Description

Applications are invited for a Tech Lead in the Software Engineering group at the Bennett Institute.

We are seeking an experienced software developer to play a lead role in the development of the OpenSAFELY platform, and the fast-growing engineering team.

This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys technical leadership and running small teams, but also wishes to maintain an element of front-line, hands-on engineering.

In collaboration with the existing leadership team, you will provide line management, training, technical advice, mentorship and coaching to your colleagues.

You'll co-own the architectural direction of the platform, and provide guidance to build the best possible products.

We anticipate the role being approximately 80% leadership work, and 20% hands-on engineering.

You will be formally based in the Radcliffe Primary Care Building, Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences, Woodstock Road, Oxford, OX2 6GG as your normal place of work, but you will be able to agree a pattern of regular remote working with your line manager.

The position is funded until 31 October 2026 in the first instance.

"Committed to equality and valuing diversity"

Interviews are expected to be held during the weeks commencing 3 June and 10 June.
