At Poppulo we believe that learning and innovation go hand in hand.
Our company value of “Don’t just work, Learn” is alive and well in Engineering. We provide dedicated research time, unlimited access to learning material, book clubs, regular in-house tech talks, conference attendance…the list goes on!
Poppulo is going through a transformation.
We have a unique, but time-sensitive opportunity to define and own a new market in Enterprise Internal Communications.
We are significantly investing in enhancing our Poppulo Mobile Platform to ensure it remains compelling for large customers to deliver Organisational Communications across the enterprise. Mobile is a pivotal part of our larger platform and must meet all of the requirements of a large enterprise in terms of features and functionality, but also best practises, quality, security and scalability.
You will work alongside a fun and highly motivated cross-functional team (Research, Development, Architecture, QA, PM, UX/UI), in a supportive agile culture, where flexibility allows you the best possible work-life balance.
The opportunities available with us are full-time and permanent.
The focus of this role is to:
Provide technical leadership and direction to the teams
Support and advise management in technical decision making; review options, identify alternatives, propose solutions
