Job summary
Join our Technology Team as a Full-Stack Software Developer, where you'll design, build, and maintain secure, end-to-end solutions supporting critical business and clinical systems. You'll work across the full stack--developing responsive web applications, robust back-end services, and data processes that transform and present information in clear, user-friendly formats.
You'll help deliver scalable applications and integrations connecting enterprise platforms and identity systems. This includes building RESTful APIs, automating workflows, and ensuring data is exchanged securely and reliably. Security is embedded throughout the development lifecycle, and you'll apply secure coding practices while collaborating with infrastructure and security teams.
You'll work with SQL databases, server-side technologies (C#, .NET, Python, or Node.js), modern JavaScript frameworks (such as React or Astro), and cloud platforms including Azure and AWS. You'll contribute to architecture, CI/CD, monitoring, and performance optimisation to keep systems resilient and production-ready.
We're looking for a proactive developer with strong full-stack experience, solid SQL and API knowledge, and an understanding of authentication patterns such as JWT and OAuth. If you enjoy solving complex problems, improving systems, and delivering secure digital solutions that make a real impact, we'd love to hear from you.
