Technical Lead
About the role
We are hiring a Technical Lead to own the technical direction of enterprise Java application development on a
major banking programme. This is a hands-on leadership role: you'll lead a team
of engineers, set standards, and steward a substantial existing Java estate
running on enterprise application servers — while helping modernise it towards
a cloud-ready, microservices architecture.
You'll be the technical anchor
across design, build, integration and release, and the bridge between
architecture, delivery teams and business stakeholders.
What you'll do
- Lead the design and delivery of enterprise Java applications end-to-end.
- Provide hands-on technical leadership on IBM
WebSphere / WebSphere Liberty (or comparable Java application server)
estates — deployment, configuration, tuning, upgrades and troubleshooting.
- Set coding standards, run design and code reviews,
and mentor a team of engineers.
- Drive modernisation: decomposing
monolithic/app-server workloads towards Spring Boot microservices,
containers and CI/CD.
- Own non-functional quality — performance, resilience,
security, scalability and observability.
- Plan and coordinate technical delivery across SIT,
UAT and production releases; manage technical risk and dependencies.
- Partner with enterprise architects, BAs,
infrastructure and vendor teams.
Requirements
Essential
skills
- 12+ years in enterprise Java application
development, with a strong track record leading teams and delivery.
- Deep, hands-on expertise with IBM WebSphere and/or
WebSphere Liberty (or a comparable Java application server platform —
JBoss/WildFly, WebLogic).
- Strong core Java and Spring / Spring Boot;
enterprise integration patterns (JMS/MQ, REST, SOAP).
- Solid grounding in application architecture,
performance tuning and production support at scale.
- CI/CD, containers (Docker,
Kubernetes/OpenShift) and modern engineering practice.
- Proven ability to lead modernisation of legacy Java
workloads.
