Do you love music, storytelling and building the tools that help a software team succeed?
This organisation have helped tell some of the worlds most iconic stories. With a history spanning 24 years, 140 staff and a passion for the highest quality, they need a Senior Developer to be the architect and mechanic of their digital workshop.
This Platform Developer role is about making life easier for the company’s product team. You will focus on the behind-the-scenes plumbing and tools that let those teams work faster, safer, and with fewer headaches.
Here’s what that means:
Fixing core problems: You’ll handle tricky technical stuff (like infrastructure and systems) so the product team doesn't get slowed down.
Building APIs: the bridges that let different software talk to each other. You’ll create and manage these bridges to make sure they’re safe, reliable, and can handle lots of use.
Helping deploy software faster: You’ll improve the process of releasing new software so it’s quick, repeatable, and less error-prone.
Skills they want:
* Comfortable coding in TypeScript (and ideally other strongly structured languages).
* Experience with CI/CD (automating the build, test, and release process).
* Know your way around AWS cloud services.
* Good at building REST APIs.
* Can work with databases and SQL.
* Extra points if you’ve worked with testing automation, integrations between systems, DevOps tools (like Terraform or Ansible), or web frameworks like Next.js, .NET, and C#.
In short: this role is for someone who likes to build the foundation and toolset that lets other developers deliver products quickly and reliably, rather than building the product features directly.
What you'll be excited to work on:
* Modernising TeamCity into GitHub actions
* Improving dev productivity and quality of life
* Building a better AI pipeline - pier review/AI review - improving efficiencies and productivity with AI
* Transitioning old .NET API's to JS and Lambda (serverless)
* Building abstract provisioning tools
Tools they use:
* TypeScript
* AWS (Terraform, AWS SAM, Ansible (or similar)
* SQL
* Next.js and Vercel
* .NET and C#
The environment is high-trust, kind and considerate; working together, challenging each other and helping those around you improve every day. They have very low staff turnover with training, progression, support, flexibility and new technical challenges all the time.
