Software Engineering Professional

Why this job matters

Working in this role, you will play a critical part in the digital transformation of BT’s contracting process. BT is fundamentally modernising its management of contracts by implementing a cutting-edge SaaS CLM tool, moving away from fragmented, manual, and legacy processes.  In BT Digital, we are establishing a Contract Lifecycle Management Centre of Excellence (CoE), starting with BT Business and then expanding across the wider BT Group. This CoE will take a software engineering-led approach to business process configuration and optimisation, harnessing advanced Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) capabilities. Our goal goes beyond simple configuration—we aim to build intelligent contract systems that drive deeper business insights and accelerate commercial decision-making. 

What you'll be doing

1. • Work with colleagues across the CLM program to design and develop configuration solutions within the SaaS CLM platform (e.g., workflow definitions, user interfaces, and rule sets).
   • Be part of a team responsible for translating complex legal and commercial requirements into accurate and robust platform logic and document generation templates.
   • Configure and optimise the platform's AI/ML features for accurate data extraction, obligation management, and auto-redlining/playbook enforcement.
   • Be part of a team responsible for the development of integration tooling and API orchestration that ensures seamless, reliable data synchronisation between the CLM platform and core enterprise systems (e.g., CRM, ERP).
   • Design and execute comprehensive testing strategies for all configurations to ensure high reliability and compliance before deployment.
   • Ensure configurations are modular, scalable, and maintain good platform governance and change management practices.
   • Produce clear technical documentation for the configurations, customisations, and deployment pipelines we develop.
   • Support our agile methods and ambition to continually improve our CLM capabilities with enthusiasm.
   • Contributing to our culture and team’s wellbeing.

Skills

1. • Programming / scripting experience applied within the context of configuring a major enterprise SaaS platform (e.g., CLM, Salesforce, ServiceNow).
   • Have an understanding of business process modelling and a willingness to grow and develop skills in complex platform workflow/rules engine configuration.
   • Understanding of CI/CD pipelines as applied to platform configuration, and an understanding of REST/SOAP APIs for data integration.
   • Experience of identifying and automating manual tasks using the native capabilities of a SaaS platform or related scripting technologies (e.g., Python/JavaScript).
   • Experience of ensuring configuration quality and system reliability through structured testing and monitoring.
   • Practical exposure to configuring AI/ML features within an enterprise application (e.g., training classifiers, defining data extraction rules, setting up clause libraries).
   • You are organised and like to get things done. The ability to adapt, take risks and embrace change will be a necessity.
   • You like working with people and finding solutions together across technical and non-technical teams (Legal, Commercial, etc.).
   • Have an understanding of agile methodologies/frameworks.
   • Good communication skills, comfortable with presenting to team members and other wider teams.
