Job Description

We are looking for a senior Software Craftsperson to join our teams and help clients build well-crafted, maintainable, and valuable software.

This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who combines strong technical depth with autonomy, pragmatism, and a continuous improvement mindset. You will work across client teams, helping them solve complex software challenges, improve engineering practices, and adopt AI-enabled ways of working in a responsible and effective way.

You should be comfortable working primarily with Java and TypeScript, while also bringing the curiosity and adaptability to work across other languages, platforms, and domains when needed. We value fullstack polyglot engineers who can make sound technical decisions based on context rather than preference alone.

Codurance’s own role language emphasizes pragmatism, professionalism, transparency, broad technical knowledge, coaching and mentoring, and the ability to advise across multiple technology stacks.

What we are looking for

We are looking for someone who has:

• Extensive professional software engineering experience, ideally at senior, staff, principal, lead, or architect level.
• Strong hands-on experience with Java and TypeScript.
• Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS
• Experience with CI/CD
• Strong engineering fundamentals: design, testing, refactoring, architecture, delivery, maintainability, and production-readiness.
• The ability to work across different languages, stacks, and domains.
• Experience working in autonomous environments where you were expected to identify problems and drive solutions.
• Good understanding of modern AI tools and how they can be used in professional software engineering.
• Practical exposure to tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, Cursor, or similar AI coding/reasoning assistants.
• Experience integrating AI tools into engineering workflows, not just experimenting with them individually.
• Strong communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Excellent written and verbal English communication skills.

AI experience we expect

We will provide additional training, but we need people who already have meaningful exposure to AI-assisted engineering.

You should already be able to discuss and demonstrate how you use AI tools for some of the following:

• Accelerating software development without compromising quality.
• Generating and reviewing tests.
• Refactoring legacy or complex code.
• Exploring unfamiliar codebases.
• Producing technical documentation.
• Supporting architectural thinking and trade-off analysis.
• Debugging and root-cause analysis.
• Improving developer workflows.
• Using AI critically, with awareness of hallucinations, security, privacy, and maintainability risks.
  

We are not looking for someone who simply “uses AI prompts.” We are looking for someone who understands how AI can be integrated into professional engineering practices while preserving craftsmanship, judgement, and accountability.

Codurance’s public positioning now explicitly references helping businesses modernise and build scalable software using an AI-first approach, which makes this framing consistent with their current market direction.

Requirements

• Build high-quality software using modern engineering practices.
• Work primarily across Java, TypeScript, and adjacent ecosystems.
• Join different client or internal teams depending on business need, context, and skill fit.
• Use AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or similar tools to improve engineering productivity and software delivery.
• Help integrate AI into day-to-day engineering practices, including coding, testing, refactoring, documentation, discovery, and knowledge sharing.
• Support teams in using AI safely, pragmatically, and effectively rather than as a shortcut around engineering discipline.
• Contribute to technical decision-making and architectural direction.
• Work closely with clients, product teams, and stakeholders to understand business context and deliver meaningful outcomes.
• Identify ambiguity, clarify problems, and take initiative without waiting for detailed instructions.
• Share knowledge and raise engineering standards across teams.

Benefits

Everyone should have the right to bring their whole self to work and be celebrated for who they are. Our people are hired purely on their commitment to these values and their ambition to deliver outstanding results for our clients. Codurance is proud to be an Equal Opportunities Employer and is committed to fostering an inclusive workplace.
