Technical Requirements (Essential)
- Relevant Experience: 7+ years of professional development experience, with a deep focus on WordPress CMS (custom themes, plugins, and headless implementations).
- Back-End Languages: Expert-level PHP and SQL. Proficiency in VBScript and Power Query for legacy system integration and data transformation.
- Front-End Stack: Expert JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML5, and CSS3.
- Databases: Strong experience with MS Aure SQL Server and MySQL.
Technical Requirements (Desirable)
- Frameworks & Languages: Working knowledge of Laravel, React, and Python.
- Data Management: Experience with Postgres, Redis, and Azure Cosmos DB.
- Modern Data Architecture: Exposure to Data Lake technologies such as Apache Iceberg, Delta Lake, Databricks or Azure OneLake.
- Cloud Hosting Platforms: AWS & Azure Native Solutions
- DevOps: Professional experience with GitHub.
Personal Attributes
- Small Business Mindset: You must be comfortable working in a flat structure where you are the primary technical owner.
- Resilience: Ability to manage shifting priorities and maintain focus under pressure.
- Communication: Able to explain technical constraints to non-technical stakeholders clearly.
- Self-Starter: You don’t wait for a ticket; you identify problems and build solutions.
What we offer
- Annual leave: 25 days, plus Bank Holidays
- Pension
- Security: Comprehensive Life Assurance.
- Health & Wellbeing: Employee Assistance Programme and a Rewards and Wellbeing Hub
- Growth: Opportunity to shape the technical roadmap of a data-insights leader.
