Why this role matters

Voice has always been a key part of our business and the transition to IP based solutions has opened up opportunities for changing how everyone interacts with their services.

When you join us a Software Engineer you’ll have the opportunity to be a part of a team building these future services and helping to define how people consume these services.

You’ll be able to use your skills to simplfy how our customers connect with each other.

The role is for an enthusiastic, passionate senior software engineer responsible for taking BT forward.

You’ll be:

• Writing high performance, well tested code.

• Building pixel-perfect, buttery smooth UIs across both mobile platforms.
• Leverage native APIs for deep integrations with both platforms.
• Diagnose and fix bugs and performance bottlenecks for performance that feels native.
• Reach out to the open-source community to encourage and help implement mission-critical software fixes—React Native moves fast and often breaks things.
• Maintain code and write automated tests to ensure the product is of the highest quality.
• Debug issues in native app code.

We’ll also need these

• Git for source control
• Agile Development using Scrum and Jira
• CI and CD experience
• Knowledge of functional and object-oriented programming

• Knowledge of Microservice, Kubernetes and Cloud infrastructure.
