By working together in international teams and with different perspectives, we gain the experience that is our collective strength.

In Jacobs, every day is a chance to make the world a better place - let's design your career with us!

You’ll be leading a team or effort. We’ll be looking at you to set direction and take responsibility for successfully achieving an outcome or deliverable. You may have a team of people to support, leading a development pod, or else you could be working across multiple pods, providing some centralized expertise necessary for a larger program of work.

You will have opportunity to:

• Design solutions end to end. Teams and clients will look to you for advice and contribution in higher-level architectural discussions across the stack.

• Own the development process for your team, building strong principles and putting robust methods and patterns in place across architecture, scope, code quality, infrastructure and deployments.

• Model team behaviour for writing specifications and acceptance criteria, estimating stories, sprint planning and documentation.

• Actively define and evolve company’s engineering standards and practices ensuring we maintain a shared, modern and robust approach.

• It’s important you feel comfortable influencing team discussions with the client on the project.

• Coach and mentor others in the team, regardless of seniority, working with them to build their expertise and understanding.

• Your involvement in shaping bids (working with a bid team) will assist to create approaches or proposals, and perhaps you may also add valuable contributions during presentations to clients in a formal selection process.

• Strong experience of web application development using React, Next.js and JavaScript or TypeScript

• User interface engineering using CSS, design systems and accessibility compliance

• Backend development with Node.js, databases and ORMs (e.g. Prisma)

• Experience developing cloud-native, serverless and event-driven solutions in AWS, Azure or GCP (e.g. functions, message queues, databases, API gateways, authentication), ideally with developer or architect certification

• Good understanding of testing practices, principles (TDD, BDD) and associated frameworks (e.g. Cypress and Cucumber)

• Agile software development including iteration and sprints, acceptance criteria, peer review and estimation techniques

• Awareness of branching and deployment patterns, infrastructure as code (e.g. Terraform) and observability tooling

• Unique company culture fostering individual career growth and work-life balance

• Full-time employment contract with salary corresponding to qualifications

• Hybrid working model

• Flexible working hours (we start between 7:30-9:30)
