I'm currently working with a well-established organisation that is investing heavily in its technology and looking to appoint an experienced Lead Software Developer to join a collaborative, forward-thinking development team.
This is a hands-on technical leadership role, ideal for someone who enjoys writing high-quality code while also mentoring developers, influencing engineering standards and driving best practice across the software development lifecycle.

* Help define and promote development standards, best practices and engineering processes.
* Work closely with Product Owners and stakeholders to deliver high-quality solutions.
* Support release management, CI/CD pipelines and application deployments.
* Drive continuous improvement across development, support and delivery processes.
What We're Looking For
* Commercial experience developing applications with Python.
* Strong knowledge of PostgreSQL/SQL and relational databases.
* Experience with JavaScript, with React exposure desirable.
* Experience developing RESTful APIs and system integrations.
* Familiarity with Git and modern CI/CD tools such as Azure DevOps or Jenkins.
* Understanding of software architecture, secure development principles and modern engineering practices.
* Experience working within Agile development environments.
* Previous experience mentoring developers or providing technical leadership.
* Excellent communication skills with the ability to work closely with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
This is an excellent opportunity to join an organisation where you'll remain hands-on technically while playing a key role in shaping development practices, mentoring colleagues and influencing the future direction of a growing software function.
If you're looking for your next technical leadership challenge, I'd love to hear from you
