Join Nordcloud and be part of the European cloud revolution. We supercharge our customers to innovate in hyperscaler cloud, enabling seamless migration, advanced security, and data-driven success. Senior Python Developer (AI Augmented) Level: Senior (5-7 years) Location: London / Hybrid policy Employment type: Permanent Reporting to: Lead Architect Why this role exists We're modernising a complex back end and need senior developers who can move fast with quality-leveraging AI augmented coding tools (Claude, GitHub Copilot, CodeLlama/Codex, etc.) to accelerate analysis of the current system and delivery of well tested, maintainable features. You'll pair program frequently, practice TDD, and own your code from dev to prod. What you'll do Build & ship Python services: Design, implement, and maintain backend services/APIs (Django or FastAPI), with clear boundaries, strong typing, and robust observability. Use AI for the heavy lifting: Employ AI tools to analyse legacy code, draft migration plans, generate scaffolds/tests, and speed up refactors-while applying human judgment to validate outputs and manage risks. TDD as standard: Write tests first and automate end to end validation (e.g., Playwright for web flows; pytest for unit/integration). Pair program often: Co design and co code to raise quality, share context, and keep momentum; rotate pairs for knowledge spread. Own the path to production: Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines; configure environments; instrument services (logging/metrics/traces); champion release health. Provision infra as code: Use Terraform to define cloud resources; keep everything reproducible and reviewable. Data & persistence: Model and optimise relational stores (SQL), write migrations, and tune performance. Engineering rigor: Code reviews, ADRs, threat modelling, performance profiling, and continuous refactoring. Team leadership: Mentor peers, help refine tickets, contribute to roadmaps, and uphold engineering standards. What you'll bring Must haves 5-7 years professional software development experience, with a very strong Python background. Hands on experience with AI augmented coding (e.g., Claude, GitHub Copilot, Codex), including practical understanding of pros/cons (context windows, hallucinations, privacy, licensing, code provenance, and when not to use AI). Solid web service development with Django or FastAPI. Strong SQL skills (schema design, migrations, query optimisation). Proven TDD mindset (unit/integration) and UI/E2E testing with Playwright. DevOps fluency: build/deploy your own pipelines (GitHub Actions/Azure DevOps/GitLab CI, etc.), containerisation (Docker), environment configuration, and infrastructure as code with Terraform. Comfortable with pair programming as a default practice; excellent communication and collaboration. Bias for action: you work quickly, test thoroughly, and keep quality high. Nice to haves Java experience (helpful for legacy interop; not essential). Cloud experience (AWS/Azure/GCP), including networking, secrets, and observability stacks (OpenTelemetry/Prometheus/Grafana). Security by design: OWASP, dependency scanning, SBOMs, and least privilege IAM. Performance tuning at API/database layers. How we build (principles) AI accelerated, human validated: Use AI to explore, summarise, and draft-engineers remain accountable for correctness, security, and maintainability. Test first: Every change includes tests; flaky tests are treated as production bugs. Small batches: Short lived branches, frequent merges, and automated deploys. Observability: SLOs, golden signals, and actionable alerts. Code health: Continuous refactoring, dependency hygiene, and ADRs for key decisions. We encourage you to apply, even if you don't meet all of the requirements. We value your growth potential and enthusiasm! What we offer Individual training budget and exam fees for certifications Flexible working hours and hybrid working model Company laptop and needed equipment Local package such as up to 7% matched pension contributions, extensive private health care, Bupa dental plan, and a seasonal ticket loan, enhanced maternity and parental leave, gym expense or well being monthly and mobile phone allowance Please read our Recruitment Privacy Policy before applying.

We are moving toward smaller, more autonomous engineering teams with greater ownership of outcomes, supported by AI-augmented development practices and modern tooling. This transition is underway but not complete, and the Director of Engineering will play a central role in making it real. The Director of Engineering is a senior leadership role that sits between the CTO and the engineering teams. The CTO remains accountable for overall technology vision and alignment with product and commercial strategy. The Director of Engineering is accountable for translating that vision into consistent execution, scalable systems, and high-performing teams.

Define expectations for AI-augmented development, including tooling standards, acceptable use, and how quality and productivity gains are measured. Stay current with relevant emerging technologies and evaluate their practical application to Foods Connected's platforms. Be technically credible by engaging meaningfully in architectural discussions and challenging proposals where needed, without being a day-to-day code contributor. Enabling Delivery and Operational Excellence (35%) Work through the Engineering Manager and senior Technical Leads to ensure teams have the clarity, support, and tooling required to deliver effectively. Own the operational rhythm of engineering, including planning cadence, delivery coordination, and cross-team alignment. Set clear expectations for delivery quality and pace while supporting teams as they build greater autonomy. Drive process improvements that reduce friction and overhead rather than adding bureaucracy. Balance concurrent priorities across feature delivery, platform evolution, and technical debt reduction. Act as the senior escalation point for delivery, quality, and technical risk issues Coordinate closely with the Director of Data and Director of Infrastructure and Security to ensure integrated execution across the Engineering Division. Manage stakeholder and customer expectations regarding technical capabilities, timelines, and trade-offs.
