Job Description
Avanti recruitment is currently working with a leading award-winning FinTech company based near Epsom, who are looking for an Engineering Manager who is looking to stay close to the code.
You’ll spend between 30-50% of your time coding, and the rest of your time on people leadership and delivery management. This role is central to a major modernisation project, moving from a legacy monolithic application to a modern microservices and cloud-based architecture.
This role will require you on-site 4 days per week, with 1 day remote working.
Your responsibilities:
* Own delivery within a small, high-performing team (currently 3 developers + 1 SRE).
* Stay hands-on with Java, Spring Boot, microservices, AWS, Docker, Kubernetes and guide best practice.
* Run daily stand up meetings
* Lead on system design and architecture for services and modernisation of legacy code
* Provide day to day technical and people leadership (Mentoring, 1-to-1s, conflict resolution and career progression)
* Implement escalation and incident management processes, ensuring resilience and reliability
* Report on progress to the Head of Technology, and keep them up to date with progress reports
* Act as a bridge between development, operations and other business functions (e.g. Trading, Change)
Experience required
* Must have people leadership experience (1-2-1’s, escalation point, disciplinary action when needed etc)
* Strong hands on Java coding skills
* Experience in either cloud platforms (AWS preferred), or DevOps experience Docker/Kubernetes & CI/CD Pipelines
* Track record of leading teams or projects, this could be as a Tech Lead / Principal Engineer or Engineering Manager
* Exposure to incident management, monitoring and resilience tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK etc)
* Awareness of Security – dependency scanning, vulnerability management
* Strong communication skills, able to collaborate with stakeholder, present updates and represent engineering in wider discussions
This role will have an element of hands-on development so you must be comfortable still coding, as this could take up 30-50% of your time. The company is planning on expanding in the next year, so this is a great time to elevate your career.
Salary up to £100,000 + 27 days holiday.
