We pride ourselves in working with mature Agile methodologies and make use of the latest versions of technology. Our teams are structured in such a way that gives every employee the opportunity to learn new skills, work on various projects over time and see the results of your efforts in the online consumer marketplace. Joining the Digital Engineering function would see you work as part of a cross-functional, product style team, generally consisting of a Business Analyst, Scrum Master / Project Manager, Solution Architect, Lead Developers (FE and BE), Developers, and Testers (Manual and Automated).

Act as an interface between the development and third party infrastructure teams to analyse, optimise and help with issue triage (at a high level.) To be considered for the role, candidates must have commercial experience with either HTML/JavaScript or Java experience in full software development life-cycle with strong logical/problem solving skills.

and should demonstrate experience of writing technical documentation.
The candidate we are seeking will have an excellent technical background in building applications for the web preferably with AEM or similar CMS.
Experience in Java, Spring, CSS, HTML and JavaScript is also desirable. On top of a competitive salary, you can expect a whole load of perks:
