Are you passionate about managing teams that build, own, and operate massively scalable systems? Do you have experience in building new teams and managing existing teams? 


In Platform, our mission is to provide Babylon Engineers with a global platform that has an unrivalled developer experience. These are exciting times - we provide tools and APIs to build the next generation of digital healthcare products at a pace that’s unprecedented in the healthcare industry.  


We are building a world class enterprise API platform for use by its developer community using a mix of best of breed solutions and custom development as required. Internal users will rely on the API platform to take a “Design First”, self service approach to creating API contracts using the latest API technologies such as GraphQL, OAS3 and JSON Schema which will then drive the rest of the process and toolchain to accelerate and automate the creation of mocking, testing, and documentation services for Babylon’s API estate. The goal is for developers to be able to rely on the Babylon API “platform aaS” to help them achieve their deliverables with minimum toil.  


In addition, Babylon’s API “platform aaS” will deliver a collaborative governance framework for allowing all of the cross cutting teams to ensure that the APIs are consistent, secure, compliant, and performant throughout the API lifecycle.  


We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer with expertise, ambition, and passion for rapidly building and releasing global software products. As a senior engineer, you will be experienced in developing scalable, well-tested, and maintainable APIs, applications / microservices. Our microservices are written in Java with some parts of the system in Ruby. We are evolving a GraphQL API layer written in Typescript and implementing Apollo federation. You are well versed with DDD, BDD and TDD and must be able to translate requirements into design and specs and create maintainable applications that are easily accessible to other engineers. You bring with you experience of working with and building well designed APIs. You naturally work in an agile way to produce high quality software that solves real problems simply and elegantly.  


You embrace platform thinking, continuous integration, and test driven development. You will uphold or set the standard for engineering excellence partnering with architects, and a team of highly skilled software engineers who are creating and evolving the platform that will let us rapidly engineer at scale. You are extremely ambitious about applying DevOps principles to your work across the full technology stack. 


You understand how to continuously deliver and iterate on foundational platform software and APIs, as well as incrementally migrate existing services and API features to a new API gateway. You will be comfortable making technical tradeoffs, and fast decisions whilst learning and adapting.

WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON

  • You love the challenge of building a global platform that helps application teams deliver applications at speed.
  • Responsible for well implemented domains in our Federated GraphQL API ensuring scalability, security, reliability, performance, maintainability, as well as testability.
  • Responsible for well implemented REST APIs for business integration.
  • Working towards having a well-governed API. Resulting in APIs which can be easily consumed, versioned and independently released with the prevailing mindset to keep it simple.
  • Delivering a developer portal and documentation to allow self service consumption of the APIs. You feel relatively comfortable up and down the stack. 
  • Support teams throughout the business with their API design, modelling, documentation and implementation by sharing your knowledge and skills, providing tooling and influencing best practices. Resulting in a force multiplier to the speed of API development in the organization.
  • Mentor and develop engineers with a raise the bar mindset - champion of engineering principles outlined for Babylonian engineering teams

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

  • You love the challenge of building a global platform that helps application teams deliver applications at speed.

  • Experience developing APIs ideally using GraphQL federation - as well as TypeScript, OIDC, Cloud native and Kubernetes.
  • Strong Domain Driven Design experience highly desirable.
  • You bring strong and relevant experience and are familiar with a range of technologies.

WHAT WE OFFER
