You’ll work within our DTS Products & Digital Capability team, collaborating with product, design, architecture, testing, business and operational stakeholders.

This role is ideal for someone who combines strong technical foundations with a passion for learning and solving business problems. You’ll be comfortable reaching out to stakeholders, understanding what they need, and turning ideas into practical solutions.

You’ll make a positive impact by:

  • Designing, building and maintaining full stack applications across the technology stack
  • Understanding business and operational problems and translating them into practical technical solutions
  • Working directly with business stakeholders to understand requirements, challenge assumptions and identify opportunities for improvement
  • Quickly developing beta versions, prototypes and proof-of-concepts to test ideas and demonstrate value
  • Providing pragmatic cost and effort estimates to support business decisions and prioritisation
  • Developing responsive, accessible and high-performing user interfaces
  • Building scalable back-end services, APIs and integration solutions
  • Contributing to CI/CD pipelines, automated testing and production releases
  • Explaining technical concepts and proposed solutions in simple, relatable terms to business and operational stakeholders

  • The ability to understand the business problem behind the technology requirement and identify and articulate an appropriate solution
  • Confidence engaging directly with business and operational stakeholders and proactively reaching out to understand their needs
  • The ability to communicate technical ideas clearly, using simple and relatable language for non-technical audiences
  • The ability to provide realistic cost and effort estimates and balance technical considerations with business priorities
  • Experience with technologies such as TypeScript, JavaScript, C#, Java, Python, Node.js, React, Angular, Vue or .NET
  • Experience designing secure, scalable REST, GraphQL or event-driven integrations
  • Practical experience with SQL and NoSQL databases
  • Knowledge of CI/CD, automated testing, containers and cloud services
