Together, you’ll work to create a world-class development function. As a Lead Developer, you’ll be expected to apply your skills without support, to determine and use the most appropriate tools and techniques, and to guide and mentor others, sharing knowledge and experience.

At this level you’ll need knowledge of at least one of the following:
Test Driven Development (TDD)
Continuous integration
Cryptography and cryptanalysis
Mobile App Development
Secure by Design Coding.
You’ll also need knowledge of at least three of the following:
.NET (VB, C#, ASP.NET, .NET CORE)
MVC Framework
Python
JavaScript (REACT, Bootstrap Frameworks)
Database design
SQL / SQL Server
NoSQL technologies e.g., MongoDB, Hadoop, etc.
If you’re the right person for the role, you’ll bring experience of working on a range of applications across the development lifecycle plus proven leadership skills. We’re looking for a highly motivated professional with the communication skills to guide a team of software developers.
Ticked all the boxes? In return for your efforts and expertise, we can offer a competitive salary, a Civil Service pension, excellent career development, plus a role that’s like no other.
