The Business

At RVU we combine the close-knit and agile environment of a startup, with the know-how, technology, and backing of a well-established company.

Our mission is to empower people to make confident decisions. With our unique set of brands, including Uswitch, Confused.com, Tempcover, Money.co.uk, and Mojo, we have the power to reach millions of consumers and the technology to deliver a world class online experience for them. We’re proud to be recruiting a Lead Platform Engineer for our sister company, Tempcover, who are based in Fleet, Hampshire.

For over 15 years, Tempcover has been at the forefront of the fast-growing world of short term insurance.

From originators to innovators, we’ve evolved our business and our industry with pioneering ideas that remove the frustration of traditional insurance and put drivers in control of their insurance. Our mission is to make insurance flexible, quick, and easy for drivers and so far, we’ve sold over three million policies that have helped drivers get where they need to go, but we’re not finished there. We’re growing our team to help us continue in that mission.

If you are extraordinary at what you do and want to be a part of a rapidly growing business at the cutting edge of the InsureTech industry, we would love to hear from you.

Primary Function of the Position

Reporting to the Director of Tech, each Technical Lead plays an integral role in the development, delivery, maintenance, and support of our insurance-based systems, both public-facing and internal. 

Technical Leads contribute to all aspects of the software development lifecycle, from design to delivery and ongoing support and maintenance. They are also responsible for driving not only the technical vision of the business, but also the vision of their own teams and products, leading the team to realise and deliver on these visions.

Core Responsibilities of the Position 
  • Alongside the Product owner, you’ll be responsible for setting the technical and product direction of your team, setting realistic timelines, identifying risks, and ensuring the project goals and deliverables are correctly implemented. 
  • Lead a team of engineers around a cross functional product team, providing guidance and mentorship for individuals helping them grow in their careers.
  • Identify opportunities for process improvement, perform thorough code reviews, ensure solutions are tested correctly, oversee quality assurance, and ensure best practices are followed.
  • Facilitate communication between technical and non-technical team members and stakeholders, acting as the main point of contact for technical issues providing guidance and problem resolution.
  • Actively participate in sprint development, contributing to coding tasks, with a focus on tackling the more complex technical challenges that require specialised expertise.
  • Use your technical knowledge and expertise to help build a better Tempcover, and bring people along with you on that journey.
  • Provide overall technical guidance and mentorship to team members, whether within their immediate team or as a technical department as a whole.
  • Leverage real time metrics, data, and testing to continuously monitor and enhance your product’s performance, ensuring its health & robustness throughout.
  • Pioneering the future of Tempcovers’ product development, employing technologies - like React, .Net Core, Cloud-Native solutions, and more - to construct robust, scalable platforms to build upon.

Skills and Requirements
  • High level of proficiency developing applications using most of the following: 
      • C# ASP.NET, .Net Core
      • HTML, CSS, JavaScript
      • SOLID Principles
      • Web API
      • React/Typescript
  • Experience managing teams and engineers within agile teams (large or small) and aspiration to continue to do so.
  • A source of enthusiasm in the team, continually driving people to think of the bigger picture and make impactful changes.
  • You’re pragmatic and deliver thoughtful and awesome solutions to business problems.
  • You want to grow within your career and are looking for a place that lets you have immediate, meaningful impact.
