Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer (Java & React / Javascript / Angular) Would you like to help create products to support the sharing of scientific knowledge? Do you enjoy collaborating to solve complex technical problems?                                 About the team: Our dynamic Agile Teams deliver the technology which facilitates researchers to publish quality scientific research. As a Software Engineer, you will build capabilities to improve the quality of scientific research. About the role: As a Senior II Software Engineer, you will build capabilities to support scientific researchers through the process of submitting the research for publication. We are continually evolving our technology in response to researchers’ needs and to the ever-changing technical landscape, including the use of AI technologies. Key responsibilities: As Software Engineer, you will be responsible for: · Designing, developing, and deploying applications in a cloud-hosted distributed system to build our next-generation product · Collaborating with business stakeholders to identify requirements and gather feedback in a fast-moving environment. · Providing input into architectural decisions to ensure stability and performance · Identifying and implementing enhancements to continually improve our delivery process · Partnering with cross-functional Agile and DevOps implementation teams Requirements: We know it, and we're excited about it. AI-assisted and agentic development is reshaping what engineers do day to day. We will allow good engineers to build and evolve their skills into the roles of the future. What you'll bring You will demonstrate proficiency in the majority of the requirements below, along with the attitudes and behaviours that make a great engineer on our team.

Agentic Engineering: Proven experience using agentic coding workflows and modern AI tools (e.g., Copilot, Claude, Codex, Cursor) to plan, build, refactor, and document complex systems.

AI-Assisted Troubleshooting: Experience using AI tools to analyse metrics and logs across observability platforms (e.g., New Relic, OpenSearch / Kibana, Coralogix). Cloud & Delivery: Familiarity with containerised, distributed cloud environments (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes, AWS), Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins), alongside solid version control (Git).

Mentorship & Leadership: Actively mentors and teaches junior engineers, and actively drives discussions to improve working practices and code quality. Collaboration: Real-world Agile experience (Scrum/Kanban) and clear communication across disciplines, including product and UX. How you work Ownership & Judgement: Takes responsibility, solves problems, makes decisions, and weighs risks, including when working with AI tools and agents. Curiosity & Product Mindset: Stays aware of what's happening in the industry, and takes a genuine interest in the domain and the business. Why join us?
