Here’s what you’ll be doing:

This is an exciting role where you get access to a fantastic training and conferences budget, and a team who will support you to succeed.

We’re an international team, driving our class-leading data platform forwards as well as developing greenfield data products. We spend our time bug fixing, and pushing ourselves outside of our comfort zone. 
Reporting into James (our Data Engineering Manager), who’s hands on and interested in pretty much everything technology, you’ll be joining a team that is highly collaborative and not afraid to share exciting ideas that we then bring to life.

As one of our Senior Software Engineers, you’ll:

  • work as part of a centre of excellence for data specialists. You’ll help to look after our data, business intelligence and machine learning platforms
  • be able to develop your own scripts and triage any potential bugs 
  • contribute ideas and help to prioritise technical work
  • operate in an Agile environment utilising scrum methodology
  • be part of an open, friendly, and distributed team. We love being proactive and simplifying very technical concepts to the business

We’re looking for someone who is:

  • hands-on when building data pipelines
  • able to demonstrate coding knowledge in JVM languages (Java, Kotlin, or Scala), as well as Ruby or Python (you don’t have to be great at coding in them all)
  • adept at working with Graph Databases
  • knowledgeable in data stream processing using Kafka Streams or similar
  • able to demonstrate understanding of containerised micro services architecture


(We know it’s tough, but please try to avoid the ​​confidence gap​.​​ You don’t have to match all the bullet points above to be considered for this role.)

We encourage people of all different backgrounds and identities to apply. We are committed to maintaining an inclusive, supportive place for you to be you and do your very best work.

What are the benefits of working at Simply Business?

We offer a great work-life balance where every team member has a manageable workload and the flexibility to work hybrid. 

On top of the 25 days annual leave (plus bank holidays), we offer leave that suits your needs. Plus the option to buy five more days of holiday with your flexible benefits. 

Our flexible parental leave allows you to approach an important time how you want – with six months full pay to the primary caregiver and four weeks full pay if you’re the secondary caregiver.

Our life event leave is an extra days leave every two years for those big moments in your life like moving house or your birthday. And as a thank you to our long-serving employees we offer a two week paid sabbatical after five years of service, then four weeks off after ten years of service.

And our core benefits can put your mind at ease with private medical insurance through BUPA, that covers any pre-existing condition. And a health cash plan that covers your everyday medical expenses.

We also make sure you’re compensated fairly with a competitive salary based on your experience and the market we’re in. Plus the potential to earn an annual bonus based on performance.

There’s access to the tools to support your personal development with programmes on our dedicated learning platform. As well as support for your mental health with access to counselling. 

We’ll match what you put into your pension up to five per cent. And pass on a tax-free sum that’s four times your basic salary with our life assurance policy, with the option to increase it to ten times through our flexible benefit scheme

Our salary sacrifice car scheme gives you the option to buy a brand new, fully insured, and maintained car for a convenient fixed monthly amount taken from your gross salary (after 6 months service).

And our flexible benefits scheme gives you an allocated amount to use each year on benefits like critical illness cover, dental insurance, travel insurance, or a gym membership.

Ready to join us and drive our success as a high-performing team? Apply today.
