Front End Developer (New Team, New Project)
Fareham, Hampshire.
£25000 - £50000 + Benefits
Please note my client cannot offer VISA sponsorship for this position.
Your new company
I've been engaged by a boutique leisure business to recruit front and back end Developers to work on a re-imagination of their core back end system using .NET Core technologies. It's an award-winning company that have carved out a niche and that will be moving into the mid-size organisation in 2020. You'll be based from their head office, close to both Southampton and Portsmouth, and commutable by car or public transport from most of Hampshire.
Predominantly these are hands-on positions, but the first hires onto this project, hence the flexibility from junior to senior developer. With this in mind you must be comfortable working in a standalone role to begin with, but in the knowledge the team will grow this year offering a route to Lead Developer for the right individual.
Your new role
The existing system will stay in place but all development you work on will be looking at transforming it into a modular, high-performance platform which enables bespoke customisation for the end user. This isn't just a process of modernisation, it's looking at scalable expansion as the company target new markets and product lines. That being said they want people bought in for the long term, so you can have a genuine measurable impact here on their growth.
You'll be looked at to handle the UX/UI presence of the business. There's both client facing and customer facing ecommerce sites which require reimagining, plus the tweaks and customisation of the companywide intranet. You will be comfortable managing multiple projects as it's a constantly evolving market, so the dev resource needs to be the same.. reactionary and supportive of an Agile way of working.
What you'll need to succeed
We need someone proficient in JavaScript/HTML/CSS and with exposure to UX/UI tools and processes. More specifically Angular has been used on the front end, but future tooling and tech is somewhat open to the successful candidates as this will be to join a new team.
The wider stack is Microsoft, so understanding of C# .NET / .NET MVC / .NET Core will serve you very well, as will any work consuming API's.
We're looking for high-level responsive design across web, desktop and mobile platforms, and a confidence in speaking to users and effecting change.
What you'll get in return
The company offers great flexibility in terms of working hours and they've retained a lot of the 'family feel' perks such as paid for meals, local discounts and team outings. There's free parking there or a shuttle bus for easy access. On top of this It's a modern office space which is open plan and where cross team collaboration is the norm.
