To supplement your learning you'll work within an agile delivery team and work collaboratively with the Product Owner, Scrum Master, Product Engineers & Test Automation Engineers to design and deliver quality software solutions that help us realise our Digital transformation ambitions.

What you'll be doing: • Working with a number of key technologies such as Salesforce, React and React Native • Building Azure hosted API's and microservices with C#, and interacting with SQL Server databases and external API's. • As part of your day-to-day development you'll work with Git to manage code, backlogs and pipelines (CI/CD) in Azure DevOps. • Follow agile programming practices such as test driven development and pair programming.

At AXA we’re adopting a Hybrid way of working, empowering our people to balance their time between home and office in a way that works best for them, their team and our customers. For this role, you will be expected in one of our AXA Health offices for collaborative working on an ad hoc basis.

This apprenticeship is all about maximizing your potential. You’ll be working with Insurance professionals providing you with every opportunity to thrive.

  • In AXA Health, we value your potential so we'll also consider applications from those with a more diverse range of qualifications who are passionate about pursuing a career as a Software developer and committed to completing the Level 4 apprenticeship in Software Development.
