Engineering Lead @The Dock
About The Dock
The Dock is Accenture's flagship R&D and Global Innovation Center, based in Dublin's Grand Canal Dock. As an incubation hub for the next generation of AI and GenAI agentic solutions, we bring together a global community of business strategists, designers, engineers, data scientists, and entrepreneurs to solve some of the world's hardest problems and build products and services that help industries adapt to rapid change.
Our teams operate across the full innovation spectrum — from early exploration through to real-world deployment — working in tight, multidisciplinary pods that turn ideas into things clients can actually use.
About the Role
As an Engineering Lead, you will own and deliver engineering workstreams end‑to‑end, from early technical discovery through to implementation and handover. You will operate in an innovation‑driven environment where requirements may be incomplete and timelines constrained; the expectation is that you bring structure, make trade‑offs, and deliver working software with a clear path to deployment and ongoing support.
This is a hands‑on engineering role. Success is not just writing code, but delivering working solutions end‑to‑end. You will drive delivery by personally owning significant parts of the implementation, shaping scope and approach in collaboration with peers, and ensuring solutions can be deployed, operated, and evolved.
You will work closely with data scientists, engineers, and product partners to turn requirements into AI-enabled capabilities embedded in real products. You will stay current on AI tooling, but apply it with the judgement of an engineer, not the enthusiasm of an early adopter.That means balancing what's fast to build against what the team (or client) will have to maintain six months later.
You will also contribute to team capability through code reviews, pairing, shared patterns and standards, and practical improvements to how the team builds and ships software.
