Staff Engineer – London (Hybrid, Full-Time)

Are you ready to leverage your technical expertise to deliver high-quality engineering solutions in a dynamic, enterprise environment? We are looking for a Staff Engineer to join a forward-thinking technology and digital transformation consultancy in London.

This is a hands-on role for an experienced engineer who thrives in multi-disciplinary teams, driving innovation, championing modern engineering practices, and contributing to cutting-edge cloud-native systems.

The Role

As a Staff Engineer, you will:

• Design, build, and maintain high-quality, reliable software with strong automation and cloud-native practices.

• Take ownership of complex engineering tasks and deliver consistently.

• Support and mentor other engineers, fostering clean, maintainable code.

• Drive DevOps and CI/CD practices to enhance delivery efficiency.

• Contribute to product planning, OKRs, and roadmap discussions.

• Embed security best practices into design, development, and operations.

• Champion modern engineering approaches, including microservices, cloud-native architectures, and continuous delivery.

Key Responsibilities

• Deliver backend services with Java 17+, Spring Boot or Micronaut, including automated testing and performance optimization.

• Apply software design patterns and architecture principles (SOLID, Clean/Hexagonal Architecture, CQRS, Circuit Breakers, idempotency).

• Model business domains using Domain Driven Design: bounded contexts, aggregates, entities, domain events, anti-corruption layers.

• Implement event-driven architectures (Kafka, schema evolution, idempotent consumers, DLQs, transactional outbox).

• Work with databases & caching: RDBMS (MS SQL/Oracle), NoSQL (MongoDB), Redis caching strategies.

• Deploy solutions in cloud environments (Azure, AKS/Web Apps/Logic Apps), with IaC (Terraform), CI/CD (GitHub Actions), containers, and Kubernetes.

• Ensure observability via metrics, logging, tracing (Dynatrace/OTel), alerting, and SLOs.

• Use feature flags, A/B testing, and telemetry to inform product decisions.

• Maintain secure coding standards: authentication/authorization, secrets management, data protection, threat modelling.

• Collaborate effectively across backend, frontend, and platform teams, documenting technical decisions (ADRs/diagrams).

Desirable skills:

• Python for tooling, data pipelines, or prototypes.

• Frontend literacy (TypeScript/React) to validate integrations.

• Test automation (Playwright/Selenium) and test data management.

• Experience with ERP/COTS integrations (SAP, warehouse automation, MQ, Mule).

• Contributions to open-source or inner-source projects to elevate engineering standards.

Your Profile

• Experienced in enterprise-grade software engineering with strong backend focus.

• Skilled in cloud-native architectures, DevOps, and microservices.

• Strong problem-solving, mentoring, and collaboration skills.

• Pragmatic approach balancing delivery, quality, and innovation.

Why Join

• Work on cutting-edge enterprise projects that make an impact.

• Access continuous learning and professional development.

• Be part of a culture promoting diversity, inclusion, and wellbeing.

• Competitive salary with pension, healthcare, laptop, phone, and training resources.
