Your work here isn’t just a job – it’s a mission. We all play a vital role in energising a greener, fairer future.

We believe that energy is a pillar for modern society. It powers our homes, fuels our industries, and enables essential services like healthcare, food production, and lighting. As a Software Engineer, you will play a crucial role in shaping the future of energy trading. You will work alongside a dynamic team, leveraging cutting-edge technologies to optimize power transactions, enhance reliability, and drive sustainability. If you are passionate about innovation, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and want to contribute to a greener energy future, we invite you to explore this exciting opportunity with us.

As Centrica Energy continues to expand, so does our team of dedicated Software Engineers. We are the driving force behind the technology that enables our business to thrive in the fast-paced, round-the-clock energy market across Europe.

As our new colleague, you will seamlessly integrate into one of our experienced development teams. From day one, you will actively participate in team activities, contributing your expertise to our mission. We understand that a successful transition is essential, so we will provide you with thorough and detailed onboarding specific to the energy trading domain and our extensive system portfolio. To ensure a smooth start, you will be paired with a dedicated buddy who will guide you through your initial period. Additionally, you will become an integral part of our development community, which boasts over 130 software developers, UX designers, algorithmic engineers, and ML ops specialists.

As a Software Engineer in our Power Trading Solutions team, you will be at the forefront of energy trading technology. Our primary technology stack includes:

  • .NET C#, powering robust backend services and APIs.

  • Web API, facilitating seamless communication between systems.

  • WPF Desktop UIs, delivering intuitive user experiences.

  • Unit testing and automated testing, ensuring reliability and quality.

  • AWS Cloud and Kubernetes, enabling scalability and flexibility.

  • MongoDB, PostgreSQL, and MSSQL, managing critical data.

  • RabbitMQ and Kafka, handling real-time messaging.

  • Humio and SeriLog, for comprehensive logging and monitoring.

  • Jenkins, Octopus Deploy, and Argo, streamlining deployment.

  • Git, Jira, and Confluence, fostering collaboration and documentation.

If you are proficient in several elements from this stack or have experience with a similar one, if you thrive as a team player, and if translating customer ideas into well-designed solutions excites you, then you are the candidate we are seeking. Your competences will be valued and used immediately.
