This is a remote position.
Who are you?
You are a smart and talented individual who knows how to work hard whilst still maintaining a fun and friendly attitude. You enjoy working within a team where there is a culture of learning and mutual respect. An environment where you can bring new ideas to the table and have them heard.
You are a good communicator and enjoy speaking to people at all levels. Be that via email, on the phone or simply having a chat about your ideas over a cup of tea and a biscuit.
You are a creative problem solver who is quick to pick things up and are keen to learn new skills. You are never hesitant to look in to and learn new technologies
You have a real passion for programming and software development, but you do not want to just be a code-cutter working from a specification. You want to be a part of the whole software development lifecycle making positive contributions to the project you are working on at all levels.
On a technical level you yearn to work with cutting edge technologies. You are a have an excellent understanding of Java (specifically the Struts framework) and you are comfortable creating user interfaces which communicate with databases and SOA implementations. You have experience in creating and using web services and have a good grasp of XML based technologies. Moving on to the database side of life you have used JDBC and hibernate. You are not purely a Java developer though. You are also familiar with database design techniques such as normalisation. You are familiar with SQL and preferably TSQL. To reinforce your experience in all these areas you would like to showcase some of the work you are most proud of to us in your interview.
You don’t just want to have a “job” to pay the bills. You want to be part of a team who constantly bounce ideas off each other each other and encourage each other’s professional development. A team who socialise together and are friends rather than simply colleagues.
