Things you'll be working on
You will be working on a range of web applications (from bespoke MVC apps to Umbraco CMS), web services (we have a RESTful public API using OAuth 2.0 authentication, and an internal WCF/SOAP web service for inter-app comms), back-end code (integrating with third party APIs and our SQL Server databases), and our mobile app for iOS and Android, built using Ionic 3 (AngularJS).
You will contribute to product design and architecture, decision making and planning, code reviewing and coaching/mentoring.
As a team we aim to write quality, high performance code, and release new features often (several times a week). We love CI/CD (we use TFS for builds and Octopus for releases) and are investing heavily in DevOps. We practice Agile development using Scrum.
Our recent announcement with Aviva means new development projects will kick off imminently, the first of which will be integrating our service into MyAviva.
This role also represents a fantastic opportunity for career progression, as we will be dividing the team into multiple teams in the future, and team leader positions will open up.
Contracted hours are 37.5 hours per week, with scope for flexible working.
