For this role, we will be looking for evidence of technical judgement and engineering thinking, for example, how you approach system design, reliability, security, data or AI safety, rather than production quality or polished demos. The exercise is designed to be accessible to candidates who lead engineering teams and may not code day to day. Videos will be scored by a small group of assessors using clear criteria. Stage 3: Interview A shortlist of candidates will be invited to a competency-based interview, assessed against the criteria set out in the job description. We'll share full details, timelines and support as you progress. We're happy to make reasonable adjustments at any stage. Use of AI in applications You can use AI to help draft your answers, but remember, we are looking for your experiences and insights, not generic or AI-generated responses.
