Job Description

About Us

We're an innovative tech consultancy - a team of problem solvers. Since 1993 we've been finding better ways to solve complex technology problems for some of the world's leading organisations and delivered solutions that millions of people use every day.

We bring together experts from diverse backgrounds and experiences in a collaborative and open culture to deliver outstanding outcomes for our clients, and a stimulating and rewarding environment for our people.

Our clients tell us that our people are the best they've worked with - not only because of their professional ability, but also their behaviour and attitude. As part of the BJSS Software Engineering team, you'll develop all these skills, and hone them delivering real engagements for a variety of clients.

About the Role

We love to experiment with the latest tools, technologies and techniques to improve how we deliver our solutions and as a software engineer you can expect to be involved in:

  • Engineering software solutions - working with prototypes and proof of concepts and developing fully functioning applications based on frameworks such as .Net and Spring/Spring Boot, and using languages including Java, Scala, JavaScript, Python, C# and Go.
  • Producing rich front-end UI and efficient services with technologies like React, Angular and Vue.
  • The automation of environmental and application deployment, scaling, and management using Kubernetes, Terraform, both in the cloud (AWS, Azure or GCP) or on-premise.

About You

  • You're an engineer at heart and enjoy the challenge of building complex software solutions
  • You want to work across a range of tech environments. Your priorities will be building new systems and improving stability, security and efficiency
  • You're keen to learn new technologies and languages
  • You're comfortable operating in an Agile environment with a good working knowledge in areas such as CI/CD, build pipelines, testing and architecture
  • You have a good understanding of computing fundamentals (e.g. logic, data structures, algorithms, low-level architecture, networks stack) along with strong software design skills, including OO, and knowledge of version control systems such as Git
  • You love nothing more than grabbing a pen and whiteboarding the next challenge

Some of the Perks

  • A collaborative and inspiring environment working alongside some of the best tech people in the industry
  • Hybrid working - you can vary your working location to allow you to collaborate better, feed your creativity, and take the time and space to focus when you need it
  • Training opportunities and incentives - we support professional certifications across engineering and non-engineering roles
  • Flexible benefits allowance - you can spend on additional pension contributions, healthcare, dental and more…
  • We partner with Lifeworks to offer wellbeing support to our employees
  • Life Assurance (4 x annual salary)
  • Giving back - the ability to get involved nationally and regionally with partnerships to get people from different backgrounds into tech
  • 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
  • Discounts - we have preferred rates from dozens of retail, lifestyle and utility brands
  • An industry-leading referral scheme
