As a software engineer at Dawson Andrews, you'll be responsible for developing high-quality solutions. You'll work as part of a team and report to a Project or Delivery Manager. It's a fast-paced environment, so it is important for you to make sound, reasoned decisions. As a key role within the team, you will also work closely with clients on a regular basis to agree on technical designs (functional and non-functional), advising clients and managers on estimated effort, technical implications of user stories and user journeys.

You will continuously share knowledge and mentor the team around you. You'll do this whilst learning about new technologies and approaches, with room to learn, develop and grow.

Essential Requirements:

    - Good knowledge of PHP and the general toolset of full-stack development
    You'll be working across the stack, so a good facility with modern frontend development (Vue.js/React, ES6, modern CSS techniques like flexbox, etc.) is essential as well as database technologies such as MySQL and/or Postgres.
    - Proficient in designing, building, testing and maintaining modern applications.
    - Experience in applying best practices and patterns in relation to coding, security, testing, scalability and performance.
    - Ability to clearly communicate technical designs in conversations, presentations and documentation.
    - Experience explaining non-functional concerns to clients and building this into technical designs.
    - Ability to take a customer's specification and define a well-scoped solution by asking the right questions, both with the customer and your team.
    - Experience with technical estimation, planning and user story creation.

    - Working knowledge of cloud platforms, especially AWS
    - Good understanding of Craft CMS and its plugin ecosystem
    - Experience with Tailwind CSS
    - Experience with CI/CD techniques
    - Experience balancing technical decisions with meeting the user needs within commercial constraints
