Location: London / Hybrid (2 days a week in the office) 
Reporting to: Platforms Engineering Manager

The role 

As a Platform Engineer in our Cloud Foundations team, you will play a crucial role in designing, implementing and maintaining our cloud infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). You'll be responsible for ensuring the scalability, security, and reliability of our cloud environment, enabling Rightmove to deliver innovative solutions efficiently and cost-effectively. This is a team focused on setting standards rather than fighting fires, defining cloud governance, controls and guardrails so developers can deploy confidently on a secure, audited platform. You’ll work closely with database engineers and the security team, shaping cloud foundations and helping developers understand how the platform works; from Kubernetes through to core cloud concepts. The role balances building and evolving the platform with light-touch support, handling rare incidents, and focusing on making the platform more resilient for the future.

The Role: Engineering Manager (AI Enablement)
Location: London office / Hybrid (2 days per week in the office)
Reporting to: Head of Technology Operations

The Role:

Our AI Enablement team accelerates how product and engineering teams deliver value by enabling safe, effective, high‑quality adoption of AI‑native tools, practices and agentic workflows. We partner across the organisation to reduce friction, enhance developer productivity, and drive governed AI integration at scale. 

We're looking for a leader with a builder's DNA who approaches the role like a founding team member would. You're obsessed with building the best agentic operating system for product teams and proving it works by making teams wildly more efficient whilst not compromising quality. You’re a collaborator, relationship builder, and a key person of influence. 

As the Engineering Manager for this team, you will lead a small, high‑impact group that builds and operationalises internal AI capabilities, partners with teams to remove adoption friction, and ensures governed, scalable use of AI. This role will remain close to the technology and the engineers, pairing on hard problems, contributing to design and automation, and delivering the platform, services, workflows and practices that scale AI‑assisted delivery across the organisation. 

This is a highly cross‑functional role requiring strong technical fluency, exceptional communication, relationship building and influencing skills, as well a deep expertise of how AI tooling, platforms and systems deliver value in the product development lifecycle. 

Key outcomes for this role:

Delivery & Execution 

• Lead a team of engineers building and deploying highly performant, reliable AI agents and workflows for internal users. These are scalable systems handling hundreds of thousands of prompts in production. You'll ensure technical excellence, operational reliability, and high impact. You'll be hands-on: meet internal customers, read PRs, build integrations, jump into issues when needed. 
• Surface what's breaking, what's missing, and what would unlock more value. Translate technical concepts for non‑technical stakeholders and keep communication tight. 
• Anticipate and remove blockers; lead incident response and follow‑ups so lessons are embedded; continuously improve ways of working for predictability.  

Technical Stewardship  

• Ensure the team can successfully navigate the Rightmove governance, security, and reliability requirements in order to deliver fit for purpose architecture, systems and standards. Ensure design reviews consult all relevant stakeholders; champion quality, observability, performance and cost efficiency. 
• Stay close to the implementation to maintain technical credibility: pair on complex problems, contribute to design docs and automation/scripts/skills, and periodically contribute code where appropriate. 
• Shape internal AI platform patterns (e.g., AI‑assisted planning, design, generation/review, test generation and validation, documentation automation, log/metric analysis, incident assistance, SSDLC agents) and guide safe adoption across teams. 

People Leadership & Team Development 

• Rally your team through ambiguity, setbacks, and tough stakeholder asks. Push for clarity, focus, and high energy in every sprint. Drive urgency without burning people out.  
• Coach and mentor engineers who want to grow fast and build great things; run effective 1:1s, set clear growth goals, recognise achievements and address performance early and fairly. 
• Create an inclusive, psychologically safe environment; tailor leadership to individual strengths and motivations.  

Governance, Safety & Scalability 

• Partner with security, compliance, data and architecture to ensure governed, safe AI adoption; translate emerging risks and constraints into product and engineering decisions that scale.  

What you'll bring: 

• Experience leading engineering teams that build and scale end-to-end production systems. 

• Deep understanding of the current AI tooling and agentic workflow landscape and how they are being used to deliver value in the product development lifecycle. 

• Hands on experience with AI models, tools and frameworks: agent orchestration, prompt engineering, RAG pipelines, evaluation frameworks, LangChain, Codex, Claude, Gemini, observability tools and best practices. 

• A leadership style that blends high standards with empathy, fostering both speed and quality. 

• Proven ability to work closely with customers and translate business needs into technical deliverables. 

• You measure success by customer outcomes, not just features shipped.
  
  
•  Excellent communication skills across technical and non-technical audiences. 
  
  
• Strong technical problem-solving skills and ability to guide teams through ambiguous, fast-changing environments.
  

Even better if you have:

• Experience building or deploying agentic AI systems and/or AI tooling in production at scale 

The role 

We're looking for a Product Designer to join our new Consumer Platforms team. The team will work on initiatives that cut across multiple consumer teams, strengthening our foundations and improving the journeys that underpin the Rightmove experience.

• You’ll also be part of our wider XD team, a community of 30+ Product Designers, Content Designers and User Researchers. 

• Reporting to the Lead Product Designer for Consumers. 

• Hybrid – 2 days per week in the Soho, London office and 3 days from home. 
   

What you’ll be doing 

• Owning end-to-end improvements: mapping journeys, identifying friction, proposing simplified flows, testing and iterating. 

• Improving sign-in and registration flows and related account journeys, reducing friction and increasing conversion rates. 

• Supporting our Move & Home initiatives by connecting journeys across touchpoints and teams. 

• Creating and communicating solutions through user journeys, flows, wireframes, UI design and prototypes. 

• Partnering with the Product Manager to understand the roadmap and strategic priorities.

• Proactively running your own research and usability testing to validate ideas and refine designs. 

• Using analytics and qualitative insight to understand impact and continuously improve what we ship. 

• Working with engineers through delivery to ensure experiences are technically feasible, accessible, performant and consistent with our design system. 

• Contributing to design system patterns, documentation and ways of working that help teams collaborate effectively. 
   

What you’ll bring to the role 

• Experience designing responsive web products, with a portfolio that shows strong UX design, systems thinking and UI craft. 

• Ability to design clear, multi-step journeys and reduce complexity in flows. 

• Working knowledge of accessibility standards and inclusive design, and an eye for quality and consistency. 

• Comfort working within (and contributing to) a design system and using reusable components/patterns effectively. 

• Confidence using evidence to make decisions. 

• Strong communication and collaboration skills, including experience working across multiple teams and stakeholders. 

• Openness to feedback, both on your design work and personal development.
