• Write and maintain automated tests (unit and integration) and support QA in defining test approaches
• Work closely with front-end engineers, QA and product teams within an agile delivery model
• Participate in code review, helping to raise and maintain engineering standards across the team
• Identify and address performance bottlenecks, reliability risks and technical debt proactively

Required Skills

• Strong Java 11+ - production experience on modern versions
• Solid relational database experience with MySQL and/or PostgreSQL
• Experience building and consuming RESTful APIs (JAX-RS, Dropwizard, Spring Boot or similar)
• Experience working on event-driven systems (SQS, Kinesis, SNS, Kafka or similar)
• Familiarity with AWS services including EC2, RDS, S3, SQS and DynamoDB
• Sound understanding of software design patterns and when to apply them
• Strong automated testing skills - unit and integration - and the ability to design meaningful test cases
• Comfortable working in an agile development team with collaborative delivery practices
• Scala or experience with functional programming paradigms
• Experience with NoSQL data stores
• Infrastructure as code using Terraform or Ansible
• Docker and containerised workloads
• Experience delivering complex features with zero downtime in production systems
• Background in streaming, media or broadcast technology

We’re looking for someone who is:

• communicative to leave no-one in the dark and to work with your team successfully
• reliable so we know that we can call on you to meet deadlines
• passionate about the latest technologies and standards
• proactive to suggest improvements, identify and fix potential issues
