Software Development Team Lead
Oxfordshire | Hybrid Working | Competitive Salary + Benefits
Our client is an established technology business with a reputation for engineering excellence and innovation. They are seeking a Software Development Team Lead to guide a team of developers building modern web-based applications and services that support a range of business-critical products and solutions.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced software professional who enjoys balancing technical leadership with people development. You'll have the freedom to influence architectural decisions, drive best practice, and help create an environment where talented engineers can thrive.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
This role offers the chance to:
- Lead a highly skilled software team delivering modern web applications and services.
- Influence technical strategy, engineering standards, and development processes.
- Remain hands-on with software design and development while growing your leadership career.
- Work closely with stakeholders to deliver solutions that provide real value to users.
- Help shape future products, features, and technology initiatives.
- Join a collaborative organisation that values innovation, quality, and continuous improvement.
Why This Role Is Great
Shape the Future of Software Delivery
Play a key role in designing and delivering scalable applications, helping ensure solutions remain reliable, maintainable, and ready for future growth.
Develop and Inspire Others
Support, mentor, and coach developers within the team, helping them build confidence, expand their skills, and progress in their careers.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Drive Technical Excellence
Champion high-quality software engineering practices, encouraging clean code, robust architecture, effective testing, and continuous improvement.
Solve Interesting Challenges
Work on a variety of technical projects that require creative thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration across multiple teams.
Influence Product Development
Contribute ideas, improvements, and innovations that help enhance existing solutions and support future growth opportunities.
Build Strong Relationships
Partner with colleagues across technical and non-technical functions to understand requirements, align priorities, and deliver successful outcomes.
About You
You may currently be a Team Lead, Lead Developer, Senior Software Engineer, Technical Lead, Engineering Manager, or an experienced developer ready to take the next step.
Our client would be excited to hear from candidates with experience in many of the following areas:
- Commercial software development experience using technologies such as C#, .NET, and modern web development frameworks.
- Experience building web applications, APIs, and scalable software solutions.
- Knowledge of software architecture, design patterns, and engineering best practices.
- Exposure to front-end technologies such as JavaScript, TypeScript, or modern frameworks.
- Experience working within Agile software development environments.
