  • Cloud Ready - Help the organization reap the full benefits of cloud.

We generally engage in two broad categories of work:

  • Vertical: We work alongside other teams to provide support and guidance on how to accelerate their transformation.
  • Horizontal: We leverage the experience matured in the Vertical work to build or share existing cross cutting tools and practices that can be used by any team in the organisation.

  • Hands on Software Engineering, with experience in building applications with at least one of the following languages and technologies: Java, JavaScript or Python.
  • Experience of working in a cloud environment (e.g. GCP, Azure, AWS) is a must.
  • Good interpersonal skills and a good communicator with technical and non-technical people.

 

Oh, and if you have exposure to the following that would be ideal, but please still apply if you don't. Desirable experience:

  • Containers, Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code.
  • Proficiency in Shell scripting and an awareness of security considerations.

 

Together we make it possible. Lloyds Banking Group vision is to be the best bank for customer and to realize it we have the mission to make it the best bank for Engineers!

 

What you'd get in return:

Offering you both opportunity and profile - we'll provide you with a diverse, energising and lively environment that focuses on equal opportunity and real career progression. We'll take your personal and professional development very seriously and enable you to make a genuine difference to millions throughout your career with us.

 

We'll also give you a great remuneration package which includes a variable, discretionary performance share bonus, a generous pension contribution of up to 15%, a 4% flexible benefit (cash pot you can adjust to suit your lifestyle), private health cover, 30 days holiday plus bank holidays and access to share schemes and staff discounts.

Company

We’re creating an organisation that attracts, retains and develops the best talent in the industry, and one that openly embraces diversity too. But more than that – we want to be a great place to work. We invest in our people, offering the best training and coaching, and by encouraging them to contribute to our leading corporate and social responsibility practices. We offer flexible working hours and days, under our Work Options scheme. This means that you can have a challenging and rewarding career, and still have an ideal work/life balance.

Flexible working is at the heart of our strategy. We’re re-imagining where, when, and how our people work, with new approaches designed to meet the ever-changing needs of customers and colleagues. These include increasing our use of remote-working tools and technology, as well as placing less reliance on a 9-to-5 mindset. For many of our office-based colleagues, we work in hybrid ways which involves spending at least two days per week or 40% of their time at one of our office sites.
