The role
As a Senior Application Developer - Integration, you will deliver robust, secure application solutions aligned to business needs, technical standards and practices. You’ll work across the development lifecycle, applying your technical expertise to deliver change into relevant applications and platforms. Furthermore, you will:
Deliver technical solutions with a strong focus on security, reusability, performance and ongoing supportability.
Partner with project teams, architects and business stakeholders to translate functional and non-functional requirements into detailed technical solutions.
Deliver solutions using iPaaS (Azure), C#, .NET Core and SQL, including unit testing. Improve application delivery by designing, building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, tools and scripts across the SDLC.
Deliver root cause analysis of incidents and problems, working across business and technology teams.
Support code quality and development standards through pull request reviews and feedback to peers.
Work closely with Technical Leads to understand the technical direction, standards and priorities, and apply their guidance consistently in day-to-day delivery.
Contribute to architecture and design discussions led by Technical Leads, offering practical input from hands-on development experience and helping shape secure, scalable and supportable solutions.
Proactively identify security vulnerabilities, design gaps and operational risks and raise them early with Technical Leads, along with clear, well-reasoned recommendations and options.
Keep Technical Leads informed of progress, risks, dependencies and blockers and escalate issues promptly rather than waiting for them to become incidents.
Collaborate effectively within the team and across projects and share knowledge and support peers, including more junior developers and external resources, in line with the practices set by Technical Leads.
Take ownership of agreed technical outcomes and work with Technical Leads to resolve complex problems, including during incidents and urgent deployments.
