London, Greater London, United Kingdom KINGS COLLEGE LONDON Full time

About us

King's Digital is a truly collaborative team. We partner with academics and professional services staff across the university and with our external partners to design, develop, and deliver a wide range of educational programmes in line with King's Education Strategy. Together, we develop online master's degrees, short courses, bespoke executive education courses, and increasingly, stackable micro-credentials.

You will be joining us at an exciting time as we seek to realise our strategic ambition of being the UK leader in continuing education, specifically in the areas of learning design, development, consultancy, and partnerships.

We are a dynamic team with ambitious growth targets in a priority area of development for King's. We proudly foster a supportive culture and community that prioritises both individual and collective wellbeing. We actively work to protect and improve the wellbeing of all staff; be it physical, mental, or social, and recognise this as central to our work and success.

King's offers a wide variety of support to employees, including flexible working arrangements, paid maternity/shared parental leave, menopausal support, an active wellbeing programme, training and development opportunities, and much more. All of our staff benefit from a generous pension contribution as well.

The role is primarily based at King's Strand Campus, though you may be required to travel to other campuses on occasion. As part of King's trial of hybrid working, all team members can work remotely for part of the week if they wish.

About the role

The King's Digital web development team works primarily on our learning platform, including our modular Design System for online programmes and courses in Moodle. The system builds on the existing infrastructure of the platform and is composed of various services, which this role will be supporting. You will also have the chance to write a new microservice from scratch and ensure that the existing elements work seamlessly together to support the frontend development team and content editors who use these systems to build online courses and course content.

Working in collaboration with other team members, you will focus on the backend development of our learning technologies, ensuring robust, scalable, and secure systems. Following high standard design patterns and principles, you will write clear, declarative code that is maintainable and uses state of the art technology.

With excellent technical and communication skills, you will support our team to build the best possible e-learning product for our students. The team is highly collaborative and thrives on this and the desire of each team member to share skills and keep pushing their own practice.

This is a full time role and you will be offered an indefinite contract

About you

To be successful in this role, we are looking for candidates to have the following skills and experience:

Essential criteria

1. Expertise with backend programming languages (e.g., Kotlin, Python, ).

2. Proven experience of successful collaboration to achieve successful outcomes.

3. Experience with frameworks such as Laravel, Django, or Express.

4. Proficiency in working with SQL and NoSQL databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB).

5. Experience of writing and deploying code efficiently using distributed version control systems (e.g.Git)

6. Ability to write clear documentation and communicate technical information to non-technical stakeholders.

7. Understanding of security standards and testing.

8. Proven commitment to diversity and inclusion.

Desirable criteria

1. Knowledge and experience of the scrum framework

2. An interest in online and technology-enhanced education.

3. Experience with large-scale open-source systems such as Moodle.
