As a Senior Software Engineer within Mobile Playback, you'll be joining a team of engineers developing our Media Player components, the core playback engine of all video and audio content across the BBC online.

The BBC is recognised throughout the world for the quality of the content that we produce and the programmes that we broadcast.

We are looking for high calibre developers with a passion for technology to help us transform the experience for our audience when consuming media in the digital age.

The media components we build are right at the heart of the BBC's best loved products including iPlayer, Sounds, News and Sport to name just a few.

Whether you're catching up on last night's episode of EastEnders, listening to Radio 1 or jumping right into live sporting action, our media player provides a robust, reliable and consistent playback experience.

As a Senior Engineer you will contribute to the development of features, fix bugs and issues, review code from others in the team and make a key contribution to the entire development lifecycle, from conception, discovery through development and delivery.

You will also take responsibility for the technical direction of features and provide support to more junior engineers.

We care about code quality and clean architecture. As a team we work on both Android and iOS platforms.

For this particular role we are looking for an engineer with a strong background in Android with experience using Kotlin and Java.

You will also have opportunities to grow and specialise.

You will need a desire to keep learning and growing, with support from crossteam groups, meet-ups, and chapters focussed on topics such as Android and iOS development, accessibility, security, development practices, continuous delivery, and many other areas of interest.

We are looking for an experienced engineer who is excited by, and keen to pursue a career working with mobile software components.

Priority consideration means for those employees seeking redeployment their application will be considered alongside anyone else at risk of redundancy, prior to any individuals being considered who are not at risk.

We don't focus simply on what we do – we also care how we do it. Diversity matters at the BBC.

We want to attract the broadest range of talented people to be part of the BBC – whether that's to contribute to our programming or our wide range of non-production roles.

The more diverse our workforce, the better able we are to respond to and reflect our audiences in all their diversity.

We are committed to equality of opportunity and welcome applications from individuals, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socio-economic background, religion and/or belief.

We will consider flexible working requests for all roles, unless operational requirements prevent otherwise.
