Technical Lead - AEM

• Make your move. Make your mark

• Put your fingerprints on the future to progress your career
• Make a difference, make it meaningful

At Insignia Financial, we’re rebuilding and reimagining the digital platforms that power our business - in-house, from the ground up, and we’re looking for a Technical Lead - AEM to help make it happen.

You’ll own real architecture decisions, lead a talented team of engineers, and work hands-on with AEM Cloud, Adobe Edge Delivery Services, and a modern front-end stack (React, Java, AWS). This isn’t a “configure and hand over” role - it’s deep engineering, tight integration, and delivery of high-impact, high-performance digital experiences used by millions.

The opportunity to join our team

As Technical Lead, you’ll blend technical authority with team leadership. You’ll guide design and delivery, mentor engineers, and set the standard for how we build scalable, secure, AI-ready web platforms that power our multi-brand portfolio.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the design and delivery of scalable, high-performance websites using AEM Cloud, Adobe Edge Delivery Services, and React
• Shape and drive best-practice AEM architecture, integrations, and development approaches
• Partner with Product, UX, content, marketing, and platform teams to deliver exceptional customer experiences
• Drive integration between AEM and key marketing/technology platforms, including Adobe Analytics, Adobe Target, CDPs, personalisation tools, AWS APIs, and member portals
• Promote Core Web Vitals, accessibility, and SEO best practices across all digital assets
• Mentor and coach engineers, fostering a culture of collaboration, innovation, and high performance

What you will bring

You’re an experienced AEM leader who can set the technical direction while still being close to the code. You thrive in fast-paced, in-house delivery environments and have the skills to design, build, and scale platforms used by millions.

• Proven experience delivering complex AEM Cloud solutions (HTL, Sling Models, OSGi, Core Components, templates, workflows, integrations)
• Full-stack development skills in Java, React, JavaScript, CSS, and HTML
• Hands-on experience with Adobe’s Edge Delivery Services and composable/headless architectures
• Knowledge of AWS services such as S3, CloudFront, API Gateway, and WAF
• Familiarity with modern engineering workflows – CI/CD, test automation, GitHub Actions/Jenkins
• Strong communication skills to bridge technical and business conversations, with a collaborative, problem-solving mindset

Why Insignia Financial?

We’re building and owning the full digital experience ourselves. You’ll work with a mature, capable team on real technical challenges, including a full-scale rebuild of 10+ high-traffic websites and consolidation of multiple brand experiences.

If you want to work in a modern tech stack, with autonomy, variety, and visibility - and have the experience to back it up - this role is for you.
