Job description

Your Remote Tech Recruiter is engaged with an established Tech Consultancy who are looking to recruit Senior Developers with experience building applications in Java.

They're a global organisation (operate across the US, UK, Europe and Asia), with a focus on delivering end-to-end digital transformation projects across a range of industries including Retail, Financial Services, Healthcare and Life Sciences (to name but a few).

They've got a genuinely great culture, with a commitment to DE&I, and they've been a certified 'Great Place to Work' for multiple years (consecutively I might add!). Moreover, they operate an 'employee first' mindset with tailored career development, varied company benefits and flexible working being some of the many perks of working for them.

In terms of technology, their focus is pretty wide and encompasses a range of areas including AI, DevOps, Cloud, IoT, Mobile and Big Data. They've got a strong engineering culture and utilise modern engineering practices when engaging on client projects, with an overriding focus on solving problems (rather than creating them!).

In terms of this role, they're looking to add Senior Developers to their engineering function, with a specific focus on some of their customers in the Financial Services space. The work is complex, the tech is pretty cool, and they're looking for applicants with experience of some (not necessarily all) of the following:

1. Background developing applications in Java (JDK 8, Spring Boot etc.).
2. Solid understanding of Core Java design patterns and concepts.
3. Experience with RESTful Web Services, OOP/OOD and RDBMS experience.
4. Some experience working with front end technologies (HTML5, JavaScript, Angular etc.).
5. Background using modern processes including Agile, Scrum, TDD etc.

Moreover, due to this organisation being a Consultancy, strong communication skills (i.e. the ability to talk to stakeholders about complex technical concepts) is key, as your role will be client-facing.

In return, you'll get the following:

1. Base salary ranging from £50,000 - £80,000 (depending on experience)
2. Bonus of up to 10% (performance-based)
3. Life insurance and income protection
4. Holiday allowance of 25 days (plus 8 bank holidays)
5. Enhanced maternity/paternity pay
6. Free employee Udemy account
7. Range of additional perks including 'cycle to work' schemes, expensed training and a travel loan scheme.

Finally, this company doesn't offer visa sponsorship so applicants who don't hold a valid 'Right to Work' in the UK won't be considered.
