Job Description
Job description
Relocation assistance to the North West is available!
Are you a hyper-intelligent weirdo software developer, who wants to work with a company full of hyper-intelligent weirdo software developers?
Strange question, huh?
But if the answer is "yes" (the "weirdo" bit is optional, but that's how some of them describe themselves at least - weird is good!), then read on....
BUT...you need to be humble. Humility is a pre-requisite. Certainly you need to be aware of your own brilliance, but your obsessions need to be learning what you don't know and improving, rather than telling the world what you do know and settling. If this is you, then we know a company that will be your natural home. And "home" it will be - or home-from-home, at least. The company are unashamedly onsite (Greater Manchester) only, but they way they work, treat their team members, and generally "tick" totally justifies this approach.
So the company is an SME, specialising in both SaaS and product in their particular market. Software development is at the heart of all they do, and because of that, they will only consider the best people: best academically, best culturally, and best in terms of talent and achievement. It's probably the highest bar we've ever worked with, and you may well have to adjust your CV to be considered. They want to know your university grades (and you'll be asked about your A-levels too), your attitudes to work and life, your aspirations, what you feel you bring to the table, and in particular, your achievements. And you need to be clear! "Involved in..." won't cut it! "I designed...", "I built..", these are the things they will want to see.
You need to be that unicorn mix of a genuine self-starter, but someone who works in a team and genuinely thrives on the interaction and togetherness that a team environment brings. They are flat in structure, agile to the nth degree (and you'll need to demonstrate that you understand agile and how it speaks to your soul), and as far as they are concerned, everyone is a potential if not actual leader.
What we're looking for? That's easy. It's software developers with amazing talent and experience in either a Java stack, and/or a .NET stack. That's it! They don't choose people with particular experience for a particular role. They find excellence, hire it, and put it to work on the most beneficial projects. You'll get cross-training, mentoring, and agile support, and you'll be surrounded by hyper-intelligent, hyper-supportive, and emotionally-intelligent people. (Emotional intelligence is just as much as a pre-requisite as Java or .NET). They will consider all experience levels from 2 years upwards. But they're looking for people with a record of making things.
The rewards? Where do I start?! The list is pages long, far too long for me to list, but includes everything from medical insurance through to free lunches prepared freshly by bespoke chefs, every single day. Salaries are over market rate. We don't usually like to post without a salary, but it really does depend on experience and circumstance. But we guarantee that as long as your requirements are reasonable, you won't be refusing the offer on the grounds of salary.
This is only an over-view that barely does justice to the quality of opportunity presented here by our client.
If you're an applicant who will require visa sponsorship, please note that this is only possible for the most exceptional of exceptional candidates! In order to be successful you will need to show us what puts you head and shoulders above candidates for whom this effort and expense will not be necessary.
