* 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

* 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 is a great blend between hands on development and leadership, and will be perfect for someone stepping into Engineering Management. The company is planning on expanding next year, so this is a great time to elevate your career.
