Oscatel is hiring a JavaScript Developer to design and implement full stack solutions for a range of projects that underpin operational services for mobile carriers.

 

We're an established software provider that's bringing development back in house. We're building modular, scalable, solutions - many of which will become long-term products - mainly around operational support services for carriers, and all of which we will help you get to grips with.

 

The domain entails data-intensive services where security, data integrity and uptime are key. This presents lots of interesting design and coding challenges, gaining valuable skills as we build and integrate our technology. 

 

You can anticipate a mix of well-defined greenfield projects, initially focused on implementing the application and front ends for a large customer deliverable, along with substantial exploratory work as we validate concepts and build new solutions, maturing these into products. 

 

We offer a culture where you may work under your own initiative as part of a collaborative effort towards common goals. It's an opportunity to be a formative team member, and to grow and improve together.

  • Helping build the central data store, using Node.js
  • JavaScript consoles and dashboards for service admins
  • Representing comprehensive data from analytics and alerting tools
  • Selecting JavaScript frameworks and tools
  • Working towards adoption of containers and Kubernetes
  • Adopting GraphQL
  • Helping establish our development culture, methods and automation

 

We're looking for

  • Someone able to write code that's efficient, robust, documented and well tested
  • Strong JavaScript/TypeScript, accrued in a modern web application context
  • Familiarity with a current JS framework, and agnostic about framework choice
  • Readiness to adopt Node.js, plus Kendo UI/Sencha/similar
  • User empathy, web service writing skills, and solid SQL/MySQL
  • Ability to understand complex requirements, to uphold security of sensitive data and to conform to best practices
  • Someone considering junior or mid level full stack JavaScript jobs in Bristol such as: JavaScript Developer | Node.js Developer | Full Stack Developer | React Developer | Vue Developer | TypeScript Developer etc.

 

Current ecosystem - we'll help you get up to speed

JavaScript, TypeScript | Node.js | Elasticsearch | RabbitMQ | MySQL | Docker | AWS | Linux | Atlassian stack

 

Salary and benefits

  • £30,000 - £55,000+ we're keeping an open mind
  • 25 days holiday, plus public holidays and a day for your birthday
  • Flexible working - tell us what you need
  • One/two days' remote working each week, once up to speed
  • Modern serviced office with a canteen, showers, bike parking
  • Personal development plan that you can shape, with budget for related training/certifications
