Senior Software Engineer Remote, United Kingdom View role

We are looking for a senior software developer to lead the design and implementation of our business-critical data platform. This is a role requiring high autonomy within a team of senior software and data developers who collaborate in the data platform problem and solution space. In this role, you will be called upon to translate complex and sometimes ambiguous requirements into resilient software engineering solutions. You will inform us of what needs to be built, not the other way around. You will contribute to the effective use of data, a core focus for the broader company. You will be part of a team that sits precisely in that space and delivers high-quality solutions that solve real business problems and customer issues across thousands of Unity titles.

What you'll be doing:

• Collaborating with stakeholders, defining the problem space, proposing technical solutions, and owning them through to production; you will not just receive JIRA tickets.
• Identifying reliability concerns and opportunities for improvement.
• Proposing and delivering architectural improvements.
• Influencing the roadmap towards technical excellence in software and data engineering.

What we're looking for:

• Strong software engineering fundamentals, and experience applying them within data engineering.
• Expertise working with data streaming technologies such as Kafka and Flink.
• Ability to work autonomously and effectively in a team setting.
• Experience working with non-technical stakeholders and translating their needs into technical requirements for team-wide delivery.

Additional information:

• Relocation support is not available for this position.
• Work visa/immigration sponsorship is not available for this position.
