Software Development Manager

Data Engineering / Software Development Manager

Location: Remote – with occasional (once a month or so) travel into Warwickshire (your team is mainly UK remote).

Salary: £60 – £75k + 10% bonus, pension and healthcare

 

This company are sitting on a goldmine of data. Their customers are going crazy for it, and though they’ve been around for years, the international opportunity for their services is growing and, in many cases, completely untapped.

They have ambitious plans to offer their services to new markets and territories as well as develop new data-focused products.

They already have a very talented software engineering team, but you’ll be the person the developers look to for leadership. The one who, when a deadline needs to be hit, come into your own, leading the team, ensuring they have everything they need and that they enjoy the right balance of accountability and freedom to do what they do best.

In addition to managing the team, you will be responsible for delivering software projects, technical architecture, security and the ongoing integration of new technology and tooling.

You will join one of the country’s fastest-growing companies, but also one with a ‘green’ soul who is doing good in the world and helping us all towards a more sustainable future.

You’ll have a strong Cloud / Data-Engineering background using the Microsoft stack. You’ll appreciate Agile/DevOps best practices (inc. industry standard CI/CD tools), with experience in delivering systems built on MS Azure, along with an appreciation of containerisation using Docker and Kubernetes.

You may be working as a team leader, looking to take that first step into management, or are already a Data Engineering / Software Development Manager wanting to work somewhere more ambitious (the projects they have lined up might make you drool…if you’re into growth!).

Although not a huge company, they pack a punch for their size, investing in leading technologies (such as Mulesoft) and ensuring their developers have the best tools and kits to deliver amazing outcomes.

You’ll like a role where there’ll be pressure to get things done, but also lots of autonomy, where work-life balance is a real thing and where your boss is a great human being, and someone who will always look out for you.

You’ll be free to work from home with occasional (once a month or so) travel into Warwickshire (your team is mainly UK remote).

On offer is a salary of up to £60 – £75k + 10% bonus, pension and healthcare. And they will look after you once you join – people stick around here!

This is an exclusive role to Rebel, so please apply safely in the knowledge you will get a guaranteed, personal reply. Alternatively, google us and give us a call (ask for Jules!)

Director of Software Engineering

Director / Head of Software Engineering

Location:   Remote, with travel into the West Midlands / Warwickshire a couple of times a month or so on average.

Salary:  Up to £90k + 20% bonus, pension and healthcare as well as other perks.

 

One of the UK’s most successful sustainability companies has asked us to help them find a standout Director of Software Engineering as they go through a period of change and gear up for international expansion.

The company are flying high right now, having grown continually over the past decade and now looking at further growth globally into new territories whilst developing new products and services within the sustainability sector.

They have a longstanding team of software engineers, product managers and industry consultants, but having been integrated into a larger group a few years ago, the leadership of the software engineering function has fluctuated as people have moved upwards and onwards.

The company are now ready to hire two dedicated roles –  a Director / Head of Software Engineering (this role) and also a Software Delivery Manager (who will work with you, directly line managing the dev team).

In this Head of Software Engineering role you’ll work with the senior group leadership team, internal product managers and the wider business to grow and maintain the technology that underpins their core services.

They are determined to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to technology and you’ll be leading the teams in building their flexible, scalable, modern platforms.

The role requires a senior software engineering leader who is no longer hands-on but is able to command respect and authority through their insight and track record.  You’ll be supported by a technical software development manager who will manage the engineering team on a day-to-day basis, but you’ll be responsible for engaging suppliers, determining resources, managing budgets and working with the senior leadership team to tie business objectives to technology outcomes.

You’ll have worked in a similar mid-sized (200 person +) company and will have managed the development of high volume/availability data and software platforms, preferably based on the Microsoft stack (.NET, Azure, Microsoft Dynamics CRM etc.).

As an experienced senior manager, you’ll be used to being the voice of software engineering within the business, ensuring cultural, technical and structural alignment.  You’ll be a leader who inspires and brings the best out of your team whilst being able to manage ongoing commercial, security, regulatory and quality/compliance considerations.

The business is known to be somewhere that takes care of its people and gives them a chance to show what they can do and to progress.  They want to build on this culture of low attrition and progression by hiring you, someone who is able to combine building engineering cultures that people love working within whilst still being absolutely determined to hit deadlines and business objectives.

The role will be full-on and challenging, but you’ll be supported by forward-thinking peers and you will have people to lean on whilst you settle in.

The role will be largely based from home with travel into the West Midlands / Warwickshire a couple of times a month or so on average.

On offer is a base salary of up to £90k + 20% bonus, pension and healthcare as well as other perks.

If the role could be of interest please apply for a guaranteed personal reply or call us (Google Rebel Recruiters for the number!) and ask for Mica :)

GreenTech Lead Developer

GreenTech Lead Developer – ReactJS, NodeJS, PostgreSQL, CICD
Location: Fully remote – UK, Kenya (Nairobi), Senegal or Belgium.

Salary: £55K (+12% pension, private healthcare and more)

Are you a senior or lead developer that has the frontend of applications for breakfast and the backend for dinner, but who also enjoys integration that go smack in the middle as a lunchtime snack?

Maybe you have a particular passion for building and implementing bespoke data driven software, while your ABSOLUTE GREATEST desire would be to contribute to our world’s biodiversity protection – picture a knight riding a geospatial horse.

There is a web platform which you’ll take ownership of, enhancing it with new features and scaling up as new partner organisations come onboard. Your efforts will be the principal focus of the organisation: a global database where geospatial and species data is exchanged, all in the name of conservation.

Here is where that desire to contribute to our planet’s wellbeing in a meaningful way comes in, as there is a great need to expand this platform.

This might involve some DevOps and work with cloud systems, contributing to architecture and design of the platform moving forward and leading Agile ceremonies, some resource management, coaching a fullstack developer and assigning tasks, delivery estimations etc.

Knowledge of NodeJS, ReactJS and SQL – in all its forms – will be your trusted companions, while experience with containers, automation, CI/CD pipelines and cloud computing will serve you well.

This platform will be a key development aspect for this global organisation and hundreds of their partners over the next 5 years. This will allow for great learning opportunities with support in training both formal and informal.

Alongside your tech savvy knightly charm, you will ideally be comfy sitting in occasional meetings. You’ll sit on a steering committee once for month for ~1 hour, support colleagues who attend conferences / events so they can help fundraise or find new partners or users to integrate with and advocate for the work you’re contributing to.

So if you fancy yourself as a lady knight, a non-gender specific knight or any kind of other knight in leafy or perhaps scaly armour, please apply, call, or email us to find out more and for a guaranteed, personal reply!

GreenTech Senior Developer – Javascript OR Ruby on Rails

**  Working Visa Available for this Role  **

GreenTech Software Developer – Javascript OR Ruby on Rails

Location: Cambridge, flexible – quarterly office visits, maybe fully remote.

Salary:  Up to £44K (+12% pension, healthcare and more)

Biodiversity is taking a beating at the hands of human expansion.

There are lots of ways technology can be utilised to help, rather than hinder, nature and our environment to prevent mass extinctions and nature loss.

This organisation work with governments, institutes, companies and orgs globally to build and implement solutions that improve outcomes.

Maintaining critical databases and expanding data services to deliver detailed insights and modelling. Or building tools for niche purposes, such as utilising remote sensors to track the growth of reforestation and using Geographic Information Systems to improve planning efficiency.

Governments are scrambling to understand how valuable biodiversity is and how it intersects with their economic plans, questioning whether a diverse forest is more commercially or socially valuable than an oil rig or palm oil plantation. How do you even measure that?

The aim [of the organisation] is to be more proactive in creating software and services that others can use and feed into to better deliver on their goals.

That means being more proactive in delivering software, websites, and mobile apps and coaching or supporting their somewhat junior team to avoid technical debt and reach go-live for various projects on time, enabling people to make the needed change.

A lot of their projects have geospatial and mapping elements, so experience with GIS tools and PostgreSQL is handy. Their software is built with Ruby on Rails and Javascript, VueJS and Nuxt specifically, so experience with one of those is a must. They also use Python, MySQL, GraphQL MapBox, Esri and Github, working in an Agile environment

As a senior dev, you’ll have a small team of 2-6 people whom you support, depending on your preferences, coaching them and doing code reviews, pair programming and testing so they can see and learn from how you and others tackle problems.

You’ll get involved in some more complex tasks like discussions on architecture and tooling, estimations for projects, resource management, and assigning tasks within your team.

They’ll support you in your development, too. It’s not just about what you can give, they’ll ask what you need to progress too. Whether that’s paying for courses, textbooks, or conference tickets – if you think of it, they’ll consider it, genuinely.

You’ll work with scientists, researchers, and interesting stakeholders to design, build and implement tools. The people here are exceptionally passionate so they will chart their own path where possible. You’ll facilitate some of that and be able to do the same.

If you’re serious about saving our planet this is definitely a role you should apply for.

What are you waiting for? 

PHP Laravel Contractor

Role:  PHP Laravel Contractor

Location:  Leicester office, full flexibility on whether you work fully remote/ hybrid/ office-based.

Duration:  3 months, rolling (likely to be up to 1 year)

Rate:  Up to £450/ day, Outside IR35

Start date:  Immediately!

 

If PHP is your love language, this is the role for you!

Are you a PHP Developer whose go-to framework is Laravel? Have you worked in an AWS cloud and DevOps environment? Do you like JavaScript/ TypeScript, specifically with Vue?

If your answers to the above questions are ‘HECK YEH!’ (or some variation) then please read on and apply for this role; it’s got your name written all over it!

I am looking for you to join a cracking little company in Leicester, who have a cool, quirky, and rather unique business that needs you.

They have an application that needs some love, care, and attention from you to make it even better!

You’ll be part of a small team of really passionate and friendly engineers, who love collaborating just as much as you do. Communication skills are paramount in this role, as with any small company, everyone needs to be of the same mindset of helping each other, getting stuck in whatever task may come your way, and asking for help yourself if/ when you need it.

Tech-wise, you’ll be using a mix of different tools, languages, frameworks, and concepts to get the job done, including OO PHP, Laravel, JavaScript/ TypeScript, Vue, AWS, GraphQL, and maybe some Node and React.

You can work how you want to, as long as you get stuff done! So either fully remote, hybrid, or office-based; they trust everyone to know what works best for them.

The initial contract will be for 3 months, on a rolling basis, and likely to extend quite far beyond that, so it’s a role you can really get stuck into!

If this sounds right up your street, apply now, or to find out more, drop me a line.

C# Developer

Role: C# .Net Core Developer with Angular and AWS

Location: Office is based in Sandiacre, Nottinghamshire, hybrid working with 2-3 days per week in the office.

Salary: Up to £60k

C# and ASP.Net (Core) are where you live.

You’re comfortable there; you got your foundations right at the start with good development practices, and have since built a strong and secure career by learning about handy tools such as dependency injection, microservices, containerisation, etc.

You use cloud hosting like AWS to reduce your overheads and improve efficiencies.

For those mundane, repeatable tasks, you use design patterns, to make sure you do the same thing in the same way, every time, so your house doesn’t fall down due to shoddy, unpredictable work.

Whilst you use modern tech, practices, and techniques, you have been in the development game for long enough to be able to read, understand, and convert an older codebase (.Net 4, MVC, etc) to a new, shiny version (.Net Core, CosmosDB, AWS etc) seamlessly. You know what the newer stuff does best, and ways to incorporate that in the rewrite.

Finally, you’re great at understanding what your users want out of your solution because you’ve got great communication skills and ask the RIGHT questions! Doesn’t matter if they’re internal or external- you are good with people.

Now, you need a new role to put all this knowledge and experience to great use, which – if you hadn’t guessed already – is where this role comes in.

If the above describes you, this is the role for you.

The company is small and nimble; they can make development choices quickly and efficiently, everyone knows each other well, and are intelligent people that like to have a laugh along the way!

They are quite a young company, so even its legacy code isn’t very old. They make a point of leveraging the best tech out there to make sure their products are the best they can be well-written, functional, and reliable.

They have a flagship product and an additional one; this role will initially be seeing your work on the additional one; liaising with internal stakeholders (the product’s current users) to do a revamp of the codebase to bring it up to the latest iteration of .Net Core 6, improve its functionality, and to use a more appropriate database. You will then most likely work on the flagship product, which uses .Net Core 4/5, AWS, Microservices, Docker, etc.

If this sounds right up your street, apply now or drop me a line to find out more about your new role!
