Do you enjoy shaping technical direction across teams and helping organisations evolve their engineering practices?

Are you motivated by solving complex system challenges while mentoring others and driving meaningful impact at scale?

About the team:

The Submissions Technology group builds and operates platforms that support the scholarly publishing lifecycle—from submission and peer review through to editorial decisions and publication. We focus on reliability, scalability, and continuous improvement as we modernise core systems and introduce new capabilities.

About the Role
This role provides senior technical leadership across multiple teams, helping to shape architecture, engineering practices, and modernisation efforts. You will work through influence, contributing hands-on where it matters most, while supporting teams to build secure, scalable, and resilient systems. The role focuses on long-term technical health, collaboration, and practical innovation, including the responsible use of AI in software development.

Responsibilities

Lead through influence to align technical direction across teams and domains
Partner with architects, engineering leaders, and product teams to shape strategy and execution
Define and evolve domain architecture, service boundaries, and integration patterns
Contribute directly to complex or high-risk engineering work where it adds the most value
Drive modernisation efforts, reducing technical debt and evolving toward cloud-native patterns
Improve operational excellence through observability, automation, resilience, and incident learning
Establish pragmatic technical standards and promote consistency across teams
Mentor engineers in architecture, systems thinking, and engineering best practices

Requirements

Experience operating as a senior or principal engineer across multiple teams or domains
Proven ability to influence architectural direction and drive cross-team technical change
Strong background in distributed systems, APIs, and integration patterns
Experience with event-driven architectures and modern cloud-based systems
Backend engineering expertise with Java, Spring Boot, and microservices
Familiarity with modern frontend technologies and polyglot environments
Experience with containerisation, CI/CD pipelines, and Infrastructure as Code
Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools and applying GenAI concepts in production

Work in a Way That Works for You
We promote a healthy work/life balance across the organisation. We offer an appealing working prospect for our people. With numerous wellbeing initiatives, shared parental leave, study assistance, and sabbaticals, we will help you meet your immediate responsibilities and your long-term goals.
