Senior Software Engineer
Description
Who are you?
You love coding to the brink of obsession! The code you write is clear, easy to maintain and unit test. You care about the user and you get a kick out of building features that they love using. You excel in a collaborative and agile environment where we deploy continuously, measure everything and take responsibility to diagnose and fix what breaks.
Does this sound like you? Then read on.
Who are we?
Raygun’s cloud-based platform and tools enable software development organisations and teams to deliver exceptional value to businesses, and exceptional experiences to customers. Raygun helps developers stay in front of application development and performance issues before they impact on end users.
This could be you...
You will be involved in the day-to-day development of the Raygun product suite, working mostly in the back-end code. You will be working largely with a C# code base but because we build developer tools that support all languages, knowledge of other languages is highly advantageous.
Our team is data driven and very collaborative; this means you will need to write clean and scalable code and work collaboratively with everyone to get the features deployed. We are a very supportive team and you’ll be given opportunities to learn and excel, but also be prepared to be challenged by designers and developers who care deeply about the Raygun products.
Requirements
A good candidate for this position:
- Has a solid background and commercial experience in the Microsoft stack.
- Knows how to build great web applications.
- Writes maintainable, testable and clear code, and dives in to make existing code even better.
- Has good communication skills and is self-motivated.
A great candidate for this position:
- Can solve a problem in a number of programming languages.
- Keeps up with new technologies, trying many of them out by building apps and coding, just for fun.
- Can lead a small team of developers to deliver features on time and to spec
- Helps mentor junior developers and teach good coding practices
Benefits
At Raygun:
- You’ll work closely with a team of genuinely nice people, who will support you.
- You’ll get to up-skill and learn new things from other team members, and share your knowledge.
- There’s a great team culture. We’d love you to join us for ‘Beers-and-ideas’, indoor football, hack days and board gaming. There are free team lunches on Fridays and a range of healthy snacks. There are company-wide quarterly themes with celebratory dinners/events out as a team.
- You’ll have flexibility about working from home, if you need to.
- You can choose your set up: Mac or PC, the decision is yours.
- You’ll get a competitive salary.
