Lead Developer

We are looking for passionate developers & engineers who care about software excellence. We want people who are aware of latest trends and know how to adopt the most appropriate technology.

 

We're looking for people who are strong advocates for the best engineering practices and love learning new skills. Our current positions require significant experience and the ability to shape a new client engagement, coach other team members, provide technical leadership and be comfortable leading a development team on client site - but our flat organisational structure means you'll be someone who is unconcerned with titles and hierarchy.

 

What really excites you is problem solving and delivering innovative technology that carries real business value. There are opportunities to make an impact beyond your day-day project too - our consultants regularly speak at conferences, get published and provide thought leadership as experts in software delivery.
