Summary: This role involves shaping a platform by designing and delivering end-to-end applications, engineering at scale with global teams, elevating craft through agile DevOps, and modernizing the tech stack. Highlights: 1. Shape the platform: Design and deliver end-to-end applications 2. Engineer at scale: Collaborate with global pods of experts 3. Modernize the stack: Transform with cloud, containers, and web frameworks **Hybrid model: 3 days in office 2 days remote** ***What******you’ll******do*** * **Shape the platform**: Design, build, and deliver end\-to\-end applications across data, middleware, APIs, and UI, integrating modern services with legacy systems to end applications across data, middleware, APIs, and UI, integrating modern services with legacy systems. * **Engineer at scale**: Collaborate with global pods of engineers, architects, BAs, and scientists to deliver reliable, high\-quality software in a fast\-moving R\&D environment. * **Elevate the craft**: Champion agile DevOps practices, testing discipline, CI/CD, and clear standards, and help evolve our engineering culture. * **Modernize the stack**: Transform a siloed estate into a seamless ecosystem with great user experiences, using cloud (AWS), containers, and modern web frameworks. ***What******you’ll******bring*** * **Full stack fluency**: Strong Python (and willingness to learn new languages), plus a major web framework and frontend experience (JavaScript with React/Angular,). end experience (JavaScript with React/Vue/Angular, CSS with Bootstrap/MUI/Tailwind). * **Data and cloud skills:** Experience with data storage across both relational and object\-based models. * Strong knowledge of software design and data structures. * Cloud exposure (compute, storage), and solid design/data structures knowledge. * **Build quality in**: Unit testing best practices, CI/CD (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Travis CI), and data analysis (profiling, interpreting, documenting). * **Ways of working**: Clear communication, strong teamwork, critical thinking, and a product mindset—pick the right tool, solve problems, raise the bar. Nice to have * **Scientific domain exposure**: Background or interest in chemistry, biology, or cheminformatics. * **Tools \&****process**: Jira, Confluence, Git, Jenkins; agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban, SAFe). * **Growth mindset**: Active knowledge sharing and continuous learning. Why AstraZeneca * **Real\-world impact**: Your code helps scientists discover and learn faster, improving patient outcomes. * **Modern engineering**: Evolving toward true DevOps, blending AI/ML platforms, COTS, and custom solutions. * **Global collaboration**: Work with distributed teams, diverse disciplines, and cutting\-edge science.
