• Work across the full software development lifecycle with a DevOps mindset
• Apply best practices including CI/CD, automated testing, and clean code principles
• Operate within an agile team, contributing to continuous improvement and technical decisions
• Ensure solutions meet security, performance, and quality standards

• Full-stack development experience
• Backend experience using Java or a similar server-side language
• Understanding of modern software engineering best practices
• Experience working in agile delivery teams
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (desirable)
• Exposure to cloud or containerised environments (beneficial, not essential)
