Liferay Tech Lead

About the role

We're looking for a hands-on Senior Technical Lead to build a B2B eCommerce platform for a leading pharmaceutical brand, and to lead the engineers building it alongside you. This is a coding role first. You'll spend most of your week in the codebase, setting the technical standard by writing the hardest parts yourself and reviewing everything else.

What you'll do

• Write production code. Liferay customisation, backend services and integrations, with the complex and high-risk work landing on your keyboard
• Lead a distributed engineering team day to day, owning technical delivery through the sprint
• Run code review and set the quality bar in the codebase, through standards, testing and pairing rather than documents
• Break the architecture down into buildable work, and challenge the design where implementation reality says it won't hold
• Own the build and release pipeline, environments and branching strategy

What you need

• REST APIs
• Java
• Elasticsearch
• Root cause analysis
• Data modelling
• CI/CD
• Any graduate
