Job Description

Do you love to code? Want to accelerate your career by working on Rotork’s most transformational programme? This is your chance to step into a high‑impact engineering role and help shape the next generation of our global configuration and data systems.

Join the DRIVE programme, work on CERES, one of Rotork’s most strategically important tools, and gain hands‑on experience with modern engineering practices that will strengthen your technical career for years to come.

Why This Role Is Exciting

This secondment isn’t just covering capacity - it’s a genuine opportunity to:

Build and enhance a mission-critical application used across Engineering, Product Management, Operations, Sales, and Manufacturing

Work with modern technologies (TypeScript, Node.js, React, Next.js, SQL Server)

Influence the systems that underpin Rotork’s business transformation

Collaborate with expert engineers and functional teams across the globe

Develop new processes, standards, and governance within the DRIVE programme

Gain experience in enterprise-scale change across D365 (CE \& FO)

You'll step into an environment where your work directly shapes how the business configures products, quotes orders, builds actuators, and delivers customer value.

About CERES - The Tool You’ll Help Develop

CERES is Rotork’s product configuration engine of the future. Built in-house by Engineering Services, it simplifies, accelerates, and standardises the creation of product configurator models used in e-Con.

CERES matters because it:

Sits above e‑Con as a smarter, more intuitive interface

Translates business rules into e-Con model logic

Ensures configurator accuracy for quoting, ordering, and manufacturing

Holds product metadata essential for pricing, clauses, lead times, and configurator outputs

Will soon push standardised models directly into D365 FO and CE

Tech Stack You’ll Work With

TypeScript + Node.js (backend services)

React + Next.js (UI and rendering)

WebPack (bundling)

SQL Server (data \& metadata)

If you want to sharpen or expand your full‑stack engineering skills, CERES is the perfect project.

Strengthen customer service by providing accurate, joined-up, real-time information

Working inside DRIVE gives you visibility and influence across multiple departments, systems, and future global operating processes.

Qualifications

We’d love to hear from you if you have:

Programming experience with one or more languages (TypeScript, Node.js/JSON, React)

Solid SQL Server development skills

Understanding table design, SPs, views, optimisation

Familiarity with cloud technologies and Agile working

Ability to work collaboratively through the full software lifecycle

Strong problem-solving ability \& clear communication

You’ll partner with engineers, functional SMEs, and DRIVE teams

What You’ll Gain

Experience building and maintaining enterprise-grade tooling

Exposure to D365 CE, FO, and the end-to-end configuration/quotation process

Hands-on involvement in Rotork’s biggest global programme

Mentoring and support from experienced engineers and functional experts

A standout achievement for your development plan and future career progression
