Glasgow (2-3 days p/w on site)
£80,000 p/a
Overview
An excellent opportunity to join a well-regarded Ed-Tech organisation with a strong presence in Glasgow. You will have the opportunity to shape and build solutions used by students across the globe. Build and evolve a cloud-based product used at meaningful scale. This is a senior, hands-on role for an engineer who enjoys shaping technical direction, raising engineering standards, and helping multiple squads deliver reliably without stepping away from the code.
Responsibilities
Design, build and maintain production services and customer-facing features, from early discovery through to release and operation.
Provide technical leadership across multiple squads: clarify goals, reduce ambiguity and help teams converge on pragmatic solutions.
Partner closely with Product and Design to turn outcomes into shippable increments, keeping communication crisp and expectations aligned.
Set a high bar for engineering quality: architecture, code health, testing discipline, observability and operational readiness.
Work with reliability/operations colleagues to improve uptime, performance, incident response and capacity planning.
Own and improve delivery ways of working: estimation approaches, planning, prioritisation, and predictable execution against epics.
Continuously modernise existing systems; simplify, automate, and remove friction to increase delivery speed.
Contribute to the technical roadmap for your domain, balancing near-term delivery with longer-term platform evolution.
Collaborate on cross-cutting initiatives such as security, data and applied AI where they improve product outcomes.
Required Experience
Significant commercial software engineering experience, operating at a senior/staff level.
Comfort leading through influence: you can align teams, coach engineers, and drive decisions without relying on hierarchy.
A strong sense of ownership and follow-through. You should be comfortable being accountable for outcomes, not just tasks.
A bias for action paired with good judgement: you can move quickly while managing risk in production systems.
Evidence of improving how teams work (quality, delivery, reliability, developer experience) and challenging the status quo constructively.
Clear communicator who can tailor detail for different audiences: engineers, product partners and leadership.
Deep capability in at least one mainstream programming language and ecosystem, with the range to be effective in others.
Practical experience designing and running cloud-native services, including infrastructure, deployment and operational tooling.
Confidence diagnosing complex issues in distributed systems (performance, reliability, tricky production defects).
Strong grasp of data storage and access patterns, with hands-on experience across relational and/or NoSQL databases.
Comfort working with modern engineering practices: automated testing, code review, CI/CD, observability and secure-by-design thinking.
Curiosity about emerging approaches (including applied and agentic AI) and the ability to adopt them responsibly where they add value.
Reasonable Adjustments:
Respect and equality are core values to us. We are proud of the diverse and inclusive community we have built, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and perspectives. Our success is driven by our people, united by the spirit of partnership to deliver the best resourcing solutions for our clients.

Ready to work somewhere that cares more about how you build software than how fast you can ship it?
At Opencast, we don’t measure developers by the number of tickets you complete. We care about engineering craft, clean design and thoughtful problem-solving.
Opencast consultants deliver in complex environments, pairing often and working with others who take pride in doing things properly: TDD, emerging design, refactoring and leaving code better than they found it. We build software we are proud of, and our clients trust us not just to code but to think, challenge and guide. If you value simple and robust solutions and want a role where your judgment matters as much as your keyboard, you will fit right in.
The role
Software developers at Opencast care about building products right and combine their own experience and approach with our company values. They are tech agnostic, have expertise in agile methodologies, extreme programming practices and use industry-leading programming languages to deliver agile transformation.
Our approach to software development is collaborative, focused on keeping things simple, and we use test driven development and pair programming as best practice.
Working with clients and key stakeholders is a crucial part of a consultancy role. Our developers are inclusive team players that listen, collaborate, can positively challenge and manage expectations when needed but most of all are always willing to teach and help others. Leaving a client with improved ways of working, working technology and a good experience from discovery through to live is the priority.
The role is varied, technical, never confined to any one provider or solution and there are always opportunities for learning and development.
Requirements
Due to the nature of this role, applicants must either currently hold active Security Check (SC) Clearance or be eligible to obtain it.
Eligibility typically requires UK citizenship and continuous residence in the UK for the past five years, with no single absence exceeding 28 consecutive days.
Experience in delivering digital services for the UK government is highly valuable for many of our projects. Therefore, familiarity with the GDS toolkit will be beneficial.
Technical Skills
A senior consultant in software development at Opencast is responsible for:
Salary
£59,001 - £72,000
What we offer
A competitive package including a 7% employer pension contribution, share options and a discretionary bonus. You’ll also benefit from flexible working hours (aligned to client commitments), 25 days’ holiday, and access to 3 annual “life happens” days to support unexpected situations. We also offer wellbeing support, ongoing professional development, volunteering opportunities and the chance to be part of a genuinely supportive team.
Where you’ll work
This role requires regular on-site attendance across our HQ, hub offices, client sites and home. Applicants must be able to commute to offices and client sites as part of their normal working arrangements, as travel is essential to fulfilling the responsibilities of the role.
We include you
We welcome candidates from all identities, attributes, ways of thinking and backgrounds to thrive in a career at Opencast. Our aim is for the diversity of our people to be reflected in the solutions we deliver, to help create a fairer society for all.
Interview
Interviews will be conducted via Microsoft Teams. We’re happy to make adjustments to support your needs.
