We are looking to grow our internal development team to provide RAM with the agility to deliver new products and services and fuel its next wave of growth. We have recently migrated from a legacy hosting provider and static infrastructure to a scalable AWS environment, so we are looking for technical and creative full‑stack developers to join our team. We have a strong pipeline of new products and enhancements spanning high‑volume data processing of our IoT devices, reverse geocoding and mapping on our tracking portal, APIs, connected cameras, driver assist and mobile apps backed by software engineering best practices, design, and performance.

• At least 1‑year commercial development experience

• Docker
• API development, Web Sockets/Node JS
• App/Web wireframing and UI/UX
• Working on AWS cloud hosted infrastructure
• CI/CD pipelines
• Experience with high‑volume Kinesis data stream processing and DynamoDB

• Customer experience focused
• Problem‑solving technologists
• Professional and reliable self‑starters
• Excellent communication skills, ideally experience working with 3rd‑party suppliers

We have a relaxed dress code, so feel free to dress comfortably when coming for an interview. There is no need to wear a suit.

• 2‑page CV (max)
• A cover letter (including current salary, your GitHub or portfolio and your favourite personal project)
