You will have helped support your team with difficult problems and be happy helping junior developers. You will have skills in OOP and be comfortable programming for the web with a back-end language, working with industry standard technologies and development tools, and methodologies such as agile, pair programming and code reviews. We're not concerned with what language/s you use, as long as you have experience and are happy to learn our own languages (PHP, Node.js and JavaScript). Whether you use C, C++, C#, Ruby, Java, Python or Swift – the most important thing is that you're a friendly, motivated team player who wants to help people. We're all about changing lives, and hope you are too. You must be eligible to live and work in the UK. Software Developer Trainer - About Us: We are all about people.
