Senior Software Engineer (Java)

Permanent | Cardiff/Hybrid | Up to 50,000

At Target Group, we’re passionate about using technology to improve financial services – but more importantly, we’re passionate about people, partnerships and progress.

We’re entering an exciting phase of modernisation and transformation, opening up our longstanding platforms through API‑driven services, cloud technologies and new digital channels. To help us shape the future, we’re looking for a Senior Java Software Engineer who combines technical excellence with a collaborative, people‑first mindset.

What can you expect?

As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll sit at the heart of our engineering capability. You’ll be responsible for translating business and system requirements into robust designs and high‑quality software solutions, while acting as a guardian of code quality and engineering standards.

This is a hands‑on engineering role, but with real influence. You’ll spend time:

Analysing complex problems
Designing scalable, secure solutions
Guiding our offshore development teams
Reviewing and approving code before release

You won’t have direct line management responsibility, but you’ll play a key role in mentoring, coaching and developing other engineers, shaping best practice across our global teams.

My Team – What’s it like here?

You’ll be joining a team that:

Values trust, collaboration and openness
Celebrates success through our My Recognition portal
Provides regular feedback and career support through meaningful 1‑to‑1s
Cares deeply about wellbeing, flexibility and continuous learning

We believe great engineering happens when people feel supported, challenged and empowered.

What you’ll be doing

People & Leadership

Coach and mentor less‑experienced engineers across onshore and offshore teams
Lead code reviews and design discussions
Support offshore teams by providing clear requirements and removing blockers

Engineering & Delivery

Design and develop large‑scale, high‑quality Java applications
Act as a gatekeeper for quality, ensuring standards are met before release
Investigate and resolve defects, incidents and performance issues
Define and execute testing strategies to deliver reliable, error‑free solutions

Process & Standards

Ensure solutions align with company standards, security principles and best practice
Contribute to software engineering policies, tools and ways of working
Support modernisation initiatives, APIs and third‑party integrations

Customer & Stakeholder Engagement

Take part in client and user meetings, clearly presenting options and solutions
Support users with acceptance testing and problem resolution
Deliver outcomes that solve real customer challenges

Requirements

What we’re looking for

Technical skills

Java 21, J2EE
Spring ecosystem: Spring Core, MVC, Boot, Batch, Apache Camel, Hibernate
REST API design and SOAP services
Front‑end technologies: AngularJS, React, JSP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript
JUnit 5, Mockito
Application servers (WebSphere and/or Tomcat)
Containerisation, serverless, AWS (and on‑prem environments)
Relational databases: DB2, MySQL, PostgreSQL or similar
Secure coding principles and cloud security concepts
Tooling: Git, Maven, Eclipse/IntelliJ, Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, Jenkins, SonarQube, Artifactory

Benefits

Core Benefits

Competitive salary of up to £50,000 per annum
30 days holiday plus bank holidays – from day one
Hybrid working policy
Defined Contribution Pension Scheme (employer matched up to 6%)
Company‑paid Private Medical Insurance (benefit in kind)
Group Life Assurance
Group Income Protection
Discretionary annual bonus scheme
Annual pay review

Flexible & Lifestyle Benefits

My Flex benefits platform – access to a wide range of voluntary benefits
Technology Buying Scheme (salary sacrifice)
Gym Flex – discounted gym and health club memberships
Dental Insurance
Critical Illness Cover
Health Cash Plan
Cycle to Work scheme

Employee Discount Scheme across hundreds of retailers

Wellbeing & Support

Wisdom Wellbeing – confidential health and wellbeing support, including EAP

Recognition Scheme celebrating successes across the business
Free mortgage advice and support
Charitable payroll giving
Access to a GP 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year through GP24
Everest Funeral Concierge
Free Bereavement and Probate Advice and Support
Enhanced parental leave

Why Join Target

You’ll be joining a team that genuinely:

Celebrates success through our My Recognition portal
Invests in your development with regular feedback and support
Cares about wellbeing as much as delivery
Encourages curiosity, innovation and best practice

We’re committed to creating a Diverse & Inclusive culture through the execution of our D&I strategy, community relationships, our people & leaders.

Grow your future with us.
