We're trusted to help clients envision and build their businesses for the future – to run smarter today while adapting for tomorrow’s markets, customers, and communities. Our multidisciplinary teams specialise in tech strategy and business innovation, digital solutions and applications, and device and systems engineering.

We excel in complex, regulated spaces including health and finance, connecting strategy, tech implementation, and operational services to help clients become more effective, resilient businesses. If you share our values and want to do the best work, for the right reasons, we can offer you the chance to do it on a global scale and play a real role in shaping our exciting journey.
** The role
** As a Senior Fullstack Developer, you will be a hands-on member of a high-performing engineering squad, building and operating business-critical digital services.

This is a backend-led fullstack role. You will use Kotlin or modern Java, ideally Java 17 or later, together with the wider JVM ecosystem, to develop reliable services, APIs and event-driven workflows. You will also contribute to modern web interfaces using technologies such as React and Type Script.

You will work in an increasingly AI-augmented engineering environment. We are looking for people who are curious about AI-augmented engineering and willing to experiment with tools that improve software delivery. You will not be expected to use AI tools every day, but you should be open to applying them where they provide clear value, while validating outputs for correctness, security and maintainability.

Working closely with product managers, designers and fellow engineers, you will turn product requirements into well-structured, maintainable and production-ready solutions. You will contribute throughout the delivery lifecycle—from technical discovery and implementation through to deployment, production support and continuous improvement.

You will take ownership of significant features and services, contribute to technical decisions, support other engineers and help maintain high standards of engineering quality.
** How you will make an impact
*** Build and maintain reliable JVM-based services using Kotlin or modern Java.
* Design and develop well-structured APIs and integrations.
* Build reusable services, APIs and components that enable other teams to deliver consistently and reduce duplication.
* Contribute to API design standards, documentation and versioning across services.
* Deliver complete end-to-end features by connecting backend services and data models with responsive web interfaces.
* Use appropriate test-first and test-informed practices to create effective automated tests.
* Experiment with AI-assisted engineering tools where they provide clear value, such as exploring solutions, improving tests, documenting systems or investigating issues.
* Validate AI-assisted outputs for correctness, security, maintainability and suitability before they are used.
* Contribute to event-driven workflows and asynchronous processing using suitable messaging or streaming technologies.
* Participate in technical discovery, spikes, architecture discussions and peer code reviews.
* Improve build, test and deployment pipelines to support safe and efficient delivery.
* Embed structured logging, metrics and distributed tracing to make services easier to operate and troubleshoot.
* Consider the operational, security and governance implications of engineering decisions, particularly in complex or regulated environments.
* Identify and address technical debt, performance issues and reliability risks.
* Share knowledge, support collective code ownership and contribute to a collaborative, low-ego team culture.
** What we are looking for
**** Essential experience
*** Strong commercial experience developing server-side…
