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+ yearsin 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.
