As a team, we love to...

• Expand our skills in building highly scalable solutions while influencing others and raising the bar on the overall level of excellence within the team.
• Work in an environment where elegant, clean, maintainable code is favoured over short term hacks.
• Share our knowledge with each other and learn new things.
• Take advantage of our amazing travel discounts and tick some destinations off our bucket lists!

We’ll take your career on a journey that’s flexible and right for you, whilst recognising and rewarding your achievements...

• Competitive salaries and many growth opportunities within the company.
• You will get the opportunity to serve as a domain expert in multi-functional feature delivery.
• Option to attend conferences globally and enrich the technology skills you are passionate about.
• A conversation with your Manager around flexible working and what is right for you is encouraged from day one.
