££70,000-£80,000 GBP

Location: United Kingdom (Greater London) Type: Permanent

Lead Software Developer

 

If you are a Lead Software Developer hoping to sharpen their skills in a highly-technical environment or a Senior Engineer hoping to take the jump to lead, one of the leading British brands and a pioneer in CyberSec is hiring.

 

It’s an opportunity to act as a player coach- gaining or building on previous leadership experience while staying hands on.

 

As a role the Lead Software Developer position lends itself to someone that wants to lead from the front- a technologist that wants the accountability and softer skill development of a lead role without sacrificing technical skills.

 

The person-

 

  • We’re searching for someone that either has broad technical exposure (.Net/Java/Python) or a specialism in backend language and a willingness to learn more technologies.
  • You’ll have experience either managing/leading teams or mentoring colleagues with an ambition to move into more leadership type roles.
  • You’re approachable, eager to teach and willing to learn- certifications demonstrating investment into your skills will show the team you are someone to invest in.
  • 6+ Years experience developing software, but we are flexible.

 

The tech stack-

 

The tech stack is broad and you are not expected to have everything. The more you have is a plus but what you don’t have is a challenge- you’ll have opportunity to plug gaps you didn’t know you had via learning and development.

 

The technogies at the Lead Software Developer’s disposal are:

 

  • Java, .Net or Python
  • Systems, e.g. Git
  • CI/CD tools, such as Bamboo, Jenkins, Gitlab etc in order to streamline delivery of new features and fixes
  • Automation Testing frameworks and tools (Selenium, Gherkin, Cucumber)
  • Static code analysis tools e.g. SonarQube
  • Team working inside an agile environment e.g. Scrum, Lean, Kanban
  • Define and enforce coding standards, code reviews and development ways of working
  • Common software design patterns
  • Able to organise and plan work for development teams
  • Passionate about developing and mentoring mid - junior engineers promoting continuous improvement
  • Excellent client facing skills

 

Other fun bits

 

Being a lead role, you will find yourself moving into an empowering position where you will:

 

  • Lead on the design/build of POC for some disruptive products.
  • Define coding standards for the team and contribute to the teams culture by establishing ways of working.
  • Contribute to the career and development of juior-mid engineers.
  • Work alongside some of the UK’s most prominent businesses shaping their approach to technology.

 

Salary and package.

 

This role comes with a strong package that includes but is not limited to:

 

  • Salary ranging between £70,000-£80,000 per annum
  • A great pension (9% pension)
  • Healthcare
  • Extensive learning and development
  • Hybrid working.
