Lead from the front. Build meaningful software. Shape how we deliver.
 
TXP is growing, and we’re looking for an experienced Lead Full Stack Developer (Java) to play a key role in delivering high-quality solutions across internal and customer-facing projects. This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll combine deep technical expertise with the ability to guide, mentor, and influence a development team.
 
If you enjoy owning technical delivery, working across modern Java and React stacks, and helping teams do their best work in an agile environment, this could be a great next step.
 
The Role
As a Lead Full Stack Developer, you’ll take technical ownership of projects from design through to deployment, working closely with Delivery Managers, Project Managers, and Scrum Masters. You’ll remain hands-on while providing direction, ensuring quality, and embedding best practice across the team.
 
You’ll work on a mix of TXP internal initiatives and client projects, collaborating closely with stakeholders and building strong, trusted relationships.
 
What You’ll Be Doing

Leading the technical delivery of a development team against agreed backlogs and timelines
Designing, building, testing, and deploying high-quality applications using Java and React
Providing day-to-day technical guidance, accountability, and mentorship to other developers
Championing best practice across coding standards, testing, CI/CD, and agile delivery
Working within Scrum teams, actively contributing to sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives
Ensuring delivery meets agreed quality, functionality, and time objectives, escalating risks where needed
Collaborating with TXP colleagues, customers, partners, and suppliers to meet business commitments
Supporting the ongoing development of technical standards, policies, and ways of working
Helping grow technical capability and knowledge across the team 
What We’re Looking For
 
Essential experience:

Proven experience leading a technical delivery team
Strong, hands-on background in Java (including Java 1.6 / 1.8)
Experience building RESTful APIs and working with Spring
Good knowledge of React or another modern JavaScript framework
Strong understanding of microservices architecture
Experience with build and deployment tooling such as Maven
Exposure to containerisation technologies (Docker and/or Kubernetes)
Solid experience working in Scrum / agile environments
Experience with unit testing (JUnit,Mockito), TDD, and CI practices
Strong grasp of software design, implementation, and deployment principles 
Desirable experience:

Cloud platforms such as Azure and/or AWS
Oracle PL/SQL
Linux / bash scripting
Technical architecture or integration experience
Exposure to AI / LLM tooling 
About You

A proven developer with a track record of delivering quality solutions
Comfortable working at both a detailed, hands-on level and a broader system level
A logical problem solver who cares deeply about quality and maintainability
Able to explain complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders
A strong communicator who builds trust with colleagues and customers
Proactive, organised, and able to manage multiple priorities
Passionate about mentoring others and contributing to team success
