About the role


Being a Senior Engineer at Blexr is about having a holistic approach to software
development. Bring your expertise to the product and actively collaborate with
Product Managers, Engineers, Designers, QA, DevOps and stakeholders to
ensure the team is highly cohesive and able to deliver against product
outcomes. You will be setting standards and leading cultural change to ensure
the team stays updated with modern technologies and ways of working; helping
to shift left parts of traditionally separate areas such as Quality and DevOps. You
will focus on understanding the needs of our customers, the needs of our team,
how to communicate ideas effectively and producing high-quality production
software that enable us to move at pace.

Blexr is going through a tremendous amount of change and this role is an


exciting opportunity to work across greenfield and brownfield opportunities,
help to establish the architecture for our key publishing platforms, help to
recognise Blexr’s vision and create the conditions and culture for long term
growth and success. And have some fun along the way.

Key responsibilities
• Support product delivery by building, testing, and releasing production
quality features utilising best engineering practices.
• Ensure software is of high quality, security, performance, reliability,
robust, extensibility, resiliency, observability, etc. by having a holistic
approach to software development.
• Write simple, clean, test-driven secure code with a focus on modern good
practises while minimising technical debt and complexity.
• Refactor, optimise, and improve existing code for better maintainability
and scalability, and reduce technical debt in general.
• Produce key documentation and artefacts to ensure a common
understanding of the engineering characteristics of your product.
• Test own work with a view to minimal work items being returned for
defects to be fixed.
• Lead by example through mechanisms such as design/code reviews and
virtual pairing.
• Be a champion for your Engineering approach within your tribe and within
Blexr.
• Help develop product specifications, architectural design, build and
deployment automation.
• Be responsible for the availability and reliability characteristics of your
application.

issues.

• Highly opinionated (but open minded!) on what best practice looks like -

team and your project.
