  • Advocate and advance modern, agile software development practices and help develop and evangelise great engineering and organisational practices
  • Grow a healthy, collaborative engineering culture in line with the company values
  • Actively engage with the broader leadership team
  • Work from home with international travel up to 6 weeks per year for internal and external events
