At CGI, we partner with government agencies to modernise critical platforms that protect public health and industry standards. Working with our UK Government client, we are transforming the technology that underpins the regulation of key veterinary medicine imports and exports across the UK and Northern Ireland. As a TypeScript Software Engineer, you will play a key role in stabilising and enhancing a key client platform, resolving performance and quality challenges as we prepare for go-live. This is an opportunity to contribute to a high-impact recovery programme, strengthen a cloud-native AWS solution and help deliver a resilient, future-ready service that supports national regulatory operations.

CGI was recognised in the Sunday Times Best Places to Work List 2025 and has been named a UK ‘Best Employer’ by the Financial Times. We offer a competitive salary, excellent pension, private healthcare, plus a share scheme (3.5% + 3.5% matching) which makes you a CGI Partner not just an employee. We are committed to inclusivity, building a genuinely diverse community of tech talent and inspiring everyone to pursue careers in our sector, including our Armed Forces, and are proud to hold a Gold Award in recognition of our support of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant. Join us and you’ll be part of an open, friendly community of experts. We’ll train and support you in taking your career wherever you want it to go.

Due to the nature of the programme, you may be required to undergo UK Security Clearance. This is a hybrid role with some working at our office in Bristol as required.

In this role, you will join a multidisciplinary team focused on recovering and strengthening a complex AWS-hosted platform. You will analyse and resolve performance and quality issues, enhance application stability and contribute to delivering a secure, scalable solution ready for go-live. Working in a collaborative Agile environment, you will take ownership of features and improvements across the full development lifecycle, from design through to deployment and optimisation.

You will help embed engineering best practice, improve infrastructure automation using Terraform and ensure robust integration with PostgreSQL and cloud-native services. Beyond this, you will contribute to Phase 2 enhancements, helping shape the long-term evolution of the platform.

Key responsibilities:

• Develop & Enhance – Build and improve services using advanced TypeScript.

• Stabilise & Optimise – Diagnose and resolve performance and quality issues.

• Design & Deploy – Work within AWS environments using Terraform for infrastructure automation.

• Advanced proficiency in TypeScript.

• Strong experience with AWS (Amazon Web Services).

• Proven experience using Terraform for Infrastructure as Code.

• Experience working with SQL databases, ideally PostgreSQL.
