If your passionate about managing, helping other software developers and delivering good software, this role will be for you.

We are hiring for a Hands-Off Software Development team lead.

You will come from a software dev background, but you wont be coding in this role. Instead this role is all about owning the teams delivery pace, running the day to day and managing a team of developers.

AI will naturally have a part to play in this role, and you will ideally be someone who is interested in where the direction of AI is going, and investigate how to implement this into the team too. You don't need to be an AI wizard (though that would help). Rather we are just not looking for a sceptic.

What's on offer:

• Leadership role with genuine autonomy with a modern cloud-based SaaS product
• Opportunity to shape engineering processes and AI-assisted development
• Private healthcare including dental, optical and mental
• Hybrid working from Ulverston

You'll be:

• Managing and mentoring a team of Software Engineers
• Running stand-ups, sprint planning and retrospectives
• Owning delivery and removing blockers
• Working closely with Product and senior leadership
• Coordinating software releases
• Helping improve engineering practices and delivery

What you'll need:

• Experience managing software engineers
• Strong technical understanding (you need to be able to get the respect of Developers)
• Experience delivering software in an Agile environment
• Comfortable coaching, challenging and supporting developers
• An interest in using AI to improve engineering productivity
• Close enough to the office to be able to work hybrid in Ulverston, Cumbria
