About our Team


We are strengthening our software engineering team to modernise our existing application stack, powering one of LexisNexis IP’s flagship products,

Your engineering team will be mainly based in the UK and Germany. You will also work closely with existing application team, as well as with a broader range of stakeholders distributed across the UK, Germany, Netherlands and the USA.

  • Helping to build AWS platform infrastructure with CDK, such as NodeJS/Python Lamda’s.
  • Assisting in refactoring the existing application.
  • Writing and reviewing portions of detailed specifications for the development of system components of moderate complexity.
  • Participate in development processes, coding best practices, and code reviews.
  • Operating in various development environments (Agile, Kanban, etc.) while collaborating with stakeholders.



Requirements


  • Demonstrate experience working with modern React frameworks.
  • Experience with AWS or similar cloud providers, including knowledge on running cost effective serverless architecture.
  • Understand Software Engineering techniques and processes
  • Desirable, but not essential, experience with GraphQL, or similar API schemas.
  • Any experience with one or more of the following would be beneficial C#, SQL, Python or JavaScript.
  • Strong interpersonal, communication, and presentation skills applicable to a wide audience.



Work in a way that works for you
