Software Developer, Enterprise Applications (27263)

Looking for a new start after redundancy? Craving stability in your career as a software developer? This established, profitable company is bucking the trend in the current jobs market and looking to expand. They seek to hire a Software Developer to join one of their Enterprise product teams. Their products are used by organisations / businesses across Europe in the energy commodities sector and are trusted due to their sector experience and reliable software.

The team works collaboratively, listening to each other and following robust software engineering principles to make sure they deliver well-tested software (writing patches because they got something wrong and delivered too fast is not an approach they do). They want people who naturally align with this approach and think first about the product and features to be developed. In return, the company looks to support careers, providing job stability and long-term prospects where you can flourish.

Interested? Please send your CV detailing:

• Academic background: expectation is that you have a degree in computer science, engineering or similar from a top ranked university.
• Demonstrable software development experience: write about the Enterprise software application projects you have worked on (we are more interested in projects where you have built with a team major features for a product, rather than added a small tweak to a large monolithic codebase).
• Extensive experience with C#.NET: this is the main language used by the company and ideally you will have experience with this language on your projects (including MVC, RESTful Web APIs, SQL Server, jQuery). However, if you only have exposure and use of C#.NET on small projects, with additional extensive experience using modern C++ including libraries, your details will be considered (note, you will be expected to pick up C#.NET if offered the role). Any experience with cloud technologies, React or Python would be beneficial.
• Show us you have a good appreciation of agile software development which could include eXtreme Programming, TDD, Pair Programming and SOLID.

Offices are based in central Cambridge and there’s bonus points for your application if you live in Cambridge or close to Cambridge (if you’re open to relocating, please indicate this as well as any ties to the city / area). Regular hybrid working options are possible although it is still expected that you can come to the office when required.

No company sponsorship is available. Similarly, anyone on time restricted visas will not be considered – the company wants people to grow their careers with them and not stay for a short term only.

On offer is a competitive salary and benefits package, interesting work within a team of likeminded people, and long term career stability within the software sector.

Keywords: C#.NET, agile, TDD / SOLID, Career Stability, Central Cambridge, Hybrid, Software Engineering
