Senior Software Engineer

The client is building the infrastructure behind a new generation of high-volume, highly personalised live experiences. Their technology sits quietly behind the scenes, orchestrating huge volumes of media, data, and real-time workflows where timing, reliability, and scale really matter. Think hundreds of thousands of personalised assets, millions of interactions, and operational pipelines that need to perform flawlessly when the pressure is on. What makes the engineering interesting is the range of problems involved. The team works across cloud infrastructure, media processing, automation, analytics, distributed workflows, and AI-assisted engineering. There’s plenty of room to make a real impact: improving performance, removing manual processes, increasing resilience, handling scale, and using AI to rethink how things are built and operated. It’s a relatively lean team working on systems with a surprisingly large footprint. Small team. Big systems. Real-world impact.
