About this opportunity

You're a software engineer with experience in Enterprise JavaScript, both front and back-end. You can rapidly assimilate domain knowledge and apply this in a sophisticated technical environment. You immerse yourself in the code. You can confidently work alone. You can productively collaborate. You always deliver.

Come join LBG's Protection Platform, where we help our customers plan for the unexpected events in life. Our life and critical illness products help thousands of people every year. Help us build on our brand new strategic architecture to help even more. We are a talented and welcoming team – come make us even better.

What you'll need

Proven experience as a Software Engineer of:

• Enterprise JavaScript/Typescript - React.js and Node.js
• Automated testing
• Microservices using OpenAPI and Kubernetes
• A passion to deliver in a team context

And any experience of these would be really useful:

• Nest.js
• Enterprise integrations and infrastructure
• Build and deployment technologies for private and public cloud

About working for us

Our focus is to ensure we're inclusive every day, building an organisation that reflects modern society and celebrates diversity in all its forms.

We want our people to feel that they belong and can be their best, regardless of background, identity or culture.

We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and a dedicated Working with Cancer initiative.

And it's why we especially welcome applications from under-represented groups.

We're disability confident. So, if you'd like reasonable adjustments to be made to our recruitment processes, just let us know.

We also offer a wide-ranging benefits package, which includes:

• A generous pension contribution of up to 15%
• An annual performance-related bonus
• Share schemes including free shares
• Benefits you can adapt to your lifestyle, such as discounted shopping
• 29 days' holiday, with bank holidays on top
• A range of wellbeing initiatives and generous parental leave policies
