We are partnered with an established organisation to look for a Senior Software Engineer (Backend / Full-Stack) to join their technical center of excellence. In this role, you will be responsible for designing resilient system architectures, developing prototypes to demonstrate new technological opportunities, and writing high-quality production code for large-scale digital applications.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop high-level prototypes, design scalable and resilient system architectures, and write production-quality code.
• Manage system deployments to cloud infrastructure and ensure systems are maintained to a high level of availability and reliability.
• Establish developer operations (DevOps) best practices, provide technical guidance across product teams, and mentor other engineers.
• Identify new initiatives that add significant systemic value, design technical systems that work effectively around unique architectural or delivery constraints, and advocate engineering ideas to key technical stakeholders.
• Contribute to ongoing capability building and assist with engineering recruitment processes.
