ABOUT DECODED

We are Decoded. We're the pioneers of transformative digital learning. We make change possible for those committed to bettering their business by embracing technology. Our products and methodologies have been shaped through our collaboration with some of the largest and most technologically progressive organisations in the world.

We use the intelligent, ethical and creative application of technology to lay the foundations for a more productive and promising world – one with unlimited possibilities.

OVERVIEW

You will sit within the Technical Solutions function, reporting to the Head of Technical Solutions. You will be a primary architect and builder of bespoke software engineering programmes for our most ambitious clients.

You will work confidently with client Engineering Leads and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to craft solutions that elevate software capabilities across diverse tech stacks. You are a practitioner at heart—someone who loves writing clean code, exploring new languages, and demonstrating how modern tools (like AI Copilots) are reshaping the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).

As a Software Solutions Consultant, you are expected to be a polyglot programmer: maintaining competence in multiple languages while acting as a rigorous advocate for engineering best practices, from testing to deployment. You will take technical learning concepts from design through to a fully functional, code-validated pilot.

Accountabilities:

  • Software Curriculum Design: Partner with clients to design high-impact software engineering academies and upskilling journeys.
  • Technical Mastery: Maintain deep technical competence across the full SDLC and multiple programming languages.
  • Modern Engineering Practices: Champion the use of AI coding assistants (e.g., Claude) and robust testing methodologies in all learning solutions.
  • Content Engineering: Build, test, and deploy code repositories and technical challenges for client pilots.
  • Infrastructure & Tooling: Ensure the development environments for learners are seamless, modern, and robust.

SPECIFIC ROLE & RESPONSIBILITIES

Software Curriculum Design

  • Partner with client SMEs to develop bespoke designs for software engineering programmes (e.g., re-skilling into Java/C# or upskilling in Full Stack development).
  • Advise clients on modern software trends and the best route to develop engineering talent, balancing foundational theory with practical application.
  • Translate complex engineering requirements (e.g., Microservices architecture, CI/CD pipelines) into accessible, hands-on learning outcomes.

Subject Matter Expertise (SDLC & AI)

  • Be a hands-on practitioner in two or more core languages: C#, Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, or Python.
  • Act as a thought leader on the impact of AI on software development, demonstrating expertise in using AI coding assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor) to accelerate delivery; and any other major emerging trends in software development.
  • Champion best practices in software quality, including Test Driven Development (TDD), automated testing frameworks, and secure coding standards.

Content Engineering & Incubation

  • Quickly develop and deploy prototype codebases, hackathons, and technical workshops for urgent customer needs.
  • Deliver the first version ("Alpha") of technical programmes, ensuring all code examples are production-grade and pedagogically sound.
  • Support the medium-term and long-term stabilisation of software engineering programmes into resellable products.
  • Build and maintain "Gold Standard" repositories for learning exercises, ensuring they remain up-to-date with the latest language versions and library dependencies.
  • Support the handover of mature designs into the Product team for scale-up.

Infrastructure & Developer Experience

  • Work with IT Ops to configure learner environments, whether local (VS Code setups) or cloud-based (GitHub Codespaces, cloud sandboxes).
  • Support IT Ops in any occasional software development or system automation tasks that arise within their team.
  • Support the tooling requirements for your solutions, ensuring learners have access to the necessary CI/CD pipelines, container registries, or cloud platforms.
  • Troubleshoot environment issues during live pilots to ensure a smooth developer experience for learners.

BAU Support & Delivery

  • From time-to-time, deliver standard Business As Usual (BAU) software workshops and programmes when capacity requires it.
  • Act as a technical escalation point for the Product team when maintaining existing software curriculums.

Who are you?

  • You are an experienced software engineer or developer with a passion for education and mentorship.
  • You have demonstrable proficiency in at least two of the following languages: C#, Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, Python.
  • You have deep practical knowledge of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), including version control (Git), CI/CD, and testing strategies.
  • You are an expert user of AI Coding Assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot) and can demonstrate how they fit into a modern developer's workflow.
  • You understand software architecture patterns (e.g., MVC, Microservices, RESTful APIs).
  • You are comfortable advising stakeholders on technical training needs and can stand your ground on technical best practices.

Skills & Behaviours

Your performance will be measured by and driven by a mindset built on:

  • Engineering Excellence: You refuse to ship "broken" code; you care about code quality, readability, and structure.
  • Polyglot Curiosity: You are not tied to one stack; you are willing to jump between Java, C#, Typescript, Python as client needs dictate.
  • Pragmatic Problem Solving: You find the smartest, most efficient way to solve a technical challenge.
  • Collaborative Teaching: You can explain why a piece of code works, not just how to write it.

Day-to-day

Our working hours are 9 am to 5 pm, Monday to Friday (UK time). You plan your working day around the best outcomes for success, identifying and prioritising projects against business needs.

As we work with clients across different time zones, there may occasionally be times when you need to be flexible, for example, delivering a session for a US-based client might mean finishing later in the evening. When this happens, you're encouraged to adjust your hours, such as starting later that day or the next, to support a healthy work-life balance. We will endeavour to provide as much notice as is reasonably possible and discuss this with you in advance of any prolonged requirements. In these cases, you will be entitled to flexibility around working time to ensure adequate rest breaks

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
