Job description

We are looking for a Senior Software Developer to join our team.

  • Lead code reviews and promote coding standards and best practices.
  • Mentor junior developers and support team knowledge sharing.
  • Contribute to architecture and technical design decisions.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams in an Agile environment.
  • Troubleshoot complex technical issues and optimize systems for performance and scalability.

Requirements

Essential:

  • Strong experience in full-stack development (e.g., Java, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript).
  • Experience with at least one backend framework (Spring Boot, Node.js, Flask/FastAPI) and front-end frameworks (e.g., React).
  • Knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), CI/CD pipelines, and modern DevOps practices.
  • Excellent problem-solving and communication skills.
  • Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • Full, clean UK driving license and access to a vehicle.

Desirable:

  • Experience in regulated environments (e.g., health, justice, government).
  • Experience leading technical teams or initiatives.
  • Familiarity with microservices, Kubernetes, or serverless architectures.
