Lead Java Engineer – Shape the Future, Inspire a Team, Make an Impact
Salary: Up to £80,000 | Fully Remote Location: United Kingdom
Are you ready to elevate your career to the pinnacle of engineering leadership? Imagine leading a team of eight exceptional engineers, mentoring, monitoring, and inspiring them to create world-class solutions while working on a truly cutting-edge platform. This is your chance to leave a lasting mark on a company that’s revolutionising its field.
About Our Client Our client is a bold and innovative digital business that has redefined its industry. They’re pioneers, leveraging data and cutting-edge technology to deliver smarter, faster, and more powerful solutions for their customers. This isn’t just about maintaining the status quo; it’s about driving change in an industry shifting rapidly towards online solutions. As a lead engineer, you’ll be instrumental in shaping the technical future of a business that is already ahead of its time.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Leadership:
You’ll be at the helm of a talented team, guiding their growth, inspiring innovation, and steering projects that redefine excellence. Cutting-Edge Tech:
Java is at the core, but you’ll also work with Kotlin, Angular, GCP, AWS, Kubernetes, Kafka, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, Redis, and more. Empowered Culture:
Our client values your voice—ideas flow upward, and you’ll have the autonomy to drive meaningful change. Growth Potential:
With the industry shifting to online-first solutions, this company’s growth trajectory is unstoppable. Your role will evolve alongside it. What You’ll Be Doing
Leading and mentoring a team of eight talented engineers, fostering an environment of collaboration, growth, and technical brilliance. Defining and delivering innovative solutions, ensuring the platform exceeds customer expectations. Championing world-class engineering practices, from CI/CD pipelines to cloud-native deployments using GCP and Kubernetes. Building scalable, resilient backend services in Java and Kotlin while driving technical improvements and modernisation. Shaping and influencing technical strategies that propel the business to the next level. Who We’re Looking For You’re not just a Senior Java Developer — you’re a leader, an innovator, and a mentor. You thrive in fast-paced environments, love solving complex problems, and know how to inspire teams to deliver their best. Ideally, you’ll bring:
Proven experience building and deploying server-side web applications in Java or Kotlin. A passion for working in agile, collaborative environments. The ability to balance hands-on technical work with high-level leadership responsibilities. A mindset focused on continuous improvement—both personally and for the team. Familiarity with frontend technologies like Angular or React is a bonus, but not essential. What’s in It for You?
Freedom to Innovate:
Work with best-in-class technologies and have 10% of your time dedicated to professional development. Unparalleled Growth:
Be part of a business that’s not just keeping up with the times but shaping the future of its industry. Fully Remote:
Work from anywhere in the UK while contributing to a collaborative, supportive, and high-performing team. Inclusivity at Its Core:
Join a business committed to diversity and creating an environment where everyone can thrive. This is more than a job; it’s your chance to lead, innovate, and make a lasting impact at a company on the rise. If you’re ready to take the next step in your career and lead with purpose, this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
