Job Description
- My impact is across the directorate that I am a member of, but also reaches beyond to effect change across the wider organisation
- I solve problems and deliver solutions that impact the whole engineering organisation
- I would generally expect to be given a very high-level problem to work on, but everything after that is me: identifying and formalising the problem, converting it into a simple technical solution, leading its implementation, and training the rest of the organisation to use it
- As a senior technical authority, I deliver value that materially changes outcomes for the company, and my job is not just about my technical judgement but also my ability to influence others to deliver results
- I am an authority on multiple technologies and in multiple domains; senior engineers from other teams come to me for advice on the architecture of their products
- I am a proponent of an effective engineering community that encourages learning for all
- I guide large complex programmes of work, working with and influencing the engineering, product, programme, and business teams
- In doing so I influence build vs buy decisions, deprecate legacy software, and lead significant refactoring
- I make the right trade-offs to influence the roadmap and sequencing of work to deliver early and often
- I am hands on with design and coding to resolve hard problems that have a long-term impact
- I guide one or more areas and define the strategic design keeping security, scalability, extensibility, and reusability in mind
- I drive Tesco s Inner Source Platform, maintaining and contributing to projects whilst influencing direction and adoption
- I have strong communication and influencing skills to resolve disputes and to lead stakeholders to appropriate decisions with data points and foresight
- I have sufficient breadth and depth of technical knowledge to influence senior leaders on engineering strategy
- I build strategy documents, designs and code which are exemplary and serve as a model for others
- I write critical path code, having a good appreciation of the whole stack
- I innovate and stay ahead of industry trends, competition, and new paradigms and share appropriately
- I routinely come up with PoCs to evaluate approaches or technology choices to enable or accelerate programmes
- I guide SDEs across teams, under one or more HoSDs/Directors or under a distinct functional area such as Azure or Data engineering
- I set up knowledge transfer sessions on specific areas or practices, leading constructive code and design reviews, probing assumptions, highlighting risks and leaving behind better quality repositories
- I contribute to the development of SDEs, ensuring that they reach their full potential
- I help with organization goals by hiring both engineering ICs and Managers
- I calibrate assessors and strengthen the assessment process for Tesco, raising the bar for technical assessments to ensure they move as best practice and expectations evolve
Employment Type: Full Time, Permanent
