About The Role
Full Stack Software Engineer | Hybrid | Permanent | Starting from £63,000
We’re free thinkers. We’re innovators. We’re #ConsultantsWhoCode.
We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced FullStack Software Engineer with strong React Native mobile development experience to join our growing Software Engineering team at here at EDF.
The Opportunity
As a FullStack Engineer with a mobilefirst focus, you’ll play a key role in building the apps and platforms that support our asset management teams — the people powering the electric vehicles, batteries, and lowcarbon technologies supporting the UK’s journey to Net Zero.
You’ll work across the full stack, with around 60–70% of your time focused on React Native mobile development and the rest contributing to backend services, AWS infrastructure, testing, and delivery tooling.
As part of our modern engineering culture, you’ll also use AIenabled engineering tools to improve code quality, testing, documentation, observability, and developer experience. We’re growing our AI capability across the entire SDLC — from requirements refinement to code generation, test automation, and release processes — and you’ll help shape how we adopt these tools responsibly and effectively.
We operate using scaled Agile practices, including PI Planning, crossteam collaboration, and shared engineering standards.
This hybrid role gives you flexibility to work from home with monthly (or more frequent if you prefer) visits to London, Hove, or Exeter.
Pay, Benefits & Culture
Alongside a starting salary from £63,000, you’ll receive:
Up to 5% annual bonus
A marketleading pension scheme
Customisable benefits including electric vehicle leasing, gym discounts, life assurance, healthcare cash plan, tech vouchers, product discounts and more
Everyone is welcome at EDF.
We’re committed to building a workforce that reflects gender balance, social mobility, ethnic diversity, LGBTQ+ inclusion, and disability confidence. Adjustments and support are available throughout the recruitment process.
