About the Job

The Senior Software Engineer is responsible for the development and support of critical business systems used by globally distributed internal and external stakeholders including colleagues, schools, candidates, examiners, instates, third party systems etc. 

The Senior Software Engineer works on multiple continuously adaptive technologies to ensure IB systems allow the flexibility for organizational change and growth. This will include development of IB products in the form of projects, CRs and support and maintenance of production software using Azure or Oracle technology.

The IB’s business services involve multiple processes taking place in an event driven, microservices architecture. Functionality delivered purely via services is significant, so this is a full stack role with an emphasis towards backend development, although frontend development is also required.
