The Job in Short

This is a Senior+ Engineer who leads people, not a people

manager who used to code. If you cannot open an IDE, spin up

an agentic coding session in Cursor or Claude Code, debug a

production issue or support a customer implementation

alongside our last-mile Services teams, this is not the

right role. You are the captain of a single squad:

accountable for delivery predictability, engineering quality

and the growth of every engineer in your team.

We are looking for technologists who want to stay deep in

the technology whilst taking on genuine people leadership

and delivery accountability. You will spend roughly half

your time on system design, architecture and technical

decision-making, with around a fifth of your time in the

codebase directly through code reviews, debugging and

unblocking. The remaining time is invested in your people:

coaching, calibration, hiring and building a team that

delivers predictably and sustainably.

Meet the Job

Technical Leadership (circa 70% of the role)

● System Design and Architecture: Lead and participate in

design reviews, RFCs and architecture decisions alongside

Staff Engineers. Ensure security and scalability are

embedded from the start.

● Hands-on Contribution: Maintain your technical credibility

through active code reviews, debugging production issues and

unblocking your team. You write code, read code and

understand the systems your squad owns.

● Quality and Engineering Excellence: Champion modern

engineering practices including CI/CD pipelines, test

automation, observability and quality gates. Drive

production-readiness and robust release management.

● BS Detector: Use your technical depth to spot unrealistic

estimates, fragile designs or risk blind spots before they

become delivery problems.

● Emergency Response: During critical incidents, jump in

technically or coordinate the response. You are comfortable

leading under pressure.

● AI-Native Engineering: Lead adoption of agentic tooling,

LLM workflows and AI automation within your squad to

accelerate the development lifecycle. Experiment with code

generation, test automation and AI-assisted productivity

tools.

People Leadership (circa 10% of the role)

● Talent Development: Own meaningful 1:1s, performance

calibration, and evidence-based career development for your

squad of 6 to 9 engineers. Create tailored growth plans and

act as a genuine coach.

● Team Health: Build and sustain psychological safety, team

resilience and a healthy engineering culture. Detect and

resolve friction early. Maintain sustainable pace even under

delivery pressure.

● Hiring and Succession: Manage hiring decisions and

onboarding to build teams with the right technical

competencies and seniority balance. Plan for succession and

knowledge continuity.

● Conflict Resolution: Mediate interpersonal or cross-team

conflicts early to protect team cohesion and delivery

momentum.

Delivery and Execution (circa 20% of the role)

● Delivery Mastery: Optimise the squad's idea-to-production

cycle time. Strengthen delivery predictability through

empirical measurement, process improvement and proactive

blocker removal.

● Stakeholder Partnership: Collaborate closely with Product

Managers and Domain Architects to translate business needs

into technical outcomes. Push back on unrealistic scope with

data, not opinion.

● Continuous Improvement: Drive improvement in delivery

capability, operating models and tooling. Promote visibility

and transparency through effective tracking and

communication.
