Lead Software Engineer

You'll be joining Bauer Media Audio (BMA), Europe's biggest commercial audio broadcaster, connecting audiences across nine markets to the music, stories and experiences they love. Bauer Media Audio is making a significant investment in a new in-house software development hub in Manchester. This new hub reinforces Manchester's position as a key technology centre for Bauer Media Audio, alongside its existing locations.

We're creating a new development team to build innovative business-critical solutions that will power Bauer Media's audio platform of the future.

Our team is built around squads, each aligned to a distinct value stream, with a layer of cross-squad roles - people whose expertise and support spans the whole team. Each squad will be led by a Product Manager and Lead Engineer, working in partnership and jointly accountable for their squad's work and outcomes. Squads are intentionally small - typically around five to six engineers - keeping them focused, collaborative, and able to move quickly.

Our team thrives on collaboration, innovation, and a shared commitment to delivering high-quality, scalable solutions, working closely with product and technology peers to ensure our platforms meet the evolving needs of the business and our international markets.
