Champion quality and operational excellence Apply DevOps practices and contribute to CI/CD, automation, and observability as a natural part of how you work. Write and maintain tests (unit, integration) and apply security best practices in day-to-day development. Participate in incident management rotas, providing hands-on technical support and clear communication during high-pressure situations. Support the team Work collaboratively with colleagues across experience levels - giving and receiving support, pairing, and sharing knowledge as part of a team that grows together. Play your part in growing the team - contributing to interviews and helping new engineers settle in quickly. What We're Looking For Experience of some but not necessarily all of the following: Technical capability Solid engineering experience, with the ability to work independently on features across frontend and backend - including strong problem-solving and debugging skills. Flexibility to move across front-end and back-end technologies, adapting quickly to different parts of the stack as the team and product evolve. Familiarity with our core stack - a Java Spring Boot and AWS back end, with a TypeScript/React front end - or a comparable modern stack, with the appetite to move across technologies. Exposure to Kubernetes and Kafka a plus. Knowledge of microservices, APIs, and cloud-based deployment. CI/CD, containerisation, and DevOps practices as part of how you work day to day. Security best practices applied in day-to-day development. An interest in AI-assisted development tooling and how it can improve productivity and code quality. Collaboration and communication Good communication skills - able to collaborate across disciplines and express technical ideas clearly. A constructive approach to giving and receiving feedback, and a habit of sharing knowledge with colleagues. An inclination to document your work and decisions to support the wider team.

We're creating a new engineering team to build innovative business-critical solutions that will power Bauer Media's audio platform of the future. Our team is built around squads, each aligned to a distinct value stream, with a layer of cross-squad roles - people whose expertise and support spans the whole team. Each squad will be led by a Product Manager and Lead Engineer, working in partnership and jointly accountable for their squad's work and outcomes. Squads are intentionally small - typically around five to six engineers - keeping them focused, collaborative, and able to move quickly. Our team thrives on collaboration, innovation, and a shared commitment to delivering high-quality, scalable solutions, working closely with product and technology peers to ensure our platforms meet the evolving needs of the business and our international markets. The Difference You Will Make As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll play a pivotal role in laying the technical foundations of this new engineering team. You'll lead hands-on development of infrastructure and prototyping work, mentor engineers, and collaborate across disciplines to deliver secure, resilient, and high-performing systems. Working closely with your squad, you will ensure the squad's work aligns with our technical direction and product priorities, contributing to a culture of continuous improvement, shared ownership, and engineering excellence. You will play a key role in helping to create a diverse, welcoming and inclusive environment that is psychologically safe, where everyone can be their authentic selves and do their best work, every day.

Play your part in growing the team - contributing to interviews and helping new engineers get up to speed quickly. Champion quality and operational excellence Champion DevOps practices, CI/CD, and a culture of automation and observability as a natural part of how you build. Lead on testing strategies and uphold security standards day to day. Participate in incident management rotas, providing hands-on technical support and clear communication during high-pressure situations. What We're Looking For Experience of some but not necessarily all of the following: Technical capability Solid hands-on engineering experience, with active proficiency across frontend and backend development - enough to lead by example and contribute to technical decisions. Experience with our core stack - a Java Spring Boot, AWS, Kubernetes and Kafka back end, with a TypeScript/React front end. Experience designing and building services within a microservices or domain-driven architecture - defining service boundaries and working with asynchronous, event-driven communication (e.g. via Kafka) - and an understanding of how those decisions play out once services are running in production. CI/CD, containerisation, and modern DevOps practices applied as part of everyday delivery. Security best practices embedded in day-to-day development. An interest in AI-assisted development tooling and how it can improve productivity and code quality. Collaboration and communication Experience mentoring engineers and supporting their growth, with an awareness of how to adapt your approach to different people and experience levels.
