• Proven track record of the effective use of CI/CD pipelines, software version control, database administration and containerisation.
• Strong communication skills and a demonstrated capability to work across technical fields.
• Knowledge of nuclear engineering, physics, reactor simulation, nuclear data processing or modelling of nuclear systems would be an advantage.
• Strong expertise with Python and Django, FastAPI and/or Django Rest Framework.
• Good knowledge of relational database management and SQL.
• Experience with Linux-based Operating Systems.
• Familiarity with cloud environments and containerisation (Docker/Kubernetes).
• Experience with version control systems and associated platforms (git, GitLab, GitHub).
