Why Tech at M&S
Leading the transformation of an industry. The continuous pursuit of new information, resourcefulness and invention. Thousands, if not millions of people benefiting from your product-led ideas, every day. That’s why you join M&S Tech. Here, you’ll be proud of your projects, enhance your understanding of new technologies, and shape the future of a new, digitally prevailing brand of retail. Progress isn’t in the pipeline, it’s already happening. And we’re as determined to advance technology through M&S, as we are to advance M&S through technology. Want to help us?

- Own complex tasks in the backlog and deliver them routinely with no significant issues
- Develop/improve M&S standard frameworks and policies, ensuring that they are understood and adopted
- Support other engineers to produce clean, quality code through code reviews and pair programming
- Drive DevOps practices to automate the Product development life cycle
- Drive solution through experimentation and innovation as a culture
- Support the technical platform out of hours as a member of the support rota

- Coach, mentor and develop by providing the knowledge and assets to less experienced engineers
- Assist with recruitment and new starter on-boarding activities
- Help lead initiatives to take M&S Software Engineering to the next level by challenging the status quo
