiring is also a collective decision by the people you talk to in the process.
