We’re looking for an
Engineering Lead
who’s part conductor, part translator, and full delivery force. This isn’t a
pure “write code all day” gig — it’s the senior role that sits right in the
middle of business ambition, product vision, architecture intent and the
engineering team that has to turn it into working reality.

If you love being the practical bridge
between “what we want to build” and “what actually gets built” — and you get a
kick out of driving clarity, alignment and execution through the entire build
phase — this is your stage.

Come lead the build. Make the complex feel
controlled. Make the delivery feel inevitable.

Role Summary

Senior delivery role requiring strong
technical fluency, stakeholder integration capability and disciplined execution
through the build phase. Although titled as an Engineering Lead, the role
carries broader responsibility for coordinating delivery readiness across
business, product, architecture and build stakeholders. Leads the build phase
of technology initiatives by aligning business, product, architecture and
engineering stakeholders, ensuring technical specifications are delivery-ready,
and driving the build team to execute against agreed scope, quality and
timelines.

Responsibilities

• 
  Drive
  end-to-end technical delivery through the build phase, ensuring work is
  sequenced, controlled and aligned to agreed priorities, scope and delivery
  milestones.
• 
  Coordinate
  Business Product Owners, Technical Product Owners, the Chief Architect and
  engineering teams to maintain delivery clarity, decision-making and
  momentum.
• 
  Oversee
  the development, review and readiness of technical specification documents
  and supporting build artefacts before engineering execution starts.
• 
  Manage
  delivery risks, issues, assumptions, dependencies and decisions across
  multiple workstreams and stakeholder groups.
• 
  Provide
  governance, status reporting and escalation management to support quality
  delivery, issue resolution and timely decision-making.
• 
  Act as
  the practical integration point between technical design intent and build
  execution, ensuring the build team has sufficient clarity to deliver.
• 
  Translate
  business and product intent into a coordinated technical execution plan
  for the build team.
• 
  Ensure
  technical requirements, specifications, dependencies, interfaces and
  acceptance criteria are sufficiently defined before build starts.
• 
  Direct
  and coordinate build activities across development and supporting teams to
  deliver against scope, timeline and quality expectations.
• 
  Facilitate
  alignment between architecture decisions, technical design, backlog
  priorities and engineering execution.
• 
  Track
  progress against milestones and intervene where blockers, design gaps,
  resourcing issues or delivery risks arise.
• 
  Support
  readiness for testing, release and implementation by ensuring build
  outputs are complete, controlled and traceable.

Requirements

• 
  Bachelor's
  degree in Computer Science, Information Systems or related field
  preferred
• 
  10+
  years of experience working in software development teams
• 
  Agile
  delivery certification (e.g. Scrum, or equivalent) – practical application
  preferred over theory
• 
  Proven
  track record leading large, multi‑disciplinary engineering teams across
  complex enterprise programmes
• 
  Strong
  background in modern application architectures, including:
• 
  Cloud‑native
  and distributed systems
• 
  API‑first
  and microservices architectures
• 
  Event‑driven
  and integration‑heavy platforms
• 
  Mobile
  Architecture
• 
  Demonstrated
  leadership across the full software development lifecycle, from design and
  build through to release, HyperCare, and stabilisation
• 
  Experience
  collaborating closely with:
• 
  Strong
  exposure to DevSecOps, CI/CD pipelines, and production release governance
