- Foster a culture of continuous improvement, technical excellence, and agile delivery
What We're Looking For:
- Proven experience as a senior engineer, architect, or technical lead, with hands-on delivery experience
- Experience managing multiple squads or engineering teams in Life & Pensions or financial services

- Excellent communication skills for both technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Familiarity with .NET/C#, Azure, DevOps/CI/CD, xbpsjku microservices, and modern scalable architecture principles is desirable
The opportunity:
- Shape a new leadership role in a regulated, innovative, and growing team
- Influence technical standards and delivery practices across multiple squads

- Join a supportive, inclusive culture committed to development and continuous improvement
