Our client is a digital consultancy that is hiring a Full Stack Developer to build citizen-facing services for a major central government department. The services go out to millions of people who have no alternative provider, so the bar on accessibility, resilience and testing is set properly and held to.

You'll write Node.js and TypeScript behind Express REST APIs, with Angular on the front end and Jest tests going in alongside the code. You need active SC clearance and you'll be asked to evidence it.

• JavaScript and TypeScript: excellent working knowledge
• Express.js: building REST APIs
• Angular: commercial development experience
• Jest: automated testing
• GitLab CI/CD

• Agile delivery: you know how it works in practice

• Terraform and Docker
• MongoDB and Amazon DocumentDB
• Kafka with Confluent Schema Registry
• CloudWatch for logging and metrics

• Nunjucks templating

Nice to Haves

• Serverless architectures, designed and run end to end
• Kubernetes (K8s), ECS/Fargate, ECR, EKS
• Key Management Service (KMS) and secure key handling
• X-Ray and Dynatrace for tracing and monitoring
• Monorepo development
• Public sector or GDS-aligned delivery

Why Join / Projects
You're joining a consultancy of around 100 people, small enough that your voice carries. The thing people there consistently point to is being listened to: put forward a better approach and you get a proper hearing on it, whatever your title.

The work itself is national infrastructure in software form. You'll build services that millions of people use, often at the point where they need them most, which sets a quality bar most commercial products never have to meet.
