About the role
Passionate about building great software and excited by what AI can bring to modern engineering? If so, we'd love to hear from you! Haven is looking for a Senior Engineer to join our talented Technology team, playing a pivotal role in shaping how we design, build and evolve the digital products behind memorable holidays for millions of guests.
As a Senior Engineer, you’ll be a “go to” person within your squad, bringing deep technical expertise to both hands-on delivery and the wider engineering approach. You’ll define how features get built, drive them through to completion, and help others grow along the way. Around 80% of your time will be hands-on engineering, with the remainder spent guiding, mentoring and shaping technical direction.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an engineer who’s excited by the current AI-driven shift in software development, keen to embed AI capabilities across the engineering lifecycle, and eager to help evolve how a modern team plans, designs, builds and validates software.
Your Opportunity
What we’d like you to bring
Why Haven?
Haven is the UK's leading holiday operator, welcoming around 4 million guests every year to our 38 parks and 3 exclusive owners-only sites. From Scotland to Cornwall, Norfolk to Wales, our parks are dotted along some of the most breath-taking parts of the great British coastline.
A career here is more than just a job. We're one great team of up to 12,500 during peak season, united by a passion for creating experiences and memories that last a lifetime — for guests, owners and each other. It's what we call our Breath of Fresh Air culture: valuing and supporting every team member to be their authentic self and putting people at the heart of every decision we make.
This role is remote-first. You'll be based from home most of the time, with occasional visits to our Hemel Hempstead head office or Haven parks — typically around three days on Park per quarter — for team collaboration, workshops and external events.
