What we are made of

We are looking for the absolute best full-stack Java Software Engineers in the industry to join our team following continuous growth and success in the UK Government and Law Enforcement sectors.  Behind great solutions there are great people: our employees. We pride ourselves on being able to solve some of our customers’ most complex problems.  Our people are what differentiate us, they are ingenious, innovative and dedicated. We have a mix of generalists and specialists and recognise that this diversity contributes to our success. In general, we work in teams. We recognise the benefits of forming teams from a mix of disciplines, which allows us to come up with balanced, high quality solutions.

We work hard and often go the extra mile, but we recognise people’s efforts and that everyone has a life outside of work. We encourage people to speak up if they want to rotate to a new project in support of career development, or even just to face a new challenge.  Our breadth across the UK Government and Law Enforcement sectors provides diverse opportunities for our people to develop their careers in new areas of expertise or with new clients.

We know the leading developers in the industry command a top-draw salary and our package is competitive.

What you will do for us

We want people who can’t just code, but know how to deliver solutions following best practise from within the industry and love the hands-on role. Java is at the heart of what we do for our clients in this space – so you’ll have plenty of experience across related technologies and a proactive and driven manner to ensure you continue to be at the fore front of our technical experience and at the very top of your game.

You won’t be surprised with the technology that we currently use, it includes Java, React, PostGres, Kafka, ElasticSearch, AWS, Ansible, REST, Docker, API Gateways, JavaScript, Mongo. You’ll seamlessly fit into our enterprise delivery teams, ensure we deliver in an agile and effective way and bring your experience to ensure our pipelines are strong, our NFRs are met and we deliver high quality software that you will be proud of.

How we will support you

  • Coaching and supportive environment
  • Opportunities to lead teams for those who want to, but it’s not mandatory.  If you are happy with your headphones on and head down that’s fine too
  • Work-life balance is important; you’ll get up to 30 days holiday a year via our flexible benefits package
  • You can work around core hours with flexible and part-time working
  • Don’t know a particular technology? Your learning and development is key to your future career. You’ll have a career manager and get involved with innovation days, so you can develop your career aspirations
  • You’ll be part of a bonus scheme
  • Private medical and dental insurance for when you need it
  • You are welcome to join any/all of our Diversity and Support groups.  These groups cover everything from gender diversity to mental health and wellbeing

What you will learn

  • We will help you keep up to date with the latest cutting-edge tools and new technologies, although in some cases you’ll be the one helping us!
  • Want to try a new field or technology? You will have access to hundreds of projects that are on-going within UK Government. We actively support role rotations, so you can continue to learn and develop your career on new projects

If this sounds like you, it’s time to get in touch.
