Database and Web Application Developer

Summary

We’re recruiting from graduate engineer to senior consultant for a role where you’ll be designing and coding data-driven IoT application developments. You’ll be exposed to the real-time constraints of servicing IoT endpoints, the associated database schema, and the look and feel of the end user web page design. Projects might include everything from single board PC web applications to servicing many hundreds of thousands of IoT devices on complex cloud deployments. Apply now and join a team that works with leading-edge technology at the forefront of today's hardest engineering problems.

Would you like to work on novel healthcare solutions, smart city technology, advanced robotic systems or sensors for autonomous drones? What about mobile ad-hoc radio networks or airfield radar? How do you fancy underwater or aircraft-based sensor and communications systems? These are all current projects at Plextek, and somewhere they all involve a database and web application user interface.

Our work is largely driven by technical development and innovation. One of the great advantages of working here is that no two projects are the same. If you are an enthusiastic, adaptable and motivated person who thrives on variety, enjoys learning new skills and facing exciting challenges then this is the place to be.

THE ROLE

We’re recruiting from graduate engineer to senior consultant for a role where you’ll be designing and coding data-driven IoT application developments. You’ll be exposed to the real-time constraints of servicing IoT endpoints, the associated database schema, and the look and feel of the end user web page design. Projects might include everything from single board PC web applications (think SQLite\DotNet Core web apps on a Raspberry Pi), to servicing many hundreds of thousands of IoT devices on complex cloud deployments (think MongoDB\MVC .NET framework on Microsoft Azure).

We’re looking for people with enthusiasm and capability across the full spectrum of server, database, and application technologies.  We’d like you to be excited by cloud deployments, virtualisation and containers, traditional RDBMS database engines, big data, and application and web development. We’re Microsoft-based, so experience with IoT protocols for server side C# and MVC web deployments is a big advantage. Client side, we’d love you to help us with JavaScript, JQuery, and Bootstrap for the creation of beautiful modern user interfaces.

We don’t of course expect you to know it all, but we do expect you to be capable, keen to learn, bring new ideas and technologies to us, and be happy to push yourself outside your comfort zone.

You must be comfortable participating in sales and project meetings with clients and able to generate technical responses to bids and tenders. You should have a good technical degree or an equivalent qualification and you should have genuine enthusiasm for problem solving.

THE REWARDS

In return, we offer a competitive package and a stimulating environment that will encourage you to be your best. We provide all the training, professional development and support that you need to complete your projects. We are a versatile business and are able to support career progression in many dimensions including technical, commercial and managerial.
