Fullstack Engineer

About the role

As a full-stack Engineer, you will be working as part of a high-performance team developing new solutions that put the customer at the heart of the product. We believe in shipping quality, tested, secure and consistent code. You will also work closely with other development teams and the Dev Sec Ops  squad to ensure the solution is performant and reliable.

The Tesco Mobile Development team is a truly cross functional team responsible for the functional software development of bespoke and product / SaaS based IT solutions.

You will be working within a very diverse team of highly motivated and talented individuals on business-critical full-stack development. Our teams are motivated and challenged, working in sprints across a range of technologies which together provide huge benefit to the wider business.

This role sits primarily within the ‘Acquisitions Platform’ squad, which is responsible for developing and maintaining full-stack applications that support Tesco Mobile’s customer acquisition journey as part of the wider ‘I Choose’ tribe. The squad owns several strategic services and is accountable for both their ongoing development and their Dev Ops responsibilities. Depending on business priorities you may also contribute to other squads.

We’re an Agile organisation. Agile helps us respond quickly to our customers, make the most of our diverse talents, and stay focused on what really matters. It’s more than just a ‘methodology’ to us – it’s our way for everyone to give their best.

We blend office and virtual working. The office is our base, and we work best when we’re together more than we’re apart. But we know that regular office time isn’t right for everyone, and we’re open to talking about complete location flexibility for some roles.

For a small organisation, we use a wide variety of technologies. Plus, our connections with Virgin Media O2  and Tesco means there’s lots of scope for a varied and stimulating opportunities.
