Job description

About this opportunity 

 

We're the team that looks after the customer data for the whole of Lloyds Banking Group. Our mission is to make this data available for the right purpose with the appropriate confidentiality and always ensuring a phenomenal engineering experience based on performance, resilience, and integrity.  
 

We’re looking for technically minded Java engineers who’ve delivered projects end‑to‑end, value well‑tested software, and thrive on production feedback. You should be curious, able to design and communicate robust solutions, and work in short XP‑style iterations. You’ll join an established team, learn quickly, and grow into a strong contributor who can mentor peers and collaborate effectively with stakeholders. 

 

What you’ll need 

We understand that no one can be an expert in every aspect of Software Engineering. So, if you have a strong technical background, we’d like to hear from you. 

  

Specifically, we’re looking for:  

  • A hands-on Software Engineering background with experience in building applications in Java, using a broad set of tools, techniques, and platforms, with a focus on proving it works and does the right thing.  

  • Experience working with Spring, Hibernate, REST APIs, JSON, and Microservices 

  • Good understanding of clean software design and object-oriented principles  

  • Comfortable working with a test-driven development approach  

  • Experience working with container environments in particular Docker, Kubernetes and Helm (e.g. GCP, Azure, AWS)   

  • Experience in DevOps tooling and CI/CD automation, for example Jenkins, GitOps, and related frameworks.

  

Why Lloyds Banking Group 

We’re on an exciting journey and there couldn’t be a better time to join us. The investments we’re making in our people, data, and technology are leading to innovative projects, fresh possibilities, and countless new ways for our people to work, learn, and thrive. 

About working for us 

Our focus is to ensure we're inclusive every day, building an organisation that reflects modern society and celebrates diversity in all its forms. We want our people to feel that they belong and can be their best, regardless of background, identity or culture. We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and a dedicated Working with Cancer initiative. And it’s why we especially welcome applications from under-represented groups. We’re disability confident. So if you’d like reasonable adjustments to be made to our recruitment processes, just let us know 

 

We also offer a wide-ranging benefits package, which includes: 

• A generous pension contribution of up to 15% 

• An annual performance-related bonus 

• Share schemes including free shares 

• Benefits you can adapt to your lifestyle, such as discounted shopping 

• 30 days’ holiday, with bank holidays on top 

• A range of wellbeing initiatives and generous parental leave policies
