The NRLA: Who we are
The NRLA is the UK’s largest organisation representing private residential landlords, a community of over 110,000 members across England and Wales. We’re on a mission to transform how landlords manage their properties, stay compliant, and operate day to day. And that means building the next generation of digital tools that will define the private rented sector for years to come.
We’re not here to be average. We’re carving out a bold digital path and building the foundations of what will become the operating system for the Private Rental Sector (PRS). To do that, we need talented, curious, forward-thinking developers who want to stretch themselves, learn new stacks, and help shape genuinely meaningful technology.
Recognised with Investors in People Gold and named by The Sunday Times as one of the UK’s best companies to work for, we offer a supportive, ambitious environment where innovation isn’t just welcomed, it’s expected. With hybrid working from our Manchester and London hubs, you’ll join a team that values professional growth, collaboration, and the desire to push boundaries.
If you want to build purposeful tech, upskill across multiple modern stacks, and play a key role in shaping the NRLA’s digital future, we’d love to hear from you.

Adword Job Title: Software Engineer Location: London (hybrid from their Central St Giles office, 3 days onsite 2 remote) Job type: 06 months contract Job Description As a Software Engineer, you have influence well beyond yourself. You often own all aspects of your immediate area of software engineering work. You are distinguished by your ability to self-direct your technical contributions as well as plan and scope for a project. You act as a point of contact for your cross-functional partners. Faced with a problem, you will scope it, research possible solutions and technologies, and recommend a solution that includes both the short-term and long-term needs. Responsibilities include: - Write product or system development code without supervision, conduct testing beyond unit testing (e.g. integration, performance, stress, security, load, fuzz), design code to allow for easy testing and write test case descriptions. Review other engineers' code and provide feedback to ensure best practices (e.g., style guidelines, checking code in, accuracy, testability, and efficiency). Identify critical components and tech debt with high carrying costs. Implement or guide remedies to improve long-term maintainability, modifiability, etc. Managers also oversee their team's coding, testing, and reviewing. - Take ownership of rolling out a project to completion, contributing to qualification, end-user documentation, production deployment/monitoring, process automation, and customer support as needed. Set up or improve test/monitoring/survey infrastructure, systems or practices. Consider engineering excellence (e.g., code health, low toil, system maintainability and scalability over time). Contribute to existing documentation or educational content and adapt content based on product/program updates and user feedback. Triage product or system issues and debug/track/resolve by analyzing the sources of issues and the impact on hardware, network, or service operations and quality. Managers ensure their teams follow the above to drive product excellence. - Design systems within the scope of their area. Clarify problems to understand gaps, break down problems into solvable parts and assess trade-offs to ensure coherent design, participate in or drive design reviews with peers and stakeholders to decide amongst available technologies. Managers also oversee and guide their teams in systems design. For those with employee reports, the amount of direct, technical contributions will be balanced against the amount of management responsibility required in the role. - Set and achieve business goals Deliver business impact for us by setting, communicating, and achieving team priorities that support organizational goals. Align with partners and make key decisions as needed to achieve team objectives. - Support and uphold inclusive team norms Ensure that team norms create belonging, psychological safety, and respect.

Key Responsibilities Engage and manage a wide range of stakeholders including: Other Rail Systems packages interlocking, train detection, ATO Operations and end users signallers, control system operators Ergonomics and Safety Assurance teams Network Rail and external regulators Provide technical assurance of Traffic Management System (TMS) deliverables and activities Work closely with other CCS system leads to develop an integrated CCS solution (ETCS, ATO, interlocking, train detection, etc.) Develop, manage and monitor compliance with contract requirements, specifications and standards Help develop the Traffic management System with Siemens, assist in problem solving and developing solutions. Contribute to the identification and management of technical risk associated with TMS engineering works Provide authoritative technical advice on TMS to the wider HS2 organisation, suppliers and external stakeholders Communicate effectively with engineers, project managers, directors, regulators and operators Required Profile Overview You will be a Signalling Control System Engineer with a strong Traffic Management focus, acting as a Traffic Management Subject Matter Expert. Experience may come from a contractor/manufacturer, client or consultancy background. While early-stage design experience is valuable, HS2 is particularly interested in candidates who have been involved in detailed design, testing and commissioning, and therefore understand operational end-requirements. You must have a working appreciation of wider CCS subsystems (e.g. interlocking, train detection, ETCS), sufficient to manage interfaces and system integration. Key Skills Specialist technical leadership in Traffic Management Systems (TMS) Ability to operate as a Discipline Owner / Subject Matter Expert for TMS Strong stakeholder communication skills, translating complex TMS concepts into clear, practical explanations across technical and non technical audiences. Application of standards, safety and environmental principles across the CCS lifecycle Understanding of information management, modelling, data security and cyber security principles Awareness of data creation, transformation and visualisation concepts Sound judgement in knowing when to seek input from other CCS Subject Matter Experts Knowledge & Technical Understanding Common Safety Method (CSM) for risk evaluation and assessment Ergonomic design principles for safe system operation In-depth understanding of Traffic Management Systems and their relationship to railway operations Knowledge of ETCS, ATO and high-speed rail signalling challenges Experience of signalling control systems for: Network Rail London Underground European high-speed or metro systems Application of national and international technical standards for rail control systems Awareness of emerging and future TMS and CCS technologies Chartered Engineer (or working towards) or equivalent professional experience Experience Delivery or development of Traffic Management / Train Control Systems in rail (LUL, Network Rail, High Speed Or European train Setting). Test and evaluation of TMS technical solutions Engineering delivery to cost, schedule and quality targets Roles requiring technical decision-making, prioritisation and independent judgement Making strategic recommendations to governance and assurance panels
