Role: Software Engineer

Location: Hybrid, one day a week in Sheffield

Salary: Up to £50k

Are you the type of developer who loves having your autonomy and ownership over projects? Are you the type of developer who enjoys working in a collaborative environment with people you can learn from? Are you the type of developer who loves working on cutting-edge technology?

If you like working in excitable, fast-moving start-ups where the tech and culture are amazing. There is a clear vison from the business and the career path is open for you.

Then there are roles with companies like the one we are recruiting for. An established, profitable young business who have struck a goldmine of an idea, and already has customers queuing up to sign on the dotted line.

They have developed a data-led product that is going to revolutionise their sector, and the orders are coming in thick and fast from major global players who they’ve worked with for years.

You’ll be joining a new data science team & software development team that is likely to grow further over the next 12 months.

As a Software Engineer, you will be joining a dynamic development team to contribute to the evolution of WebApp and Data Platforms. This role is designed for a passionate individual eager to develop innovative features, resolve technical issues, and engage in the continuous improvement of software engineering processes. Your role will encompass the full software development lifecycle, including coding, testing, deploying, and monitoring, with a focus on delivering high-quality software solutions.

Things you’ll need to bring to the table:

  • 3 years+ of experience in software development

  • Proficiency in at least one: Python, Java, Springboot with a testing framework

  • Strong knowledge of web development technologies (e.g., HTML, CSS, Vue.js, Pinia)

  • Experience with Cloud Platform, preferably Azure

  • Good understanding of software architecture and design principles

  • Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills

  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a team

  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills

  • Experience with Agile development methodologies

    The role would be based mainly from home with travel to Sheffield once a week, so ideally you will drive.

    If this sounds like something worth discussing further, apply or get in touch with us at Rebel Recruiters!

    The company are likely to grow further, so if you are an experienced data scientist who would prefer a more senior role, please apply anyway, stating your salary expectations.

    All UK-based applicants will be given a guaranteed reply.

    We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background
