• This is an opportunity for a driven Software Engineer to take on an exciting new career challenge
• Day-to-day, you'll be engineering and maintaining innovative, customer centric, high performance, secure and robust solutions
• It's a chance to hone your existing technical skills and advance your career while building a wide network of stakeholders

What you'll do

In your new role, you'll be working within a feature team to engineer software, scripts and tools, as well as liaising with other engineers, architects and business analysts across the platform.

You'll also be:

• Producing complex and critical software rapidly and of high quality which adds value to the business

You'll also have a genuine interest in emerging AI technologies, with exposure to LLMs and integrations using Model-Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent-2-Agent, ideally including the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform. A creative, problem-solving mindset and experience of working in an Agile team will help you thrive as we grow.

You'll also need:

• Experience with Apigee Hybrid or Apigee X as part of a broader GCP toolkit
• Working knowledge of Kubernetes, particularly Google Kubernetes Engine
• Familiarity with Cloud Armor and Model Armor for platform and AI protection
• Understanding of MCP and A2A concepts and how they integrate with LLM services
