Lead Java Engineer (Hands-On)

80% Coding | Technical Leadership | Modern Platform

Remote First (office visit once a month) - You must live within 1 hr 30 of South Manchester

£70,000 - £85,000 + Bonus + Excellent Benefits

*My client is not able to provide Visa sponsorship

We’re working with a long-established tech company who are building modern platforms within a complex and meaningful domain. They’ve Embedded Agile and XP practices across engineering, and they’re now hiring a hands-on Principal Java Engineer to help lead delivery, raise standards, and support the growth of their teams.

This is not an “architect who doesn’t code” role. The expectation is that you’ll be around 80% hands-on, building software alongside the team.

The Opportunity

You’ll work as part of a Scrum team delivering real product outcomes, while also contributing to the broader engineering direction.

The hands-off element of the role includes:

*helping lead Scrum ceremonies and delivery

*mentoring and coaching engineers

*collaborating with other Principals and the Development Manager

*contributing to architectural decisions and technical direction

It’s a role for someone who still loves coding, but also enjoys influencing how teams work and how systems evolve.

Tech Stack & Practices

*Java, Spring Boot

*TDD, pairing, strong automated testing culture

*CI/CD, continuous delivery mindset

*AWS (with a mix of approaches including serverless)

*Docker, Kubernetes

*Terraform/DevOps tooling

AWS and DevOps exposure is very beneficial at Principal level - but they’re not looking for a pure DevOps engineer. The core of the role is still Java engineering.

What They’re Looking For

*Deep, hands-on Java experience with strong engineering judgement

*Proven ability to influence standards and mentor engineers

*Comfortable balancing delivery with technical leadership

*Strong understanding of building maintainable, scalable systems

*Experience working in Agile teams with modern practices

*Bonus points for AWS, containerisation, IaC, etc.

What’s In It For You?

*Remote-first working with minimal office travel

*Clear scope: still hands-on, but with meaningful technical influence

*Strong salary, bonus and excellent benefits

*A collaborative, mature engineering culture

*Complex systems, long-term platform work, and real impact

Interested?

Apply now or get in touch for a confidential conversation. Even if you’re not actively looking, it’s a great time to explore what they’re building.

Cathcart Technology is acting as an Employment Agency in relation to this vacancy.

What you’ll be doing:

As a Senior Full Stack Developer (with front-end focus), you’ll be responsible for:

• Building solutions to problems (especially solutions with a heavy front-end focus)
• Design of the solution (in conjunction with Product Managers and/or other colleagues)
• Helping colleagues facing issues with front-end development

Day-to-day life on the Product Development team looks like:

• Most of your time will be spent designing and building solutions.
• For our tech stack we use:
  • Django/Django REST Framework/Postgres for backend,
  • Angular for our web application,
  • Flutter for our mobile application (replacing our current Ionic/Angular app later this year),
  • and for infrastructure we use AWS ECS/ECR, Aurora and Lambda.
• For design, it’s quick brainstorming, a bit of analysis, sketching on paper or Figma, and/or jotting down a short design doc in Google Docs
• A chunk of time is spent on understanding issues, users and our platform. This includes talking to ops colleagues. We take turns answering ops support requests

It’s fast paced. We’re light on overhead and don’t outsource quality to a QA team. Quality, maintainability and security start at the design stage and are everyone’s responsibility.

We run 2-week sprints. Each day starts with a daily 15-minute standup and then it varies a lot from there. The issues vary from sprint-to-sprint. It’s typically very user focused, but we do make time each quarter to do unsexy important stuff (refactor, pay down technical debt, database upgrades, etc).

It’s not a solo effort. While we maximise the time you must put your head down and get on with cracking a problem, we grab each other for help every day. And we do peer review of design and code, while building and deploying to production regularly.

If you like having a holistic view of the product (from idea to release to growth), rather than being highly specialised in one niche, you’ll probably enjoy this role.

What we’re looking for:

• General characteristics
  • You like solving real problems. When you make something, you make it to solve someone’s issue. You understand the issue and the person facing it. You put in a bit of extra effort to make it a good experience for the user
  • Uncertainty is a fun problem to figure out, rather than an annoying headache. When you don’t know the answer, you try something. You experiment. You dig.
  • You’re a clear concise communicator. When writing or speaking, you know which details to prioritise
  • KISS is important to you. You have an instinct for when a solution is too complicated for the problem
  • You know how to learn and skill up. When faced with a novel skill area, you can self- critique your level and push yourself to improve
  • You reside in the UK and don’t need visa sponsorship
  • If you don’t live near Oxford, you are able to travel and work in our office in Oxford for a few days each quarter
• Specific characteristics for this role
  • Taken multiple features from idea to release to growth
  • Having spent meaningful time as part of different teams (we’d prefer at least 6 years as a developer)
  • Deep front-end experience, including responsive design, for consumer facing businesses
  • Design sense for UX/UI. Not just writing code. May have done wireframes before.
  • Can look at an interface and tell if it is terrible or not
  • Some experience working on backend (e.g. building APIs, database design, etc)
  • Some experience with CI/CD or deployments in general
  • Ideally, some experience in an agency (for consumer facing apps) and/or early-stage consumer facing startup
  • Bonus points if you have experience of mobile development, whether native or through a cross-platform framework like Flutter/React Native/Ionic
