Job description

D&G is on the journey to become a digital and cloud first business and is creating compelling digital experiences for our B2B and B2C clients and customers. This opportunity is remote based and some travel into Wimbledon as and when required

Our digital capability is based around a robust cloud strategy and is primarily built around AWS. We are setting up teams in small, empowered squads that can provide end to end solutions and work across domains. The expectation is that once this capability is proven, it can scale up and leadership opportunities become available to the members of the seed team.

The AWS full stack developer is expected to bring expertise in one or more areas of AWS technology – Lambda functions, Glue, AppFlow, EventBridge, MQ, Aurora, DynamoDB and others. Development skills using strongly typed languages like Typescript and using front-end development frameworks like Angular/React, back end development using node.js, and python for data and scripting.

The skills should also involve writing DevOps automation, writing tests for test driven development, as well as creating pipelines and using zero-touch CI/CD techniques.

  • Be responsible for ongoing improvements in productivity by leveraging commonly understood patterns.
  • Write automated tests to assess suitability of built components and compliance to D G standards on performance, security and other non-functional requirements.
  • Contribute and adhere to guidance and standards for exception management and error handling frameworks to deliver a good user experience.
  • Collaborate with other developers, architects and product owners to create robust end-to-end solutions.
  • To act as a positive role model to colleagues, partners and customers.
