My industry-leading Technology client have created a newly formed role of Head of Software Engineering to lead, motivate and inspire a team whilst driving their incredibly ambitious tech roadmap.

Their flagship SaaS product is doing well within its industry across the UK and Europe with over 500 customers utilising it. But what I love about it, is that they haven\u2019t even scratched the surface of where they intend to take it. It is continuously evolving as a platform, as they anticipate the delivery of an exciting multi-year road-map as they continue to on-board new customers.

Their CTO feels it is the exactly the right time to bring in a top-notch Head of Software to lead, motivate and inspire their talented Software Engineering team and this is where you come in!

* Maintain and evolve a highly scalable flagship product built on NodeJS with a React front-end (Azure platform; experience with other cloud technologies considered).
* Collaborate closely with stakeholders and provide hands-on leadership when necessary.


Qualifications

* Hands-on JavaScript background using Node or React; previous leadership of engineering teams.
* Exposure to Azure; AWS experience considered.
* Experience with Agile methodologies and sprint planning; competency with Jira and QA/test automation.
* Wamiliarity with cloud platforms and evolving tech opportunities (e.g., AI initiatives).
