About Us:
I am currently working with an insurance organisation that are in the process of building a new team of mobile engineers to lead the re-development of their mobile applications and offerings as they move away from their monolith platform. As they move away from this platform, they will need to re-engineer all of their web and mobile applications for the existing user base, without disrupting access to critical services for their customers.

As they look to build a cross-functional engineering team, they are looking for people who want to build something that really serves their customers, can leave a lasting impact, and to be involved from the very early stages of a mobile app build, right through to delivery of a finished product.

• Extensive experience developing and releasing mobile applications on both Android and iOS.
• Using native tooling like Kotlin, Java, Swift, and Objective-C, as well as frameworks such as React Native.
• Familiarity with accessibility standards for web and mobile, such as WCAG 2.1.
• Expertise in DevOps practices, including creating CI/CD pipelines with GitHub/GitLab and tooling such as Artifactory and HashiCorp Vault.
• Ability to write automated unit, component, integration, and functional tests.
• Ability wo work closely with QA teams to facilitate integration and end-to-end testing of complex systems.
• Experience converting UI designs into mobile app components.
• Experience integrating with various back-end APIs and CMS systems.
• Experience with accessible web applications built using React and JavaScript.

Key Responsibilities:

• Implement new mobile applications, systems, and integrations.
• Adherence to industry best practices and architectural principles.
• Take ownership of the design and implementation of software and CI/CD pipelines to solve complex problems.
• Play a pivotal role in our project team, using an agile development framework.
• Document all design and development work.
• Actively participate in code reviews – both as the reviewer and the reviewee to ensure coding quality and standards are maintained.
• Ensure that any software produced meets security requirements and standards.
• Ensure that any software produced meets accessibility expectations.
• Collaborate with Business Analysts, Project Leads, and other IT teams to resolve issues and ensure solutions are viable and fit for purpose.
• Work closely with the Quality Assurance team to ensure effective test coverage early in the development cycle, utilising a shift-left approach.
