Working in engineering:
Working at Nintex as an engineer means building more than just software; it's about making a tangible impact with every line of code. Our engineers are process experts, developing the industry's most complete process and automation platform to transform the way people work. If you're interested, curious and want to learn and do more, the sky is the limit here. We take a solutions-oriented and collaborative approach, constantly innovating our business and products.
About the role:
As a Senior Software Engineer on Nintex's Site Reliability Engineering team, your customers are Nintex's own engineers. You'll build the tooling, automation, and platform capabilities that our engineering teams depend on to ship fast and run reliably. Our SRE team is a mixture of software engineers and engineers from a DevOps background, and software projects are a regular part of what we do. We follow Google's definition of SRE: treat operations as a software problem.
The work spans developer experience, platform reliability, automation, performance testing and internal tooling. One quarter you might build AI agents with SRE skills, or an API for our delivery teams' pipelines. The next, it could be a custom plugin for a tool like Grafana, or automation that takes toil off engineers' plates.
We work spec-first, with AI in the loop. Using Nintex's own proven spec-driven development process, you get the thinking right in a spec, then use AI tools such as Claude to go from spec to working software quickly. Your time goes into system design, sharp specs, critical review of what AI produces, and owning the result in production.
We build in languages such as Go, Python and TypeScript, on Azure and AWS. Deployments run through ArgoCD, code and pipelines live in GitHub, and we use Claude Code for AI-assisted coding.
Nintex is a large company with an excellent culture, and this team feels more like a start-up. There is real room to put ideas forward and run with them. You'll often take an idea, build a proof of concept on your own, and present it back to the SRE team, the Platform team, or all of Nintex R&D. As a Senior Engineer you work independently, with the trust and freedom to decide the best way forward. Your peers rely on you as a technical resource, and you help other engineers grow through pairing, review and honest feedback.
Your contribution will be:
- Design, build and own internal tools, automation and platform capabilities that improve engineer productivity and platform reliability, from spec to production
- Partner with Platform Engineers on developer experience projects that remove friction from how Nintex teams build, test, ship and run software
- Apply Nintex's proven spec-driven development process, and use AI tools such as Claude Code to speed up design, implementation, testing and review
- Own the quality of everything you ship, whether you or an AI wrote it: review critically, test meaningfully and build in observability from day one
- Put ideas forward and prove them out with solo proof-of-concept projects, then present what you learned back to the teams
- Build performance testing and reliability tooling that finds problems before they reach production
- Work with engineering teams across Nintex to find where they lose time, and measure whether what you built fixed it
- Debug and resolve complex technical issues in production and development environments, then automate away the cause
- Help set direction through quarterly planning and prioritisation, technical design discussions and reviews
- Mentor other engineers through pairing, design and code review, and knowledge sharing
- Document specs, decisions and systems so that both people and AI tools can work with them
- Identify technical debt and toil, and propose pragmatic ways to remove them
- Explore emerging tools and techniques, and bring what works back to the team
- Take part in interviewing and training new team members
To be successful , we think you need:
Experience
- Typically 5+ years of software engineering experience, including at least 2 years building and running production systems
- A track record of delivering complex work independently, from design to deployment
- A love of open-ended problems: you can take an early idea, shape it into a clear spec and see it through
Technical Expertise & Leadership
- Strong proficiency in at least one modern programming language such as Go, Python or TypeScript, and the fundamentals to pick up others quickly
- Solid system design skills and good judgement about trade-offs
- Experience with, or a real appetite for, AI-assisted and spec-driven development, with the judgement to know when to trust AI output and when to challenge it
- A working understanding of cloud platforms (we use Azure and AWS), CI/CD pipelines and automated testing
- Hands-on experience with Docker and containerisation
- Good instincts for debugging, observability and performance in production systems
- Fluency with Git and modern development workflows
- Working knowledge of databases (SQL and/or NoSQL)
- A habit of making the engineers around you better through mentoring, review and clear communication
Nice to have
- DevOps or platform engineering experience, such as GitOps deployments with ArgoCD, infrastructure as code, and/or Kubernetes
- Experience with performance testing or reliability engineering
