City of Westminster, United Kingdom CV-Library Full time

The Opportunity

This is work of national importance. Join the Parliamentary Digital Service as a Senior Developer and what you do will make UK democracy function better, more efficiently and more transparently. And this couldn't be more vital - you'll be writing and maintaining systems that allow us to deliver better services to all Members of Parliament, and for the activities of the UK Parliament to be better scrutinised and understood by the public.

Joining a diverse and multidisciplinary team, you'll be involved in many complex issues, helping to refine the systems that Members used to vote in both the House of Commons and the House of Lords, improving the tabling systems that allow MPs to submit questions, and much more.

Using your technical experience and high-quality programming skills, you'll be ready to communicate clearly across different disciplines, with your digital colleagues, and to other stakeholders throughout Parliament. But your work won't stop there. Among your other responsibilities, you'll:

write high-quality code and develop new software or evolve existing applications to meet internal and external customer needs
peer-review code and ensure the highest standards and correct policies are followed in your work
have a proactive and considered approach to technical debt, and strive for a culture of technical longevity over short-term gains
deploy tactical decisions where necessary while keeping focused on long-term strategic goals and aiming to mitigate debt when possible
work collaboratively with colleagues across disciplines including (but not limited to) test, DevOps, delivery, design, user research and performance analysis
work with others to build a strong sense of requirements and ensure the work developed meets the needs of internal and external customers What You Need

If you can collaborate with others to review specifications and use these to design, code, test and document programs or scripts of medium to high complexity, then we want to hear from you. You should also have:

proven experience across C#, .NET Core and .NET Framework, web frameworks including MVC and Web API, SQL / SQL Server with proven experience in designing database schemas to satisfy data storage and retrieval requirements, designing and creating RESTful APIs, performing profiling of applications and writing performant code, Git, abstracting code into core libraries and creating reusable components, debugging and systems analysis, HTML5, CSS / SASS & Javascript and TypeScript, familiarity with a frontend framework such as Angular / React / Vue (Angular preferred)
the ability to design systems characterised by medium levels of risk, impact and business or technical complexity, and the skills to select appropriate design standards, methods and tools to ensure they are applied effectively
the ability to define the integration build, coordinate build activities across systems and understand how to undertake and support integration-testing activities
an understanding of users and their needs, the ability to engage in meaningful interactions with them and the skills to propose design approaches or services to meet their needs
a readiness to uphold the values of equality, diversity and inclusion
the ability to pass security clearance, backed by the right to work in the UKAbout The Team

You'll be working within the Software Development function, in the Product Directorate within the Parliamentary Digital Service. The Digital Service is a joint department of both Houses of Parliament, providing technology and services to all Parliamentary users. Product is a multi-disciplinary function, and is responsible for developing, supporting and enhancing approximately 70 bespoke digital products used by Parliament.
