Role OverviewAs the Founding Product & Platform Engineer, you'll define the architecture, tooling, engineering culture and development practices behind the next generation of SGS digital products. You'll lead by example, making key technical decisions through hands-on delivery rather than governance.
What You Will Do
You'll lead the architecture and delivery of our most ambitious customer-facing solutions, owning everything from frontend experiences to backend services and cloud infrastructure. You'll create the tooling, deployment pathways and reusable building blocks that allow engineers to move quickly, safely and independently.
Why It Might Be a Fit
If you're excited by greenfield environments, ambiguity, ownership and the opportunity to shape something from day one, we'd love to hear from you.
