As an engineer in Tesco Labs, you will focus on creating applications to demonstrate innovative concepts or new disruptive technologies. Working with product managers and UX designers you will be responsible for rapid prototyping, testing hypotheses, solving problems and developing new propositions to the required level of performance and scalability.

Being in a research lab environment you’ll be an early adopter, maintaining a good knowledge of the latest technologies and devices (both consumer and business), keeping abreast of technological developments, and looking for opportunities to use those new technologies to benefit customers or colleagues. 

You’ll need to be a great coach, sharing your knowledge amongst other team members, and advising, mentoring, teaching and inspiring our Technology graduate groups during their placements in the Tesco Labs team.

You will be responsible for
  • Working with our product, research, and program teams to ideate, define propositions, and define how success will be measured
  • Translating requirements into tasks & code
  • Use your knowledge of the required languages and frameworks to lead the creation of everything from proof of concepts to complete systems
  • Supporting both development and production systems, resolving incidents, and performing root cause analysis
  • Sharing knowledge within the team and the wider engineering community
You will need
  • Good knowledge of the full development stack, including databases & APIs
  • Experience using SQL & NoSQL Databases
  • Experience with cloud platforms (e.g. Azure)
  • Exposure to the DevOps model
  • Any experience with additional technologies including Machine Learning/AI, image or voice recognition, electronics, etc. would be very beneficial but not essential

Skills relevant for the job: 

  • A passion for technology, thinking differently and trying new things
  • A positive and robust mental attitude with the ability to handle setbacks
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic, and rapidly changing environment
  • Strong initiative, with ability to research new technologies and demonstrate and how they can benefit our business
  • Great communication and presentation skills, ability to speak to stakeholders at all levels
  • Problem solving, analysis and computational skills
  • Innovative approach to problem solving
