Senior🎓
Top SchoolSteph Egan is a Principal Software Engineer with 11 years' experience improving delivery and collaboration for large-scale products, currently leading Delivery Engineering efforts across BBC iPlayer and Sounds. She combines hands-on engineering (Java, Python, JavaScript, PHP, SQL, Adobe Flex) with a talent for translating team needs into practical platform solutions that speed up engineering workflows. Having completed a Computer Science degree with industrial experience at The University of Manchester, she brings both academic breadth — including NLP project work — and real-world product development from roles at Magma Digital and PDP. Known for advocating knowledge sharing and enabling teams rather than dictating architectures, she focuses on small, user-centred improvements that cumulatively transform how organisations ship software. An engineer who cares deeply about improving people's lives through software, she blends technical depth with collaborative leadership across diverse teams.
