Applications are invited for a Tech Lead in the Software Engineering group at the Bennett Institute.

We are seeking an experienced software developer to play a lead role in the development of the OpenSAFELY platform, and the fast-growing engineering team. This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys technical leadership and running small teams, but also wishes to maintain an element of front-line, hands-on engineering.

In collaboration with the existing leadership team, you will provide line management, training, technical advice, mentorship and coaching to your colleagues. You will co-own the architectural direction of the platform, and provide guidance to build the best possible products.

We are looking for candidates who can demonstrate management skills, excellent coding skills and practical knowledge of a wide variety of collaboration tools and software delivery techniques. They should show strong user empathy and enjoy helping others to be productive.

We anticipate the role being approximately 80% leadership work, and 20% hands-on engineering.

You will be formally based in the Radcliffe Primary Care Building, Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences, Woodstock Road, Oxford, OX2 6GG as your normal place of work, but you may be able to agree a pattern of regular remote working with your line manager.

The position is full-time and fixed-term until 31 October 2026 in the first instance.

For further information or discuss the post please contact Ben Butler-Cole (benjamin.butler-cole@phc.ox.ac.uk).
