About this role
Role Overview
- Deliver exceptional products and services through technology
- Help organizations accelerate value delivery and create outstanding customer experiences
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams at all stages of the software development lifecycle
- Contribute across the tech stack and work on exciting new projects
Requirements
- A passion for engineering and a desire to keep learning
- A focus on writing clear, concise code that is easy to maintain
- An ability to be pragmatic when required and avoid unnecessary “gold-plating”
- An understanding that quality is everyone’s responsibility and a strong desire to test your own code
- Comfortable working with others in pairing or mobbing scenarios
- A good communicator who shares our values of openness and respect
- A DevOps mentality – meaning that you don’t want to chuck code over the fence, and you are keen to be involved right through to delivering the code to the customer
- A desire to build up and see others succeed, rather than wanting to be the Hero
- Confidence to act as a technical authority, influencing decisions across teams and stakeholders
- Ability to balance short-term delivery with long-term technical strategy and sustainability
The must haves:
- Fundamental coding experience at least two of the following languages: Python, JavaScript, Node.js, C#, Java
- Experience working within cloud environments, specifically AWS or Azure (Or both!)
- Fundamental understanding of infrastructure-as-code with Terraform or an equivalent technology
- Experience working with CI/CD pipelines such as GitHub Actions, GitLabCI, Jenkins or Azure DevOps
- A good understanding of and experience working with agile methodologies
- Experience working in supporting a live product
- Experience adapting to different tech stacks
- Understanding of and working experience with source control, particularly Git
- Experience with database technologies of some flavour
- Experience mentoring, managing and up-skilling engineers
- Experience providing technical leadership across teams or programmes of work
- Experience shaping architectural decisions and guiding engineering best practice
- Ability to engage with senior stakeholders and translate business goals into technical outcomes
And it would be great if you have any of these:
- Experience with no-SQL technologies such as MongoDB
- Experience of building CI/CD pipelines with tools such as GitHub Actions, GitLabCI, Jenkins or Azure DevOps
These are the little bit extra, cherry-on-top skills that will help you stand out. Still give us a shout if you haven't currently got these skills though!
