As a Lead Software Engineer , you'll be joining an established product delivery team dedicated to empowering our clients based primarily in local government. We’re expanding our tech team in order to provide better and more efficient services to our customers as we enter into a new phase of product expansion and capability. We recognise the need for specialisation and also believe in cross-functional Product teams: as an engineering lead you will be expected to not only provide clear leadership and direction regarding code quality, test automation, and solutions architecture, but also to be accountable for your team’s ability to deliver features and enhancements as accurately estimated increments. As part of a genuinely agile team in a Lean product delivery environment, you’ll be responsible for guiding your team to solve problems, meet goals and KPIs rather than merely delivering to a specification. We want to leverage your experience in leadership, software design, problem-solving and test automation strategy to help us continuously improve our delivery and collaboration processes. We have a range of technologies and our fair share of legacy combined with brand new initiatives.
