Are you an experienced software engineer looking for an exciting new challenge? Then why not join our R&D IT Solution Delivery team and play a pivotal role in modernising systems and processes enabling drug discovery in our Early Science Drug Discovery program.



This is an outstanding opportunity for a lead engineer to advance modern software development practices within our team (DevOps/CI/CD/automated testing), building a bespoke integrated software framework (on-premise/cloud/COTS) which will accelerate the ability of AZ scientists to develop new drug candidates for unmet patient needs.



To achieve this goal we need a strong individual to lead teams of engineers, as well as engage and influence other global teams within Solution Delivery to ensure that our priorities are aligned with the needs of our science. The successful candidate will be a hands-on coder, passionate about software development and also willing to coach and enable wider teams to grow and expand their software delivery capabilities and skills.



At AstraZeneca we believe in the potential of our people and you'll develop beyond what you thought possible. We make the most of your skills and passion by actively supporting you to see what you can achieve in your wider career aspirations.

Working alongside platform lead, architect, BA, and informaticians you will be working to understand, devise technical solutions, estimate and deliver and run operationally sustainable platform software. You need to use your technical acumen to determine an optimal balance between COTS and home-grown solutions and own their lifecycles and roadmap.



Our delivery teams are distributed across multiple locations and as Lead Engineer you will need to coordinate activities of technical internal and contract employees. You must be capable of leading others, showing humility while striving to enable the development of platform technical team members in our journey. You will raise expectations within the whole team, solve complex technical problems and work alongside complementary delivery platforms while aligning solutions with scientific and data strategies and target architecture.

* Experience with Monitoring tools like Splunk and AppDynamics
* Experience of vendor/technology selection to fulfill specific gaps in the solution stack
* Ability and willingness to learn new technologies
