Salary: £60,000 - 100,000 per year Requirements: We require experience resolving complex, cross-domain technical challenges across mobile, backend APIs, orchestration layers, and field operational workflows. We need someone who can balance near-term delivery pressure with long-term architectural sustainability. We require the ability to solve ambiguous problems with incomplete data and design scalable patterns across multiple business domains. We need ownership of field platform architecture, coding standards, integration patterns, security baseline, technology choices, performance strategies, and critical code reviews. We require experience using telemetry, profiling tools, error tracking, synthetic monitoring, and AI-assisted diagnostics to inform decisions. We need experience designing, integrating, and operating AI-enabled solutions in enterprise environments, including prompt-driven workflows, retrieval-augmented systems, and AI agents. We require the ability to apply structured evaluation, testing, and monitoring practices so AI outputs are reliable, secure, and compliant. We need responsibility for the full lifecycle of AI features from experimentation through deployment and continuous improvement. We require understanding of field workforce operations, including installation, service, and repair. We need awareness of compliance, safety, and regulatory requirements related to field processes. We require experience working in product-led organisations and cross-functional teams. Responsibilities: We define and evolve the Field Platform architecture, including long-term patterns and guardrails for scalability, resilience, interoperability, and a unified experience. We drive consolidation and simplification of the platform estate, reducing duplication, technical debt, maintenance costs, and operational complexity. We shape cross-domain technical design decisions across Product, Architecture, Supply Chain, Scheduling, and Field Operations. We identify and deliver new digital capabilities such as supply chain, quoting, workflow optimisation, and knowledge management. We establish engineering excellence across teams, including clean architecture, CI/CD automation, observability, testing strategies, release processes, telemetry, performance tuning, and secure-by-design principles. We lead platform performance, reliability, and offline capability, with focus on failover behaviours, caching, performance profiling, and user trust. We influence and steward Security, SRE, Quality, and platform-wide capabilities, including shift-left testing, strong security hygiene, consistent observability, and reliable operational processes. We continuously identify opportunities to automate, simplify, reduce cycle time, improve developer experience, adopt new tools and AI, and scale engineering practices across squads. We lead through influence and expertise across squads, shaping backlog, standards, and adoption. We coach analysts and engineers and role model product-led, iterative delivery with a high bar for quality and controls. We participate in governance and design forums. We build functional playbooks, patterns, and guardrails, and run knowledge shares and communities of practice. Technologies: AI Backend CI/CD Mobile Security Datadog Support UX UI Design More: We are Centrica, a family of brands with around 21,000 colleagues working to create a greener, fairer future and an energy system that does not rely on fossil fuels. Technology is a core driver of our strategy, and our team is modernising platforms, strengthening cyber and operational resilience, and advancing product-led ways of working. We are scaling automation and AI into real end-to-end change to improve customer journeys, reduce cost-to-serve, accelerate delivery, and build the digital foundations behind our energy trading, field operations, and critical infrastructure. This role is part of our Field Platform journey, helping us build reusable platforms that will shape how we operate over the next decade. We offer a supportive total rewards approach designed to give flexibility for you and your family, and we are committed to growth, sustainability, and making work meaningful. last updated 24 week of 2026
