Job Role: Principal Engineer Working Model: Full-Time - Remote (with occasional quarterly workshops/events) Salary: Up to £100,000

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a major organisation as they evolve their Proposition & Acquisition Value Stream, driving innovation across marketing websites, sales quote and buy systems, and key marketing technologies. You'll play a senior strategic and architecture-focused role, supporting multiple squads and working alongside senior stakeholders to deliver complex, high-impact initiatives.


Ideal Candidate:
* Proven experience as a Principal or Senior Engineer with a strong technical and architecture background

* Less hands-on coding, more strategic leadership and technical oversight

* Extensive experience with SaaS platforms including Adobe CXP, Adobe CDP, Informatica MDM, and CIAM

* Skilled in cloud technologies (Azure, GCP, or AWS), microservices, and API strategy

* Strong understanding of modern development frameworks (Angular, React, Java/J2EE, Spring Boot, Gosu) and architecture patterns

* Proven experience in technical strategy, solution design, and architectural governance

* Expertise in relationship management, building trust and influencing across squads, leadership teams, and external partners

* Track record of mentoring, enabling, and guiding engineering teams rather than day-to-day coding

* Knowledge of secure development practices, data governance, and compliance frameworks


What's on offer?
* £100,000 salary

* Flexible working arrangements

* 33 days holiday (plus bank holidays)

* Private health cover option

* 6% matched pension contributions

* Funded qualifications and extensive L&D opportunities

* Life event loan up to £3,000

* Discounts on insurance & breakdown cover


About the Role:
* Join at a pivotal time as the Value Stream implements critical customer acquisition platforms

* Support multiple squads as their senior, strategy-focused technical leader

* Provide architectural oversight, shaping the technical roadmap and ensuring alignment with broader enterprise strategy

* Manage relationships across engineering, product, and architecture teams, influencing without direct authority

* Drive engineering quality, scalability, and SaaS platform excellence across squads

* Act as a mentor, challenger, and enabler - showing teams and stakeholders what good looks like

* Take ownership of SaaS platform management, technical risk, and architectural decision-making
