About the Role
At Burberry, creativity opens spaces. We unlock the power of imagination to push boundaries and open new possibilities for our people, customers, and communities. As a purposeful, values-driven brand, we are committed to sustainable luxury, driving industry change, and championing our communities.

The Digital Engineer is a permanent, squad-embedded role responsible for translating user stories and technical specifications into well-tested, production-ready software. You will design, develop, test, deploy, and operate products that power Burberry.com and the wider omnichannel customer experience.

Engineers are the executional backbone of Burberry's Digital squads, expected to bring strong technical craft, a quality-first mindset, and the judgement to challenge approaches, estimates, and designs where appropriate. Operating within a DevOps model, you will take an active role in site reliability, incident response, and platform stability alongside your build responsibilities.

You will collaborate closely with the Engineering Manager, Delivery Lead, Solution Architects, and Testers to contribute to a high-performing squad that owns its product end-to-end. This recruitment is for 3 Engineers covering Commerce, Content, and Fulfilment.

Please note this role requires presence in our Central London office four days a week.
