Why a CV for this job?

94% of employers say their filters drop qualified candidates whose CV does not match the ad's exact criteria (Harvard Business School, 2021).

  • They see what they asked for, first. Your experience that matches the ad leads, in the ad's own words, so someone skimming finds it in seconds.
  • It gets past the software. Many larger employers use software that ranks CVs by how closely they match the ad, often before anyone reads them.
  • In the language of the ad. An ad written in Spanish gets a CV in Spanish, even when yours is in Portuguese.
  • Your facts, nothing invented. Your own experience, reordered and reworded. What the ad wants and your CV does not show is listed for you to add, only if it is true. You check it before you send it.

Lead Agentic Software Engineer

This is a great opportunity to work at the frontier of AI-augmented software delivery, on challenging technical problems from a strong position of influence.

At Scott Logic, we already have a reputation for world-class software engineering. Our clients are some of the world’s leading organisations and have long trusted us to build reliable, high-performance, business-critical solutions. They now expect us to help them unlock the productivity benefits of agentic AI development – how to best adopt the tools, but also crucially ensuring they have the right foundations and guardrails in place and supporting the wider shift in day-to-day workflows.

You will typically be leading a small, tight-knit multidisciplinary team, working with our clients to solve tough software problems, as well as having a real impact on how they evolve their development practices. You’ll foster stakeholder relationships and advise on key technology and software delivery decisions. There's also plenty of opportunity to contribute more widely across Scott Logic, collaborating and sharing knowledge with colleagues as we collectively learn and adapt, and helping to shape upcoming projects.
