PROJECT CHALLENGES

Our client are looking for a talented Android Engineer who has a strong focus on code quality and want to build software using best practices such as TDD/BDD. You will get the chance to guide and mentor colleagues in projects and internal initiatives, while helping clients understand what they really need, then build quality systems accordingly. In terms of stack they are not wedded to any language or framework and aim to use best of breed technologies in Mobile development so keeping up with modern trends will be central to this role.

Here are some of the technologies you’ll likely use: Android, Kotlin, RxJava, Dagger, Java, Angular, JS, HTML, CSS, Cordova, Jasmine, Karma and more. They love developers that are open to doing a mix of both iOS (Swift) or Android (Kotlin), but are happy to accommodate people that only have experience with one or the other. You will also have the freedom and opportunity to get involved in other areas/technologies like Java, JavaScript and .Net/C#, React/Angular, scalable web/cloud architectures, Node and Go.

Their team includes various “thought leaders” and well respected authors who have contributed to works in Agile best practices like Scrum, Kanban, eXtreme Programming, automated testing, TDD, BDD, and DevOps (CI/CD). Their clients cover a wide range of domains like Healthcare (both NHS and private), Media, Government and also Finance, all of which you could get exposure to if you were to join their talented team. Along with having offices across Europe they are now further scaling their sites in both London and Manchester, due to huge demand for their Agile solutions.

They have a very low staff turnover compared to industry averages which they have achieved through investing in their staff and keeping them both challenged and motivated. Every employee receives an annual training budget which can be spent on conferences, courses, books and certifications, with allotted training days so that they have the time to perfect what they have learnt. The team are very passionate and regularly contribute to open source, attend/host meetups and have a culture of collaboration to solve complex challenges.
