Job description

What does working in software development at AO look like? Our developers are key to our success. They build our platforms and products from the ground up which shape our customer journey and make us the most trusted electrical retailer in the UK. In tech nothing stands still! We're passionate about elevating our AOers to make a positive impact with code and discovering new and innovative ways to leverage technology. We work at ‘AO Speed’ and we want you to bring your ideas to life and your technical knowledge to the front as we build and deploy applications that serve our millions of customers.

Here's What You Can Expect To Be Doing

Here at AO we’re super keen to explore new ideas while sticking to tried-and-true tech that we know works. Automated testing and TDD are at the core of our practices, and we deploy multiple applications and microservices through CI/CD pipelines within a DevOps environment. We leverage technologies like C#, .NET, and AWS as our primary tools. Additionally, we work with a range of technologies such as Terraform, Node.js, React.js, TypeScript, and DynamoDB, among others.

A Few Things About You

• You're confident working with C#, along with ASP.NET or .NET.
• You also have solid experience with React.js, TypeScript, Node.js, and modern frameworks like Next.js.
• You use a utility-first framework like Tailwind CSS to create clean, maintainable styles.
• You’ve used tools like React Testing Library, Vitest, and Playwright to write reliable, maintainable tests for front-end applications.
• You’re well-versed in software architecture and API design, and capable of delivering secure, scalable, and high-performance systems.
• You understand development frameworks, tooling, and best practices across the stack.
• You apply software principles and design patterns thoughtfully, and know how to make them work in real-world scenarios.

We’re known for helping our customers brilliantly - and it’s no different for AOers. We care about more than what’s on your CV, because together we can do extraordinary things.

Our benefits are designed to cover the moments that matter to AOers. From health and wellness to giving back - you’ll be rewarded inside and outside of work.

• Our Value Creation Plan; We've created a unique long term bonus plan for every AOer to share in our success, giving you the opportunity of an exceptional reward in return for exceptional business performance.

We want to make sure you're given the best possible chance to shine in your interview, so you may need us to do things in a slightly different way. This could be requesting a ground floor room or bringing along a sign interpreter to name just a few.

Fill in the below box if there's anything we need to know so we can adjust the process to support you.

AO is for everyone

We should all feel that we belong. That's why we are creating a welcoming and inclusive place to work.

We're proud to be different. From how we look to the way we talk to our customers, we skip to the beat of our very own drum. We know that being different together is our superpower and we celebrate it because it makes us stronger, more creative, and better at what we do.

We believe the people we employ should reflect the diversity of our customer base; that way, we can communicate in a way that recognises all backgrounds, races, ethnicities, genders, ages, religions, abilities, and sexual orientations.

And that's why we're asking these questions. Making sure our recruitment process is inclusive is a key part of what we're doing at AO to encourage diversity as an employer.

How will we use the data?

After we've collated the data, we'll look at the patterns to assess if we are inclusive at each stage. If it turns out that we aren't, then the data may help us identify where we can improve.

The data will never have any bearing on whether an application is successful or not and will not be available to hiring managers at any stage.

How do you describe your gender identity?

How do you describe your ethnic background?

How do you like to describe your sexual identity or sexual orientation?

Do you identify as a person with a disability or are you a person with accessibility needs?

How would you describe your Neurodiversity?
