About the job you're considering
Capgemini are recruiting highly skilled Senior Engineers to join their dynamic team, delivering solutions for a major public sector client. This is an opportunity to work on meaningful projects that impact millions of people, in an environment that values innovation and collaboration.
Our mature Agile environment provides a supportive space to collaborate with specialists from other disciplines. You’ll be part of a culture that encourages continuous improvement, knowledge sharing, and technical excellence.
Our Senior Engineer
You’ll focus on delivering critical digital services from cradle to grave working on a variety of projects featuring high-performance cloud platforms using Java based languages and technologies, and on-premises traditional infrastructure.
Hybrid working
Your working location will vary depending on your role, personal needs, and business requirements. This will typically include a mix of company offices, client sites, and remote work from home. If your location is Telford or Worthing (please note the Worthing office will relocate to Brighton & Hove in the second half of 2026) you will be expected to work from the office between 40% and 70% of the time. For all other locations you need to be prepared to come into the Telford or Worthing office once to twice a month (Lead Engineers more frequently). As we align closely with customer requirements, which may change over time, you will need to remain flexible. Please note that fully remote working (100% from home) is not permitted.
If you are successfully offered this position, you will go through a series of pre-employment checks, including:
- identity, nationality (single or dual) or immigration status,
- employment history going back 3 continuous years, and
- unspent criminal record check (known as Disclosure and Barring Service).
Your role
We’re looking for people who are learning focused, challenge the status quo and are constantly looking to shape their working environment to make it an exciting, fun and interesting place to work.
As a Software Engineer your primary focus will be to deliver user stories whilst working as a part of a multi-disciplined team.
- You’ll be working closely with analysts and designers to build, deploy and support your services using well established software development techniques such as TDD, BDD and pair programming.
- Getting involved with all stages of service delivery including testing, configuring, deploying, supporting, and monitoring using industry standard tooling, to truly work in a DevSecOps capacity.
- Whilst working in a collaborative environment you are going to meet a variety of different people who, like you, have a wealth of knowledge and experience. As a part of one or more communities, you will have the opportunity to influence how we grow as a delivery centre and how we do things by sharing ideas and working with others to make things better.
Senior engineers are expected to lead by example, fostering a culture of excellence. You will actively mentor junior engineers and support their wellbeing, professional growth, and development, including through effective performance management.

Your knowledge and experience will be used to change the way we build solutions including utilising new tools and technologies to solve new problems or improve existing services.
Working on our services means you’ll be part of a team, but you’ll also be a part of communities of interest. This means you’ll always have people on hand to share and discuss ideas and get help when needed. The engineering organisation is engineering led, supporting each other through coaching and mentoring, so if you want to change something it’s within your power to do so.
