About the Role
Senior Software Engineer
We’re free thinkers. We’re innovators. We’re #ConsultantsWhoCode.
Are you a seasoned Senior Software Engineer passionate about making an impact? Join EDF, a leader in the energy sector, and help power the future with innovative tech solutions! We’re working on large-scale, customer-facing applications for our customers. If you're ready to advance your career while contributing to a Net Zero future, this is the opportunity for you.
The Opportunity…
We’re a multi-disciplined team with generalists and specialists; be it front-end, back-end, full stack developer or DevOps. We offer opportunities for engineers who want to help shape, develop and grow our software engineering practice, whilst developing their own skills, knowledge and career.
Our team works to create bespoke applications to enable teams across EBS to manage their workflows in a more efficient and secure way. We then continue to provide support for these applications throughout their lifespan.
By coordinating with other development teams as well as operational users, we are able to deliver high quality, comprehensive and reliable tailor-made solutions to meet your team’s unique requirements.
Pay, benefits and culture
We want to provide transparency on the salary range while encouraging applicants with varied levels of experience to apply. The starting range is £72,000, but if your expectations exceed this, we'd still love to hear from you.
Your rewards package includes a market-leading pension scheme, customisable benefits such as electric vehicle leasing, discounted gym membership, life assurance, healthcare cash plan, tech vouchers, product discounts, experience days, and more.
At EDF UK, we embrace flexibility while recognising that everyone's working needs are different. Whether you're in our office spaces, on site, or working remotely, we promote an environment that supports collaboration, connection, and comfort. No matter where you are, our priority is to make sure you feel safe, valued, and celebrated. The role will require travel to the Exeter Office as and when required.
Here, we do right by each other and everyone’s welcome. We’re on an action-oriented journey, championing equity, diversity, and inclusion. We’d like our future workforce to have an equal gender balance, represent a broad mix of people from minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+, those with a disability and supporting social mobility.
We’re a disability confident employer and we’ll do all we can to help with your application. Please let us know if you need to request reasonable adjustments.
We take pride in fostering a dynamic and inclusive environment, where the diverse backgrounds and experiences of our employees drive fresh thinking and innovation. We understand that success means different things to different people. We believe there are multiple definitions of what it means to succeed. That’s why we support you to pursue a career that’s unique to you. Because success is personal.
