Lead Java Engineer
6 months
Telford - Hybrid - min. 2 days per week on site
£(Apply online only) per day - Umbrella only

We're looking for an engineer, experienced in Java, Spring, Platforms Integration, Kubernetes and ideally React Front End development.

Suitable candidates will be adept at working through technical challenges, driving out solutions and leading others to understand and develop these. They will relish not having all the answers and instead being the person coming up with the answers.

The role will require collaborative working, initially with Architects, QA Leads and Engagement Managers and as the project moves into Build, a full engineering team.

The role will include accountability for creating the low level design (LLD) for the ECS service (building on the Architectural design work already in flight). The LLD will cover the entirety of the service and serve as the main input into formal impacting and backlog creation for the Build phase, expected to run for 12-18 months.

Post the Design phase, the role will include leading (technically) the development and delivery of the ECS Modernisation changes; adopting shared / common components built within the wider Mod. programme, driving ways of working in line with the engineering principles and assuring the work in the team.

As a Lead Engineer in the Mod. programme within Tax Admin, you'll be part of a community of Lead Engineers and the wider Mod. engineering community too.

In this guide, we’ll explore how to uncover hidden cloud computing jobs in the UK by using professional bodies like BCS, IET, Cloud Industry Forum, and more. You’ll learn how to tap into membership directories, join special-interest groups, attend CPD events, and use insider networks to get ahead in your job search—before roles hit the job boards.

How to Get a Better Cloud Computing Job After a Lay-Off or Redundancy

Lay-offs in the cloud computing sector have hit many professionals hard in recent years, often as part of broader tech cutbacks or cloud migration slowdowns. But the truth is: cloud skills remain in high demand. From AWS and Azure to Google Cloud Platform (GCP), UK employers across fintech, healthcare, government, defence, and retail are still hiring cloud engineers, DevOps professionals, solutions architects, and platform specialists. Redundancy doesn’t mean you're off-track—it can be the launchpad for your next, better role. This guide will walk you through the essential steps to bounce back, rebuild confidence, and secure a cloud computing role that aligns with your skills and goals.

Cloud Computing Jobs Salary Calculator 2025: Discover Your True Worth in the UK Cloud Market

Why last year’s pay survey is already obsolete in cloud computing “Am I being paid what I’m worth?” Ask any Cloud Engineer staring at spiralling AWS invoices, a Site Reliability Engineer on call at 3 a.m., or a Cloud Architect stitching together hybrid Kubernetes clusters, & you’ll hear the same anxiety. The cloud ecosystem reshapes itself every quarter: hyperscaler price cuts, brand‑new GPU instance families for generative AI, & sudden security advisories that send CISOs scrambling. In such a volatile landscape, a 2024 salary pdf is about as useful as last year’s cost‑optimisation dashboard—it under‑reports reality from the moment it’s printed. To give UK professionals an up‑to‑date benchmark, CloudComputingJobs.co.uk distilled a transparent, three‑factor formula that estimates a realistic 2025 salary in under a minute. Feed in your role, your region, & your seniority; the result offers a defensible figure for negotiations, job applications, or annual reviews. This article walks through the calculation, unpacks the strongest forces pushing cloud salaries upward, & outlines five concrete steps to boost your market value within ninety days.
