Why this role matters:
Technology \& Change is a strategic priority for Vanquis. This role contributes directly to the delivery and stability of customer\-facing features, business applications, APIs and integrations.
Your work will help improve solution quality, security, maintainability and operational reliability. By using common components, documenting solutions and maintaining accurate delivery information, you’ll also support more efficient and controlled technology delivery.
Working within a regulated environment, you’ll help ensure that technology change is delivered in line with security, quality, governance and traceability expectations.
You’ll work closely with the Software Engineering Manager, senior engineers and architects for technical guidance, design review and delivery alignment. You’ll also collaborate with product, business analysis, testing, security, operations, change and release teams, alongside third\-party suppliers and platform partners where required.
Our engineering approach:
We believe in What that means
Simple, supportable solutions We balance configuration, low\-code and custom\-code options to find a proportionate solution
Secure by design Security, data protection and access controls are considered throughout delivery
Shared ownership Teams collaborate from requirements and design through to release and operational support
Quality built in Source control, testing, peer review and documentation form part of how we engineer
Continuous learning Peer review and engineering communities help us share knowledge and develop capability
Technology stack:
Salesforce MuleSoft and engineering practises
Apex Mule 4 applications
Lightning Web Components API\-led integration
