  • Review teammates' pull requests with useful comments
  • Write, test and refactor code in your team's main language
  • Investigate production bugs using logs and monitoring dashboards
  • Join daily stand-ups and sprint planning
  • Document how your features work for support and new developers

Must-haves

  • A computer science or IT qualification, or a portfolio that proves you can build
  • You can explain technical choices to non-technical people
  • Commercial experience in at least one of PHP, C#, Java, Python or JavaScript
  • Good SQL and understanding of relational databases
  • Stable internet and a quiet workspace for remote days

Nice if you have

  • Docker and Kubernetes experience

What's in it for you
