Intelance is an independent enterprise architecture, technology and cybersecurity advisory firm. We have been appointed to lead a board-level, independent technology and data review for a large UK omnichannel retailer.
A big part of this retailer's technology is home-built. We need a hands‑on principal engineer who can get under the bonnet of that code, judge how good it really is, and explain what it means in clear terms.
Tasks
You will support an Intelance led independent technology audit.
Typical work may include:
- Review selected home-built platforms, applications and codebases.
- Assess code quality, technical debt, maintainability, documentation and engineering standards.
- Review platform architecture, APIs, integrations, services, data flows and points of failure.
- Assess DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, test automation, release management and deployment controls.
